Pharmaceutical companies are required to screen scientific literature on a regular basis and this comes with many challenges, such as handling large amounts of data, building search strings and integrating EMA MLM results. Out-sourcing literature screening to service providers reduces the workload for the PV-team, but how does it impact the literature management process overall? Maybe it results in decreased oversight and additional activities like audits and reconciliation? And what about building the search strategy?
During this webinar our PV expert, Dr. Joyce De Langen spoke about the following:
• The importance of literature management in Pharmacovigilance and the challenges.
• An evaluation of the benefits and risks of outsourcing literature management versus alternative solutions.
About the speaker:
Joyce de Langen, Ph.D has more than 10 years of experience in the domain of pharmacovigilance and drug safety. Through her work in the pharmaceutical industry, academia and regulatory authorities, Joyce has developed a broad perspective and knowledge in pharmacovigilance and drug safety.

Embase for pharmacovigilance: Search and validation March 22 2017Ann-Marie Roche
Scientific literature plays a critical role in Pharmacovigilance and Drug Safety workflows. Monitoring literature for mentions of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) is mandated by regulatory bodies, and marketing authorization holders (MAHs) that do not properly report ADRs can be subject to heavy fines. With an increasing volume of unstructured content to cover, along with rising labor costs, MAHs are looking for ways to make their literature monitoring more effective and efficient.
Abstract and indexing (A&I) databases play an important role in Literature Monitoring – due to the vast amount of scientific literature published daily – in order for MAH’s to locate specific articles or conference presentations that may be relevant for their products (for both benefit/risk analysis and ADR detection). Rather than reading all the literature, MAH’s create search strategies that identify the relevant records in A&I databases and execute the searches regularly. GVP module VI mandates that searches are done at least weekly, but many companies maintain a daily monitoring and review cycle.
In this webinar, Senior Product Development Manager Embase, Dr. Ivan Krstic discussed best practices for saving time, staying current, validating search strategies and mitigating risk in the face of these increasingly complex processes in literature monitoring

ICH Guidelines for Pharmacovigilance.pdfNEHA GUPTA
The "ICH Guidelines for Pharmacovigilance" PDF provides a comprehensive overview of the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) guidelines related to pharmacovigilance. These guidelines aim to ensure that drugs are safe and effective for patients by monitoring and assessing adverse effects, ensuring proper reporting systems, and improving risk management practices. The document is essential for professionals in the pharmaceutical industry, regulatory authorities, and healthcare providers, offering detailed procedures and standards for pharmacovigilance activities to enhance drug safety and protect public health.
Pharmacovigilance: Regulators’ Perspective on Proactive Risk Management, Chal...Bhaswat Chakraborty
The prescription drug sales have been growing globally at a rate of 12-20%, which is lucrative by any standards, especially when top companies’ total sales are approaching 25-40 billion USD a year. Such market forces create tremendous pressure on one side on the drug sponsors to launch their product as early as possible, and on the other hand on the significantly regulators to decide on the product safety for approval with a tremendous time constraint. In such a scenario, drug regulatory authorities in US, Europe and elsewhere have renewed their mandate to fortify the “safety” regulations so that the drugs released to the market are highly safe and effective. The FDA Amendment Act, 2007 (FDAAA) have now authorized FDA to significantly increase the user fees for safety initiatives and evaluations. The FDA initiatives include its authority to ask from a drug sponsor a Risk and Evaluation Mitigation Strategy (REMS) with a detailed risk minimization action plan. FDA can now require the sponsor to develop a comprehensive safety surveillance system as well. For each new drug, FDA will now also establish an internal committee for a safe use of this drug in pediatric population. Similar approaches and authorities have also been given to European drug regulatory agencies.
This presentation will take you through the current proactive risk management approaches used or proposed by the prominent regulatory agencies for both pre- and post- market safety surveillance of new drug and new drug products. It will also discuss the challenges and collaborative efforts of both regulators and industry to work with a multidisciplinary safety management system to identify and assess the risk signals as early as possible in drug development process. Further it will discuss the reporting and evaluation of this data such that it helps pre-market approval of the safest possible product and a transparent post-market surveillance plan.

How predictive models help Medicinal Chemists design better drugs_webinarAnn-Marie Roche
All scientific disciplines, including medicinal chemistry, are experiencing a revolution in unprecedented rates of data being generated and the subsequent analysis and exploitation of this data is increasingly fundamental to innovation. Using data to design better compounds is a challenge for Medicinal and Computational chemists.
The design of small-molecule drug candidates, encompassing characteristics such as potency, selectivity and ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity) is a key factor in the success of clinical trials and computer-aided drug discovery/design methods have played a major role in the development of therapeutically important small molecules for over three decades. These methods are broadly classified as either structure-based or ligand-based.
In this webinar our expert Dr. Olivier Barberan will discuss ligand-based methods and he will cover the following:
How to use only ligand information to predict activity depending on its similarity/dissimilarity to previously known active ligands.
- Discuss ligand-based pharmacophores, molecular descriptors, and quantitative structure-activity relationships and important tools such as target/ligand databases necessary for successful implementation of various computer-aided drug discovery/design methods in a drug discovery campaign.

Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

Navigating Challenges: Mental Health, Legislation, and the Prison System in B...Guillermo Rivera
This conference will delve into the intricate intersections between mental health, legal frameworks, and the prison system in Bolivia. It aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current challenges faced by mental health professionals working within the legislative and correctional landscapes. Topics of discussion will include the prevalence and impact of mental health issues among the incarcerated population, the effectiveness of existing mental health policies and legislation, and potential reforms to enhance the mental health support system within prisons.
The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services. These dimensions are used to evaluate, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to patients. A comprehensive understanding of these dimensions ensures that healthcare systems can address various aspects of patient care effectively and holistically. Dimensions of Healthcare Quality and Performance of care include the following; Appropriateness, Availability, Competence, Continuity, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Efficacy, Prevention, Respect and Care, Safety as well as Timeliness.
Explore our infographic on 'Essential Metrics for Palliative Care Management' which highlights key performance indicators crucial for enhancing the quality and efficiency of palliative care services.
This visual guide breaks down important metrics across four categories: Patient-Centered Metrics, Care Efficiency Metrics, Quality of Life Metrics, and Staff Metrics. Each section is designed to help healthcare professionals monitor and improve care delivery for patients facing serious illnesses.

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

Why searching scientific and medical literature?
‘…Scientific and medical literature is a significant source of information for the monitoring of
the safety profile and of the risk benefit balance of medicinal products, particularly in relation to
the detection of new safety signals or emerging safety issues…
Reference: Guideline on good pharmacovigilance practices (GVP): Module VI-Management and reporting of adverse events to
medicinal products
6. 6
Role of Literature in Pharmacovigilance
• Screening scientific & medical literature to identify single adverse drug
reactions or special situations
• Systematic review of scientific & medical literature for aggregated reporting
(PSURs, PBRERs, DSUR).
• Screening literature for signal detection and assessment of validated signals.
7. 7
Literature is the 4th largest source of AE reporting
Adverse events reported in literature can have a high impact — major drug recalls
(e.g., Vioxx, Baycol) were initiated by published adverse reactions.
Often overlaps with reports from health professionals

A. Good reporting Practice
Spontaneous case reports of adverse events submitted to the sponsor
and FDA, and reports from other sources, such as the medical
literature or clinical studies, may generate signals of adverse effects of
drugs. The quality of the reports is critical for appropriate evaluation
of the relationship between the product and adverse events. FDA
recommends that sponsors make a reasonable attempt to obtain
complete information for case assessment during initial contacts and
subsequent follow-up, especially for serious events, and encourages
sponsors to used train…
VI.B.1.1.2. Literature reports
The scientific and medical literature is a significant source of
information for the monitoring of the safety profile and of the risk
benefit balance of medicinal products, particularly in relation to the
detection of new safety signals or emerging safety issues. Marketing
authorization holders are therefore expected to maintain awareness of
possible publications through a systematic literature review of widely
used reference databases (e.g. Medline, Excerpta Medica or Embase)
no less frequently than once a week. The marketing authorization
holder should ensure that the literature review includes the use of
reference databases that contain the largest reference of articles in
relation to the medicinal product properties
Marketing authorization holders are therefore

Challenges in Literature screening for PV: Building the perfect search strategy?
Recall
Precision
• Balancing between recall and precision = balancing between
‘capturing all relevant information’ and ‘avoiding all noise’
• Ideally the goal would be to build a search strategy with high recall
with high precision
• In real-life the goal of building a search strategy is to keep precision
as high as possible while recall is maximized

Challenges in Literature screening for PV: Inspections and audits
• Increased attention of regulators for literature screening since introduction of GVP modules in
2012
• Proportion of major and minor findings related to literature screening has increased since 2012
But it is not only about ‘not missing articles:
– List of journals & reference databases
– SOP(s)
– Search strategy
– Integration of EMA MLM results in your companies workflow
– Local language journals
– Oversight CRO/Service Providers
– Traceability

Challenges in Literature screening for PV: EMA Medical Literature Monitoring
• EMA MLM Service: 300 active substances, 100 herbals
• Since launch (July, 2015) 115,550 literature references reviewed by EMA
• In total 1,464 Adverse Drug Reactions were identified, involving 756 individual patients

21. 21
Challenges in Literature screening for PV: Integrating EMA MLM Results into MAH’s
workflow
• MAHs should still fulfill reporting requirements outside EU
• MAHs are still responsible for literature screening for aggregated safety reporting
• MAHs are still responsible for monitoring scientific and medical publications in local language
journals
• MAHs need to integrate the dataflow resulting from the EMA MLM Service into their existing
workflow for literature management and ICSR-management
22. 22
Challenges in Literature screening for PV: Screening Foreign Language Literature
List of Local Language Journals
Do you know where to look to identify all relevant local language journals?
Are you sure the company’s list of local language journals is exhaustive?
24. 24
When does outsourcing helps?
• In times of high workload, and no additional in-house resources are available on short term
• When companies need to be flexible due to varying workloads
• Outsourcing approach of ‘pay as you go’ allows you to respond fully to regulatory obligations,
without the need of retaining a full pharmacovigilance team on the payroll
• The benefits of outsourcing include reduced costs because less effort is needed for staff
recruitment, management and training. With stricter regulatory requirements, the hiring of
experienced safety personnel has become highly competitive.
