Presentation: Global pharmacovigilance networks - A regulator'sTGA Australia
Global pharmaceutical companies manufacture and distribute a broad portfolio of drug products in multiples regions and countries. The pharmacovigilance system must ensure safety data collection in compliance with local regulations, and consolidate all sources to ensure an ongoing monitoring of potential changes in benefit-risk profiles. It must also guarantee a timely communication to patients, prescribers and regulatory authorities. The complexity resides in the need for a dense network of local safety departments, a strong global organisation processing and analysing cases, and a reporting system ensuring compliance to heterogeneous regulatory requirements. Pfizer has one of the largest pharmacovigilance department among all global companies, and has established patient safety as a core priority. We will describe how pharmacovigilance is organised at Pfizer, global compliance and individual patient safety.

This presentation includes introduction to WHO International Drug Monitoring Program & its functions, Role of WHO in PV, Vigibase, regulatory terminology of ADR and evaluation of medication safety.
Pharmacovigilance (PV) is defined as the science and activities relating to the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problem. WHO established its Programme for International Drug Monitoring in response to the thalidomide disaster detected in 1961. Together with the WHO Collaborating Centre for International Drug Monitoring, Uppsala, WHO promotes PV at the country level. At the end of 2010, 134 countries were part of the WHO PV Programme. The aims of PV are to enhance patient care and patient safety in relation to the use of medicines; and to support public health programmes by providing reliable, balanced information for the effective assessment of the risk-benefit profile of medicines.

PREPARATION AND IN-VITRO EVALUATION OF ITRACONAZOLE LOADED NANOSPONGES FOR T...Mahewash Sana Pathan
Itraconazole is an imidazole derivative and used for the treatment of local and systemic fungal infections. It is a BCS Class II drug having very low solubility in water i.e. 1-4ng/ml. The oral use of Itraconazole is not much recommended as it has many side effects. The present research has been undertaken with the aim to develop a topical hydrogel formulation of Itraconazole loaded nanosponges to increase the solubility, permeability and stability of itraconazole. Itraconazole loaded nanosponge was prepared by emulsion solvent diffusion method by using different concentrations of ethyl cellulose as a polymer, Polyvinyl alcohol as surfactant and dichloromethane as cross linking agent. Physical characteristics of the nanosponges as well as the drug entrapment efficiency, percentage drug content, Percent yield, drug polymer compatibility, solubility studies of the nanosponges were investigated. Particle size analysis and surface morphology of nanosponges were performed. The scanning electron microscopy of nanosponges showed that they were spherical in shape and spongy in nature. Drug entrapment efficiency was found to be in the range of 42.75 % to 73.10 %. The optimized nanosponge formulation was loaded into hydrogel using carbopol 940 and studied for pH, viscosity, in vitro drug release. Of the nanosponge formulations prepared, F4 was found to show drug release of 70.62%. It was concluded that Itraconazole nanosponge hydrogel may have increased solubility and drug release

Microteaching is a unique model of practice teaching. It is a viable instrument for the. desired change in the teaching behavior or the behavior potential which, in specified types of real. classroom situations, tends to facilitate the achievement of specified types of objectives.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

2. ABSTRACT
• The safe use of medicines is perhaps the single most important criteria
that any regulatory authority within a given country has to ensure in order
both to protect the public health and the integrity of its health care
system. For the same purpose pharmacovigilance was established.
• According to WHO, Pharmacovigilance is the science and activities related
to the collection, detection, and assessment of ADR’s.
• It promotes the systematic, rational use and assures the confidence for
the safety of drugs. It improves patient care and safety.
• Significance of pharmacovigilance is growing as the patients or consumers
have become more responsive about the advantage and hazard of
medicines.
• Pharmacovigilance is a complex process and a robust system is essential to
undertake the activity.
• A good pharmacovigilance system will identify the hazard aspects in the
short period of time. This review tries to explain some basic principles,
history and developments, methods and some scope of this developing
field i.e. Pharmacovigilance in India.
3. Introduction
• The Indian pharmaceutical industry is valued at Rs. 90,000
crore & is growing at a rate of 12 -14% annually. Exports are
growing at a rate of 25% compound annual growth rate.
• The total exports of pharma products is to extent of Rs.
40,000 crore. India has also emerged as a hub for the clinical
trials and drug discovery and development. Further more and
more drug entities are being introduced which includes new
chemical entities. Pharma products, vaccines, dosage forms,
new routes of administration and new therapeutic claims of
existing drug moieties.
• Such rapid increase in introduction of new drug entities and
pharma products has led to monitoring of ADR’s for the
pharmaceutical products over a large population base. Every
drug has effects, some of them are known by the clinical trials
but still some are unknown even though the drug is in clinical
use.
4. Introduction
• Pharmacovigilance is more important for newer drugs as the
information obtained from the clinical trials is inadequate to
cover all aspects of the drug safety.
• India being a vast country with over 1.2 billion population
with vast ethnic variability, different disease patterns, genetic
variations, and practices of different system of medicines
require a standardized and robust program for collection of
adverse events data and for assuring patient safety.
• Pharmacovigilance is a very important and inseparable part of
clinical research. Both clinical trials safety and post-marketing
pharmacovigilance (popularly known as post marketing
studies or phase 4 clinical trials) are critical throughout the
product life cycle. With the reasonably high number of recent
high profile drug withdrawals, both the pharmaceutical
industry and various regulatory agencies across the globe
have raised the bar.
5. • According to WHO, Pharmacovigilance is defined as, “The
pharmacological science and activities concerned with the
detection, assessment, understanding and prevention of
adverse reactions to medicines or Pharmacovigilance is the
name given to the mechanisms and controls that together
map and ensure the safety of a medicine throughout its life
span – from test tube to patient.”
• Pharmacovigilance word is derived from two words
pharmakon (Greek for drug) and vigilare (Latin for to keep
Watch).
Introduction
6. Aim of Pharmacovigilance
• Expand precaution for patient.
• Increase public protection from the new products.
• To contribute the knowledge of value, detriment, efficiency
and hazard of medicines.
• Encourage edification and clinical training.
• Endorse healthy communication to the community.
• To promote rational and safe use of medicines.
7. Adverse Drug Reactions (ADR’s)
“ADR is any response to a drug that is noxious and
unintended and that occurs in doses used in man for
prophylaxis, diagnosis, therapy of disease or for modifications
of physiological functions.”ADR’s are of two types:
ADR’s
Type A ADR’s /
Augmented /
Attenuated or
normal
response ADR’s
Type B ADR’s /
Unpredictable
/ Bissare
response
8. Table no 1: Some known adverse effects

4 Aspirin/ Indomathacin Premature closure of ductus arteriosus.
5 Insulin Severe hypoglycemia.
6 Penicillin’s Hypersensitivity reactions.
9. History of Pharmacovigilance
Year Developments
1937 Death of more than 100 children due to toxicity of sulfanilamide.
1950 Aplastic anaemia reported due to chloramphenicol toxicity.
1961 Worldwide tragedy due to thalidomide toxicity.
1963 16th world health congregation recognize significant to rapid action on
ADR’s.
1968 WHO research project for international drug monitoring on pilot scale.
1996 Global standards level clinical trials initiated in India.
1997 India attached with WHO ADR’s monitoring program.
1998 Initiation of pharmacovigilance in India.
2002 67th National Pharmacovigilance Center established in India.
2004-05 India launched National Pharmacovigilance Program.
2009-10 PvPI started.
10. ADR’s reporting
• Adverse drug reaction reporting involves the receipt, triage,
data entering, assessment, distribution, reporting and
archeiving of adverse event data and documentation.
• The source of ADR’s report may include:
1. Spontaneous reports from healthcare professionals or
patients.
2. Solicited reports from patients support program
3. Report from clinical and post marketing studies.
4. Reports from literature sources
5. Reports from media (including social media and websites).
6. Reports reported to drug regulatory authorities.
11. There are four elements of ADR case
1. An identifiable patient.
2. An identifiable reporter.
3. A suspect drug.
4. An adverse reaction
• If one or more of these four elements is missing, the case is
not a valid ADR report.

13. Methods of Pharmacovigilance
1. Passive Surveillance
• Spontaneous reports
• Case series
• Stimulated Reporting
2. Active Surveillance
• Sentinal sites
• Drug event monitoring
• Registries
3. Comparative
observational studies
• Cross- sectional
studies
• Case – control studies
• Cohort studies
4. Targeted clinical
investigations
5. Descriptive studies.
14. Work flow and data processing in Pharmacovigilance
• Pharmacovigilance knowledge is built by accumulation of
individual case safety reports and their subsequent analysis.
• Increased knowledge further influences reporting which leads
to new data and better information.
• As shown in fig no. 1, data processing can be seen as a series
of loops, linked together in a chain.
• Data processing in pharmacovigilance is complex, the process
involve many players, from different settings and with
different interests, such as-
1. Data producers
2. Data collectors
3. Data custodians
4. Data output producers
5. Data consumers

17. International Collaborations
1. World health organization (WHO): More than 100
member nations have system in place.
2. International council on harmonization (ICH)
3. Council for International Organizations of Medical
Sciences (CIOMS): Is a part of WHO, is a globally
oriented think tank that provides guidance on drug
safety related topics through its working groups.
4. International Society of Pharmacovigilance (ISoP): This
is an international non-profit scientific organization,
which aims to foster pharmacovigilance both
scientifically and educationally.
18. Career opportunities in Pharmacovigilance
• Persons trained in Pharmacovigilance and clinical trials
research will found good job options in following:
1. Clinical research associate
2. Clinical research investigator
3. Study co-ordinator
4. Data manager
5. Regulatory affairs manager
6. Clinical trials auditor

19. CONCLUSION
Indian pharmaceutical industry is third largest industry in
terms of volume and thirteen largest in terms of value.
The market is dominated mainly by branded generic
drugs which contribute nearly 70-80% of the market.
Therefore we need a standard pharmacovigilance system
for the monitoring of ADR’s of drug and assuring patient
safety. Reporting of ADR after marketing should be
actively encouraged and should involve all those
concerned including doctors, pharmacists, nurses and
pharmaceutical companies.
