Thanks to everyone on the great feedback we have received on this blog series focused on pharmacovigilance best practices for clinical and early post-approval biopharma companies. We've discussed discussed the importance of understanding reporting and submission to FDA, taking control of your pharmacovigilance software and creating a shared services model with your CRO.
The simplicity that software brings to pharmacovigilance creates a shared services model that empowers the sponsor to maintain proper oversight of drug safety while enabling the CRO to implement the same model at scale. Next generation, cloud-based SaaS signal management platforms exist to manage both clinical and post-marketing safety case reports in a GVP IX compliant way that can fit into any budget, in any size company.
Signal management software creates efficiencies and mitigates regulatory risk. Both a sponsor organization’s business and IT leaders are encouraged to prioritize evaluation, selection, and implementation of this capability as early as possible to establish a foundation of organizational success.
Likewise, business and IT executives within CROs should look at next generation signal management, as well as signal detection software to drive a shared services model that will better support their clients’ needs, provide needed flexibility, and easily scale.
