"The 10th Pharmacovigilance conference organized by Medicines for Europe[1]  is a unique event where key stakeholders gather with the aim of promoting patient safety and undertaking, to continue work towards a more efficient pharmacovigilance system. In the spirit of constructive cooperation, this event brings together representatives from the industry and regulators as well as healthcare professionals and patient organisations. It took place on January 25th of 2017 at the Radisson Blu Portman Hotel, 22 Portman Square, London W1H 7BG. UK."

"Industries provide sustainable access to high quality medicines for all European patients, for generic, biosimilar and value added medicines. Every single day, industries increase access to the best standard of care in all therapeutic areas.Industries provide sustainable access to high quality medicines for all European patients, for generic, biosimilar and value added medicines.

"Between 2005 and 2015, for the same budget, generic competition allowed twice as many patients access to medicines for key therapeutic areas such as diabetes, depression, epilepsy, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, asthma/COPD or gastro-intestinal disease.Between 2005 and 2015, for the same budget, generic competition allowed twice as many patients access to medicines for key therapeutic areas such as diabetes, depression, epilepsy, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, asthma/COPD or gastro-intestinal disease.."

"Biosimilar medicines have also increased access to treatment with complex biological medicines. For instance, the introduction of biosimilar filgrastim, used to treat the consequences of chemotherapy, increased patient access by 44% across Europe. Not only could more patients get access to this treatment but physicians were also able to use the medicine earlier in the treatment cycle, to the benefit of the patient."..

Sessions/Tracks

Track 1: Pre-Clinical and Clinical Trials

Clinical trials allow the drug to be tested for safety by different ethnic population. Due to the higher medical needs and increasing disease prevalence, developing countries are becoming a hub for clinical trial execution. The clinical trials market has been estimated to reach USD 14.2 billion in 2016 and is projected to reach around USD 22 billion by the year 2021, and the annual growth rate of (7.5%). There are additionally numerous clinical trials started by scholarly clinical scientists. Whether started by industry or by scholastic clinical examiners and research is frequently performed in national, European and overall consortia, which can be expansive ones. Clinical research brings up moral and security issues. Clinical research is exceedingly controlled. To encourage and coordinated efforts crosswise over fringes.

Track 2: Adverse Drug Reactions

Adverse drug reactions can be considered a form of toxicity or enhanced drug effects that occur during appropriate use (eg, when drug metabolism is temporarily inhibited by a disorder or another drug). In the US, 3 to 7% of all hospitalizations are due to adverse drug reactions. ADRs occur during 10 to 20% of hospitalizations; about 10 to 20% of these ADRs are severe. Incidence of death due to ADRs is unknown; suggested rates of 0.5 to 0.9% may be falsely high because many of the patients included had serious and complex disorders. Incidence and severity of adverse drug reactions vary by patient characteristics (eg, age, sex, ethnicity, coexisting disorders, genetic or geographic factors) and by drug factors (eg, type of drug, administration route, treatment duration, dosage, and bioavailability). Incidence is higher with advanced age and polypharmacy.
