  • Aggregate Reports Management

Benefit Risk Evaluation Reports (PBRERs) and Periodic Safety Update Reports (PSURs) are a valuable source of pharmacovigilance data for the competent authorities. The MAHs should review the safety profile of their products and ensure that the Summary of Product Characteristics and Package Leaflet are up to date. The competent authorities place great importance on compliance with periodic reporting.

At iSafety we have years of experience in planning, write-ups and submission of safety reports. We help companies to meet their needs within the defined time frames.

- PBRER/PSUR strategy and procedures

- Pharmacovigilance Physician review

- Management of PSUR reporting requirements

- Training of Client personnel in PBRER/PSUR handling, management and reporting

  • Signal Detection and Analysis

With the ever increasing scrutiny by regulatory authorities and public, the companies need to strengthen their signal management systems. The expectations for rapid identification and prompt management of emerging drug safety issues have grown significantly.

Signal detection is a key component of pharmacovigilance and the whole process of risk/benefit evaluation depends on the effectiveness of signal management system.

The Competent Authorities can request these documentations at any time which requires the proactive safety evaluation and reporting processes to be working efficiently.

iSafety's advanced proprietary proactive signal management system.
