Session Chair(s)

Principal Scientific Enablement Director, Scientific Enablement and Processes, Genentech, A Member of the Roche Group, United States
This forum will consider three aspects of signal detection which are not frequently emphasized, but which have a significant influence on the overall quality of pharmacovigilance for a product — the role of proper identification and assessment of premarketing signals in maintaining a favorable benefit-risk profile throughout a product's life cycle, the optimization of practices and systems in ambulatory and institutional settings for reporting and tracking drug-related adverse events, and the consequences for patient benefit-risk optimization of the analysis and publication of pharmacovigilance data and safety signals by a broad array of stakeholders including academic institutions, insurers, nonprofits, and web businesses, in addition to industry and regulators.
Learning Objective : Identify opportunities, limitations, and challenges of premarketing signal detection; Describe best practices for product-specific safety monitoring in ambulatory and institutional settings; Recognize various pharmacovigilance stakeholders, their motivations, and their individual advantages and disadvantages as providers of drug safety information.
