The importance of accessible patient-centric product information in helping patients understand and adhere to their treatment is becoming even greater. The overarching role of the patient in labeling, covering aspects such as health literacy, usability requirements, and patient consultations have been discussed increasingly. In this session, we will discuss the initiatives for patient-centric product information such as the PMDA’s perspective, usability tests and the open publishing concept linking patient lay summaries with labels. There will also be discussions on strategies for involving patient insights into label development.
