Data Transparency Autumn Event 2024 

Active since 2014, PHUSE’s Data Transparency Working Group has provided subject matter expertise for the review of draft deliverables and guidance documents from regulatory bodies (such as the EMA and Health Canada), as well as other industry organisations (such as TransCelerate) and academia. Since their inception in 2020, the free-to-attend Data Transparency Events have gone from strength to strength. These virtual events have created an unrestricted space where questions can be asked and challenges addressed. Individuals passionate about the area can come together to share vital knowledge, develop new ideas and spark innovation through presentations, panel discussions and Q&A sessions alongside experts in the data-sharing field.

The PHUSE Data Transparency Autumn Event will take place from 17–19 September 2024. Data Transparency Events offer you the chance to gain knowledge and experience from a wide data transparency community, allowing you to come together with experts from a variety of companies and backgrounds. During this virtual event, presentations will be delivered across the three days in bitesize chunks from 15:00-17:30 (GMT). There will also be a panel discussion and Q&A session focused on the day's themes. 

The full event agenda can be found here.

Calling for Feedback 

The AE Groupings in Safety (AEGiS) project within the Safety Analytics Working Group has produced a White Paper, 'Utilization of Adverse Event Groupings in Clinical Trial Safety AssessmentThis document outlines why using standard AE groupings for queries is key to understanding a drug's safety profile, discusses some assumptions underlying use of standard queries for estimation and outlines the benefits of standard queries when available. When standard queries are not available but detailed analysis of a specific medical condition is needed, this document recommends a process to develop and maintain a custom query that can be replicated by regulatory authorities.

Please provide your comments by emailing workinggroups@phuse.global. Closing date for comments: 6 September.
