The Nonclinical Topics Working Group is excited to announce a multi-day virtual event coming 10–12 February 2026 at 09:00–11:30 (EST) / 14:00–16:30 (GMT) / 15:00–17:30 (CET)

We have an exciting agenda of expert presentations, interactive breakout sessions and project updates, spread across three days. The event will focus on four core themes – new approach methodologies (NAMs), nonclinical predictive modelling, machine learning and PHUSE project contributions and developments – and enable attendees to explore each topic in depth with leaders from industry, regulatory agencies and the wider PHUSE Community.

Full agenda and registration details coming soon!

We’re looking forward to welcoming you back as the Data Transparency Working Group returns with another multi-day virtual event, taking place 15–17 September 2026.

Stay tuned for more details and registration information coming soon!

We’re pleased to announce that the Real World Evidence Working Group will be holding its second multi-day virtual event from 30 September–1 October 2026.

Stay tuned for more details and registration information coming soon!

The Anonymization of Imaging Data project within the Data Transparency Working Group have published a new white paper: Imaging Data Anonymization Guideline which is now open for public review.

The purpose of this guideline is to define the minimum anonymization standards for DICOM imaging data shared externally via a secure, governed research environment (SGRE). This document aims to ensure that all shared clinical trial imaging data complies with privacy regulations and ethical standards, thereby protecting the identities of clinical trial participants. It is intended for people involved in data processing, anonymization, and external collaborations, as well as for external researchers who will access these anonymized data.

The team welcome feedback on the paper from 6 January – 3 February. Please send responses to workinggroups@phuse.global

The QC Workflow Optimisation project within the Emerging Trends & Innovation Working Group have published a survey exploring the current state of Quality Control across the industry.

This survey aims to capture an industry-wide view of current Quality Control practices, how they may need to evolve, and the potential role of emerging technologies such as AI. Your input will help shape future PHUSE discussions, highlight areas for improvement or standardisation, and guide next steps for the QC Workflow Optimisation project.

The survey will remain open from 3 December – 13 January. All responses will be collected anonymously.

The Integration of Omics Data into Clinical Drug Development project within the Emerging Trends & InnovationWorking Group has published a new White Paper titled “Capturing Computational Workflows in Clinical Trials with BioCompute”

This white paper explores how the BioCompute framework can transform the way computational workflows are captured and communicated in clinical trials. As bioinformatics analyses become increasingly complex, consistent and transparent documentation is essential for reproducibility and regulatory confidence. Through practical case studies, the paper demonstrates how BioCompute enables structured, auditable workflows across diverse data types, including omics and imaging, while supporting more efficient collaboration and regulatory submissions.

The RWD Guideline for Programming and Analysis Processes Project within the Real World Evidence Working Group has published a new White Paper. This paper offers practical guidance for statistical programmers on applying real‑world data (RWD) to produce regulatory‑grade real‑world evidence (RWE), covering study design, data fitness, governance, ethics, vendor engagement, bias management, and regulatory submission considerations.

The Quality and Reusability of Real World Data Project within the Real World Evidence Working Group has produced a White Paper ‘Real-World Data Reliability and Integrity: Ensuring Real-World Data is Fit for Use for Regulatory Submissions’. This White Paper focuses on the usability of real-world data sources for regulatory submission purposes. To assess the fit for use of this data, we need to assess the relevance and the reliability of the data.
