CASE STUDY

Demystify Impact of Combination products on PV and Risk Management

While our product portfolios continue to add combination products in the mix, leading to increasing complexity throughout the PV process there needs to be a deeper understanding of the device aspect including malfunctions and unique safety related requirements. The risk management process mow needs to incorporate the device related risk and more.

  • Discuss the evolving landscape of Combination product globally
  • Key challenges and areas of focus
  • Industry best practices to better integrate combination products in PV

CASE STUDY

Applying Who-UMC Causality Criteria to Vaccines: A COVID-19 Vaccine Experience

During the pandemic, there was a requirement to apply WHO-UMC causality criteria on a case level for safety evaluations. This criterion has limitations when used for vaccines due to the lack of possibility of rechallenge/dechallenge and withdrawal for vaccines, leaving some room for individual interpretation when applying the criteria. To overcome this challenge, a supporting algorithm was developed to ensure consistent causality assessment when volumes are high, and many people are reviewing cases.

  • WHO-UMC causality criteria have limitations when applied to vaccines
  • Rechallenge/dechallenge or withdrawal is not possible
  • Leaves room for individual interpretation of how to apply the criteria
  • To overcome challenges, a supporting algorithm was developed to ensure consistency
