CASE STUDY

Paperless PIL Packs - Piloting Across Borders

On 14 Oct 2020, NHAs of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania held a common meeting, where industry associations from all concerned countries applied for presenting their proposals to increase the availability of medicines. One of the proposals was to run a pilot project to skip paper-PIL from packs of hospital products. A pilot has been running since 1 Jan 2022, and while looking at various milestones, we take a look also at future perspectives.

The presentation will dive into a roadmap of the ongoing pilot project in the Baltic countries, focusing on:

  • Background and legal basis
  • Purpose and scope
  • Future perspectives

CASE STUDY

Regulatory Strategies for Rapid Development and Commercialisation of COVID mAb Therapies

The speaker will discuss how principles for development of all products for unmet medical need, encapsulated in EFPIA publications and the EMA PRIME Quality toolbox were used to expedite development of mAb therapies, and the challenges of applying these strategies to therapies for the treatment of COVID-19. Use of interim specifications with commitments to update at later stage, use of in vitro potency assays, flexibility on importation testing, use of investigational material for “early commercial” product supply, method qualification based on benefit-risk, staggered submission of data e.g., process validation provided at later stages in the review and use of stability data from non-clonal cell line materials to justify shelf life of monoclonal commercial product will also be presented.

  • Present strategies to accelerate development and commercialization of mAb therapies under a pandemic setting.
  • Highlight the importance to build on COVID-19 learnings with regards to rapid access of products for unmet medical need to patients.

CASE STUDY

Challenges and Opportunities in the Next Years for Regulatory Affairs, the Affiliate Perspective

It is well known that the regulatory framework will suffer in EU a profound change in the coming years, derived from the European Commission (EC) legal proposals for the revision of the general pharmaceutical legislation, orphan and paediatric regulations, as well as the implementation of the Regulation on health technology assessment, and In Vitro Devices and Medical Devices regulations. These regulatory changes will surely require affiliates engagement and support since most of the changes will require national set up, and most probably, many EU authorities will develop guidances.

  • Review of the new regulatory trends and local impact
  • Global and local interactions: How we do shape the national eco-systems?
  • How to ensure compliance and being efficient in an increasingly complex regulatory environment?
