  • xEVMPD is the Extended Eudravigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary of the European Medicines Agency (EMA). It provides a standardized vocabulary for the Marketing Authorization of medicinal products.
  • Supporting xEVMPD submissions from the inception of the obligation, since July 1st, 2012.
  • Managing an average of 3500 xEVMPD petitions per year

 

Importance of 3rd Acknowledgement management in the context of data migration to PMS

⚠️ Managing EMA’s 3rd ACK is a crucial step in the context of migrating xEVMPD data into PMS, aimed at preventing and minimizing inconsistent data input into both the PMS database and eAF.

What is ISO IDMP?

  • The EMA is implementing the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards for the identification of medicinal products (IDMP).
  • The ISO IDMP standards specify the use of standardized definitions for identifying and describing medicinal products for human use.
  • The goals are to enhance clarity and efficiency in communications regarding medicinal product information in a robust and consistent manner.
  • ISO IDMP encompasses the entire lifecycle of medicinal products, including those in development, investigational stages, under evaluation, and already authorized. It offers a more comprehensive and detailed approach compared to xEVMPD. It is expected to be implemented starting from 2025 onwards.

What is a RIMS?

  • A Regulatory Information Management System (RIMS) facilitates the submission of both human and veterinary medicinal products to regulatory agencies for marketing authorization.
  • This invaluable software system aids in managing product dossiers and regulatory data, preparing submissions, and maintaining regulatory product information in the required formats.
  • Despite the widespread adoption of RIMS by pharmaceutical companies, many still rely on manual data entry. In the current landscape, it´s imperative for RIMS to be capable of directly transmitting data to the EMA.
  • Companies are now required to gather a larger volume of data at earlier stages, necessitating robust technological solutions to meet these demands.

 

What should an effective RIMS look like?

  • Enables to quickly and accurately identify product information requested by regulatory agencies
  • Collects product information under the eCTD specification
  • Takes into account the variation of products in the different agencies when creating a record
  • Correctly manages file changes and revisions, as well as product updates
  • Generates documentation subject to be submitted according to standards
  • Tracks all presentations and publications
  • Reduces times to issue submission to Regulatory agencies
  • Allows a clear monitoring from original submission during product life cycle
  • Adapts to company needs in terms of data volume and size to be managed
  • Complies with Regulatory requirements
