Best Practices for AI-Assisted Signal Detection Under GVP Module IX

Each day, millions of patients rely on medicines that are already on the market. However, a medicine’s safety profile doesn’t cease once it reaches the market. Rare adverse events, long-term effects, and unexpected drug interactions may only emerge after widespread use, making continuous safety monitoring essential. The challenge of the pharmacovigilance market isn’t the lack of data. It’s the...

What is a drug safety database – Pharmacovigilance/Safety Database Systems explained

Medicines can provide significant therapeutic benefits, but their use may also be associated with unintended medical events. Detecting, documenting, and evaluating these events is therefore a continuous responsibility. At the heart of this process is the drug safety database. It’s a structured repository for collecting, managing, assessing, and reporting adverse events and adverse drug...

Human-in-the-Loop AI: Why Full Automation Isn’t Always the Right Answer in PV

As the landscape of drug safety changes, so does the pharmacovigilance market. While PV has historically been conservative due to heavy regulation, the sheer volume of safety data is driving a shift toward AI. It brings the question: do we need AI automation to the extent we think we do? Is the adoption of AI actually going to replace scientific judgment with algorithmic probability? Or will AI...

EU Pharmacovigilance Regulation 2025/1466: Key Reforms for MAHs
