2. PHARMACOVIGILANCE
• Pharmacovigilance (PV) is defined as the science and activities
relating to the detection, assessment, understanding and prevention
of adverse effects or any other drug-related problem.
• Pharmacovigilance (PV) Drug Safety
• Pharmakon -drug +Vigilare -to keep watch =PHARMACOVIGILANCE
3. Overview
• The tragedy of thalidomides in 1960s compelled health agencies
and regulators worldwide to deliberate on drug safety issues.
• Thousands of babies were born without limbs because of exposure
to thalidomide consumed by the pregnant mothers for morning
sickness.
4. • WHO initiated the project with cooperation of ten countries ,
which have their own pharmacovigilance systems
• These countries had well established national drug monitoring
centers receiving ADR reports from healthcare professionals.
• Received reports were analyzed locally and then forwarded to the
WHO database, which since 1978 has been maintained by the
WHO Collaborating Centers for International Drug Monitoring ,
located in Uppsala, Sweden.
• Thus the science of pharmacovigilance or drug safety emerged.
Gradually more countries joined the WHO program for
International Drug Monitoring (PIDM).
5. AIM OF PHARMACOVIGILANCE
• PATIENT CARE
To improve patient care & safety in relation to medicines & all
medical & para-medical interventions
• PUBLIC HEALTH
To improve public health & safety in relation to the use of
medicines
• RISK BENEFIT & ASSESSMENT
To contribute to the assessment of benefit, harm, effectiveness
and risk of medicines
6. • COMMUNICATION
To promote understanding, clinical training & effective
communication to health professionals & the public
• To promote rational and safe use of medicines
7. RESPONSIBILITIES
• Timely collection of data ,recording and notification
• Appropriate assessments (data completeness , seriousness)
• Expedited and periodic reporting
• Creates appropriate structures for communication
8. NEED OF PHARMACOVIGILANCE
HUMANITARIAN CONCERN
• Animal toxicology is often not a good predictor for
human effects .
• Evidence of safety from clinical trials is insufficient due to
some limitations
• LIMITATIONS (phase 1-3): limited size , narrow population
(age &sex specific), narrow indications (only specific disease),
short duration
9. 2. SAFE USE OF MEDICINES
it has been suggested that ADRs may cause 5700 deaths per
year in UK
3.ADRs MAY CAUSE SUDDEN DEATH
4.PROMOTING RATIONAL USE OF MEDICINES
5.ENSURING PUBLIC CONFIDENCE
6.ETHICAL CONCERN
not reporting serious reaction is unethical
10. The Minimum Requirements for a functional
Pharmacovigilance System
• A National Pharmacovigilance Centre with designated staff (at
least one full time), stable basic funding, clear mandates, well
defined structures and roles and collaborating with the WHO
Programme for International Drug Monitoring
• The existence of a National spontaneous reporting system with
a national individual case safety report (ICSR) form i.e. ADR
reporting form
11. • A national database or system for collating and managing
ADR reports
• A national ADR or pharmacovigilance advisory committee
able to provide technical assistance on causality assessment,
risk assessment, risk management case investigation and
where necessary crisis management including crisis
communication
• Clear communication strategy for routine communication and
crises communication
12. What informations should be reported
• On ADRs occurring
– in the course of the use of a drug
– from drug overdose whether accidental or intentional
– from drug abuse / misuse / non-approved use
– from drug withdrawal
– in the infant of a nursing mother
– possibly as a result of exposure of the mother or the fetus
during pregnancy
13. • ANY INFORMATION
on an ADR or lack of efficacy connected with the use of a
medical device/ drug product
• even if no ADR has been observed,
– From drug overdose whether accidental or intentional
– From drug abuse / misuse / non-approved use
– From drug administration during pregnancy
14. GOVERNING BODIES
• The pharmaceutical industry
• Regulatory authorities
• WHO collaborating centre for international drug monitoring
• CIOMS(Council for International Organization of Medical
Sciences )
15. ORGANISATIONS INVOLVED IN
PHARMACOVIGILANCE
• FDA: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or USFDA) is
an agency of the United States Department of Health and
Human Services, one of the United States federal executive
departments
• responsible for protecting and promoting public health
through the regulation and supervision of food safety, tobacco
products, dietary supplements, prescription and over-
thecounter pharmaceutical drugs (medications), vaccines,
biopharmaceuticals, blood transfusions, medical devices,
electromagnetic radiation emitting devices (ERED), veterinary
products, and cosmetics.
16. • EMEA: The European Medicines Agency is a decentralised
body of the European Union located in London
• MHLW: Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare,Japan
• CDSCO: The government of India with the assistance of
world bank has initiated the National pharmacovigilance
programme.
The central drugs standard control organization (CDSCO) is
coordinating the country wide pharmacovigilance programme
under the aegis of Ministry of health and family welfare,
DGHS New delhi
17. TERMINOLOGIES OF PHARMACOVIGILANCE
1.ADVERSE EVENT
Any untoward medical occurrence that may present during
treatment with a pharmaceutical product but which does not
necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.
2.ADVERSE DRUG REACTION (ADR)
A response which is noxious and unintended, and which occurs at
doses normally used in humans for the prophylaxis, diagnosis, or
therapy of disease, or for the modification of physiological
function. (WHO, 1972).
18. 3.ALLOPATHY
Non-traditional, western scientific therapy, usually using
synthesised ingredients, but may also contain a purified active
ingredient extracted from a plant or other natural source, usually
in opposition to the disease.
4.ATTRIBUTABLE RISK
Difference between the risk in an
exposed population (absolute risk) and
the risk in an unexposed population (reference risk).
• Attributable risk is the result of an absolute comparison between
outcome frequency measurements, such as incidence.
19. 5.BIOLOGICAL PRODUCTS
Medical products prepared from biological material of human,
animal or microbiologic origin (such as blood products, vaccines,
insulin).
6.CASUAL RELATIONSHIP
A relationship between one phenomenon or event (A) and another
(B) in which A precedes and causes B. In pharmacovigilance; a
medicine causing an adverse reaction.
20. 7.CASUALITY ASSESSMENT
The evaluation of the likelihood that a
medicine was the causative agent of an
observed adverse reaction. Causality assessment is usually made
according established algorithms.
8.CAVEAT DOCUMENT
The formal advisory warning accompanying data release from the
WHO Global ICSR Database: it specifies the conditions and
reservations applying to interpretations and use of the data.
21. 9.CEM-FLOW
Software developed by UMC for collection and analysis of
data in Cohort Event Monitoring.
10.CLINICAL TRIAL
A systematic study on pharmaceutical products in human
subjects (including patients and other volunteers) in order to
discover or verify the effects of and/or identify any adverse
reaction to investigational products, and/or to study the
absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) of
the products with the objective of ascertaining their efficacy
and safety
22. 11.COHORT EVENT MONITORING
Cohort Event Monitoring (CEM) is a prospective, observational
study of events that occur during the use of medicines, for
intensified follow-up of selected medicinal products phase.
Patients are monitored from the time they begin treatment, and
for a defined period of time.
12.COMPLIANCE
Faithful adherence by the patient to the prescriber’s instructions.
23. 13.CONTROL GROUP
The comparison group in drug-trials not being given the
studied drug.
14.CO START
Coding Symbols for a Thesaurus of Adverse Reaction Terms
developed by USFDA . But recently COSTART was replaced
by MedDRA.
15.CRITICAL TERMS
Some of the terms in WHO-ART are marked as ‘Critical
Terms’. These terms either refer to or might be indicative of
serious disease states, and warrant special attention, because of
their possible association with the risk of serious illness which
may lead to more decisive action than reports on other terms.
24. 16.DATA MINING
• extract information from a data and transform it into an
understandable structure for further use
• it is practical machine learning tools &techniques with java
• the term data mining appeared around 1990.
• currently data mining and knowledge discovery are used
interchangeably
• A related term with essentially the same meaning is
‘pattern discovery’.
25. • In pharmacovigilance, the commonest application of data mining
is so called disproportionality analysis, for example using the
Information component (IC).
• Six tasks
a) anomaly detection –identification of unusual data &data errors
that require further investigations.
b) association rule learning-searching relationship between
variables
c) clustering-discovering groups that are in some way similar
d) classification-to apply to new data
e) regression-models the data with least error
f) summarization-compact representation of data
26. • Medical data mining-HITECH act(Health Information
Technology for Economic and Clinical Health act)
-by this data mining opportunities are maximized
a) Free open source data mining soft ware & applications

27. 17.DE - CHALLENGE
The withdrawal of a drug from a patient; the point at which the
continuity, reduction or disappearance of adverse effects may be
observed.
18.DISPROPORTIONALITY ANALYSIS
Screening of ICSR databases for reporting rates which are
higher than expected. For drugADR pairs, common measures of
disproportionality are the Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR),
the Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR), The Information Component
(IC), and the Empirical Bayes Geometrical Mean (EBGM).
There are also disproportionality measures for drug-drug-ADR
triplets, such as Omega (Ω).
28. 19.INFORMATION COMPONENT
The Information component (IC) measures the disproportionality
in the reporting of a drug- ADR pair in an ICSR database,
relative to the reporting expected based on the overall reporting
of the drug and the ADR. Positive IC values indicate higher
reporting than expected. The IC has also been implemented on
electronic health records, to detect interesting temporal
relationships between drug prescriptions and medical events.
20.INCIDENCE
Number of new cases of an outcome which develop over a
defined time period in a defined population at risk
29. 21.INDIVIDUAL CASE SAFETY REPORT (ICSR)
A report that contains ‘information describing a suspected
adverse drug reaction related to the administration of one or
more medicinal products to an individual patient’.
30. 22.MedDRA
MedDRA is the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities.
WHO-ART, the WHO Adverse Reactions Terminology, is now
mapped to MedDRA
• International medical terminology dictionary -Originally
available in English &Japanese
• MedDRA is organized as System Organ Class(SOC).which is
divided into
a)High level group terms(HLGT)
b)High level terms(HLT)
c)Preferred terms(PT)
d)lower level terms(LLT)
31. • MedDRA is managed by MSSO(Maintenance and Support
Services Organization)
• MSSO releases new version in twice a year (march&
September)
• March release is the main ,contains changes at the HLT level
&above
• September release contains changes at the PT level
• Latest version(16.1) was updated on sept 2013
32. 23.MEMBER COUNTRIES
Countries which comply with the criteria for, and have joined
the WHO Programme for International Drug Monitoring.
24.NATIONAL PHARMACOVIGILANCE CENTRES
Organisations recognised by
governments to represent their
country in the WHO Programme
(usually the drug regulatory agency). A single, governmentally
recognized centre (or integrated system) within a country with
the clinical and scientific expertise to collect, collate, analyse
and give advice on all information related to drug safety.
33. 25.OMEGA(Ω)
A measure of disproportionate reporting for drug-drug-ADR
triplets in ICSR databases, designed to highlight potential
signals of drug- drug interactions. Just like the more
established disproportionality measures for drug-ADR pairs, Ω
is based on a contrast between the observed and expected
number of reports. A positive Ω indicates higher reporting than
expected
26.PANI-FLOW
Software developed by UMC for collection and analysis of
data in relation to vaccinations in a pandemic situation.
34. 27.PERIODIC SAFETY UPDATE REPORT
A systematic review of the global safety data which became
available to the manufacturer of a marketed drug during a
specific time period. Produced in an internationally agreed
format.
28.PHARMACOEPIDEMIOLOGY
Study of the use and effects of drugs in large populations.
29.PHARMACOENVIRONMENTOLOGY
form of pharmacovigilance which deals specifically with those
pharmacological agents that have impact on the environment
via elimination through living organisms subsequent to
pharmacotherapy.
35. 30.PREDISPOSING FACTORS
Any aspect of the patient’s history (other than the drug) which
might explain reported adverse events (genetic factors, diet,
alcohol consumption, disease history, polypharmacy or use of
herbal medicines, for example).
36. 31.PRESCRIPTION EVENT MONITORING(PEM)
System created to monitor adverse drug events in a population.
Prescribers are requested to report all events, regardless of
whether they are suspected adverse events, for identified
patients receiving a specified drug. Also more accurately named
Cohort Event Monitoring.
32.PREVALENCE
Number of existing cases of an outcome in a defined population
at a given point in time.
37. 33.RECORD LINKAGE
Method of assembling information contained in two or more
records, e.g. In different sets of medical charts, and in vital
records such as birth and death certificates. This makes it
possible to relate significant health events that are remote from
one another in time and place.
34.REFERENCE RISK
Risk in a population of unexposed persons; also called baseline
risk. Reference risk can be measured over time (incidence) or
at a given time (prevalence). The unexposed population refers
to a reference population, as closely comparable to the exposed
population as possible, apart from the exposure.
38. 35.RELATIVE RISK
Ratio of the risk in an exposed population (absolute risk) and
the risk in an unexposed population (reference risk). Relative
risk is the result of a relative comparison between outcome
frequency measurements, e.g. incidences.
39. 36.SIGNAL
• reported information on a possible causal relationship which is
being unknown or incompletely documented previously.
• usually more than 1 report is required to generate a signal
• depending upon the seriousness of the event and the quality of
the information. The publication of a signal usually implies the
need for some kind of review or action.
• before signals are published they are first clinically assessed
by PV experts at UMC(Uppsala monitoring centre ,Sweden)
40. • there are 3types of signals
1.confirmed signals-causal relationship between the drug and
adverse event
2.refuted(false) signals-no causal relationship
3.unconfirmed signals-require further investigation
37.SPONTANEOUS REPORTING
System whereby case reports of adverse drug events are
voluntarily submitted from health professionals and
pharmaceutical manufacturers to the national regulatory
authority.
