Data Analysis and Interpretation
Signal Intelligence Services-PV provides standardized analysis of drug safety data without the need to implement a software product solution. The analysis can be based on a company’s internal and/or external data. The use of external data provides a comparison to other products in the same therapeutic area, as recommended by “Good Pharmacovigilance Practices.” Typical sources of external data are FDA AERS and WHO. Among the analysis incorporated into this service are:
|
 |
Clinical and laboratory manifestations and course of the event |
 |
Demographic characteristics of patients (e.g., age, gender, race) |
 |
Exposure duration |
 |
Time from initiation of product exposure to the adverse event |
 |
Doses, including labeled doses, greater than labeled doses, and overdoses |
 |
Use of concomitant medications |
 |
Presence of co-morbid conditions, particularly those known to cause the adverse event, such as underlying hepatic or renal impairment |
 |
Changes in event reporting rate over calendar time or product life cycle |
