Digitalize and Automate Literature Screening while increasing efficiency and achieving compliance
According to GVP Module VI, every Marketing Authorization Holder (MAH) should have a dedicated Literature Monitoring program as part of safety monitoring of medicinal products to regularly search for articles in the literature databases and report adverse events. Non-compliance to this requirement may result in challenges like missing relevant ICSRs, inadequate aggregate reporting, missing safety signals and a major audit finding leading to withdrawal of the drug from the market.
Common Challenges faced by MAH Representatives
- Literature searches are labor intensive and consume a lot of time to go through large volumes of scientific articles
- Lack of connected search capabilities from different biomedical literature databases
- Performing literature screening is tedious with the rapid volume increase in of scientific literature
- Manual processes that are error prone leading to quality and compliance issues
- Poor visibility on ongoing partner and vendor engagements with no provision to track SLA timelines and compliance adherence
- Lack insights on non-compliance issues that could result as findings during audits and inspections
