CASE STUDY
Transparency in Medical Affairs Communications and Disclosures
This presentation will focus on the availability and access to information, along with the expectations of HCPs, patients, and regulators with regard to access to datasets and the ethical and business considerations driving medical affairs communication strategies.
- 01The role of medical affairs in external scientific communications
- 02Expectations of HCPs
- 03Expectations of regulators
- 04Business considerations
Traditionally, Regulatory Affairs relied on unstructured data that are maintained in documents. This is slowly but steadily changing as regulators demand the submission of structured data in addition to documents (e.g., XEVMPD and IDMP requirements). Being able to manage structured substance and product data will, in the future, be a prerequisite to further speed up the regulatory submission process and be a distinguishing factor in increasing development to market speed. Ontologies are a scalable approach to manage large quantities of regulatory data, break up data siloes and connect data even beyond regulatory requirements. We will dive into the world of ontologies to showcase how Regulatory Affairs can profit from this technological innovation.
CASE STUDY
Integrated Evidence Generation
In the fast-changing pharmaceutical industry, enhancing the operational efficiency of Medical Affairs is crucial. The Integrated Evidence Plan is a key initiative aimed at improving how we gather, analyse, and share evidence to meet both internal and external needs. By fostering collaboration among internal stakeholders and aligning strategies with the scientific community, we seek to create a framework that maximises the relevance of our medical evidence. This project promotes leadership and the impact of MA.

- 02Strategic Alignment: Ensuring that evidence efforts are aligned with organisational goals

- 04Leadership Development: Fostering a culture of innovation and accountability
- 05Enhanced Impact: Maximising the overall impact of Medical Affairs in the organisation

CASE STUDY
Effective Opinion Leader Engagement — Enhancing Interpersonal Communication
One of the key roles of Medical Affairs in Pharma is to communicate with KOLs / DOLs. Are we good at that? Can we improve? What does Jacek Lange, Psychotherapist, suggest to Jacek Lange, Nephrologist and Medical Affairs Director?
Global collaboration between companies across the supply chain provides tremendous value to products brought to market, patient safety and understanding of evolving requirements. It allows for an increase in product quality, supports smooth registration processes and thus secures the time it takes to introduce the product to the market. A similar situation may also occur with cooperation with regulatory bodies; the exchange of knowledge and experience can only have a positive impact on product safety. As a person who has been supporting cooperation in the area of regulatory affairs for many years, I would like to show, based on examples, how many benefits it can bring.
- 01Emotional stress in medicine — how it involves us as Medical Affairs
- 02Diagnosing the needs and goals of our counterparty and combining them with ours
- 03Accepting different points of view
- 04How can we communicate properly despite different opinions and goals?
