R Environment System Qualification – Project Members
The project is looking to develop scripts to qualify an R environment, including the base installation and additional R framework exists for the base installation tests. This project will collaborate with the RValidationHub and the RConsortium to gather requirements for R environments and best practices for qualifying R systems.
Good Transparency Practices – Project Co-Lead and Members
The project aims to definea set of best practices for data transparency and create a Good Transparency Practices guidance. The best practices will |
aim to ensure anonymised data is compliant with the legal requirements |
as defined by |
Regulators, as well as |
preserves as much data utility as possible. |
Educate the General Population on Data Privacy and Data Sharing – Project Members
This project is looking to produce engaging content on data privacy and data sharing that can be understood and used by the general population covering topics such as what is being done to share clinical trial data and information, where data goes and how it is used, what data privacy is, why it is needed, why it is important and the differences between mandatory vs. voluntary data sharing.
This project identifies current state of digital biomarkers in clinical sector and its future impact. It will cover the topics: Classification of existing digital biomarkers, Clinical Therapeutic areas where digital biomarkers usage is progressing, limitations, etc., Stakeholders impacted are Pharma, CROs, tech companies, regulators and SDOs.

| New Deliverables |
|---|
|
The Best Data Practices for Rare Disease Patient Foundations and Researchers within the Real World Evidence Working Group, has published a new deliverable in the form of a poster. The poster provides an overview of Ensuring Registry Data Relevance and Reliability for Regulatory Use. The PHUSE data standards community, which is comprised of leaders and experts responsible for the governance and implementation of data standards across the biopharmaceutical industry, have authored and new White Paper. The Data Standards White Paper highlights current challenges in data standardisation across the biopharma industry and identify opportunities where we can work together to tackle them. The SDTM ADaM Implementation FAQ within Optimizing the Use of Data Standards Working Group have published a new FAQ! The question they have answered is 'Naming Convention for Split RS Domain', you can view this question and the teams response viaValidation/Conformance Rules page. You can see all the FAQ this project has answered so far via here. Do you have a SDTM ADaM question? You can send your questions to the team by emailing workinggroups@phuse.global. |

The Data Visualisation & Open Source Technology Working Group has a new project, Demonstrating Real-World Impact of Modernization of Statistical Analytics (MSA) Framework.This project aims to extend the MSA framework by creating a reference architecture that takes into account real-world scenarios and design solutions to remediate them, ultimately providing a practical guide to building an end-to-end validated environment for regulated work. Companies seeking to build an open-source programming environment for regulatory reporting can leverage the MSA framework for guidance. However, since the framework is designed to be both flexible and extensible, implementing it may prove challenging for companies, resulting in situations where risks are not sufficiently mitigated. While the original MSA paper provided conceptual guidance, the PHUSE handover of the project will seek to provide an overview of practical implementations of the framework being applied. This project is calling for volunteers, to join contact workinggroups@phuse.global by 26 April. The Safety Analytics Working Group is looking for a new Working Group Lead to join their team. This Working Group is a cross-disciplinary collaboration working to improve the content and implementation of clinical trial safety analyses for medical research, leading to better data interpretations and increased efficiency in the clinical drug development and review processes. Click here to see a list of current projects within this Working Group. Learn more about the roles and the responsibilities of a Working Group Lead and apply by emailing workinggroups@phuse.global. Closing date 26 April. Multiple projects within Working Groups are open to join. PHUSE welcomes new members who can apply their knowledge to bring fresh ideas and contribute to the ongoing work of PHUSE projects.
