| Working Groups Hot Topics |
PHUSE collaborations are organised into a number of specialist Working Groups, each with a broad topic area. The Working Groups have specific projects designed to achieve a set of particular objectives. This page will highlight the latest news and information from our projects. Participation is open to anyone who wants to contribute and if you would like to get involved, please email workinggroups@phuse.global. |

| Calling For Feedback |
|---|
The Good Transparency Practices project within the Data Transparency Working Group, is now calling for feedback! This White Paper aims to define a 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. Please send in your comments to workinggroups@phuse.global by 3 May. |
| 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.

Projects Calling for Participants
Our Nonclinical Topics Working Group is currently looking for a Co-Lead. If this is a role you are interested in supporting, click this link to find out more and submit your application.
The Industry SEND Progress Survey project in the Nonclinical Topics group is seeking new team members and/or co-lead to develop a new direction and future scope. Click here for more information.
The Harmonization of SEND Implementation to Enable Historical Control Data Analysis are collaborating with BioCelerate to find solutions to overcome cross-study analysis challenges highlighted in the last CSS meeting. One of the issues identified was determining which studies used a specific vehicle component. To help find a solution results in the greatest value for the least pain for everyone, the team has prepared datasets following 3 different possible approaches and are asking for your evaluation of them. Between now and January 15, 2021, please allocate about 5 to 10 hours to evaluate these approaches and inform us of the results by completing this survey. This short timeline for evaluation is necessary to enable CDISC to consider the outcome of this work as they finalise the scope for the next version of SEND. Instructions and the survey are available here.Initiate and lead a new project under the PHUSE Working Groups umbrella. The new project must |
address problems of significant relevance to computational science related to drug, |
biological and device development and must meet all of the guidelines for projects within the collaboration, including the following mandatory requirements:

Have you attended a PHUSE Webinar Wednesday?
They run throughout the year around the last Wednesday of every month and include presentations of hot topics in the industry and PHUSE.Click here to register and view previous presentations. Our PHUSE events are different in both nature and set-up. PHUSE events started back in 2004 with the inaugural PHUSE conference in Heidelberg. Since then PHUSE has been organising events all over the globe. With that, we strive to meet the needs of our global membership to share, advance and connect. All our events are aimed at different audiences. Click the banner above to see upcoming events
