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 Quality Tolerance Limits project within the Risk Based Quality Management Working Group have published a new deliverable. The White Paper is on the topic of Assessing the Use of Quality Tolerance Limits in the Pharmaceutical Industry. This White Paper aims to provide the reader with valuable insights into the depth and breadth of the use of QTLs and addressing how QTLs are used in a wider scope of implementing RBQM. |
Calling for Feedback |

| The Treatment Emergent Definitions Recommendations project within Safety Analytics Working Group has produced a White Paper 'Recommended Definition of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events in Clinical Trials'.This document defines treatment-emergent events in Phase 1 to 4 clinical trials and integrated summary documents across therapeutic areas. The recommendations described herein were based on the authors’ collective experiences and a survey conducted by the PHUSE Treatment-Emergent Definition Recommendations project team [2] to solicit input from respondents on various TEAE scenarios for a simple clinical study design. Please provide your comments by emailing workinggroups@phuse.global. Closing date for comments: 7 June |
Volunteer Opportunities | |

TheEstimands for RWD/RWE a new project within Real World Evidence Working Group is now calling for volunteers. The focus of this project is on best practices of RWD estimands, not on their implementation using data standards. The team formed would have representation from the PHUSE Implementation of Estimands (ICH E9 (R1)) using Data Standards project team, which has a white paper nearing publication as of 2024Q1, and the Estimands Implementation Working Group (EIWG) sub team on HTA and RWE, both with estimands expertise, along with representation from teams under the RWE Working Group. If you would like to volunteer or learn more about this project, email workinggroups@phuse.global. Closing date: 7 June 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.

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 |
