| 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. |
The Emerging Trends & Technologies Working Group hosted the first Community Forum of 2023 on 18 January. Presenters Parag Shiralkar (Sumptuous Data Sciences) and Jeff Abolafia (Pinnacle 21) gave their presentations on Submitting Real-world Data. If you couldn't attend, catch up now by viewing the recording. Once you're all caught up, head over to the online Disqus forum where you can ask the presenters your questions and carry on the conversation!

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. For more information, click here, read the Welcome Pack or email workinggroups@phuse.global. |

The Nonclinical Topics Working Group is on the lookout for members to join the Conformance with the Tumor.xpt Specification project. The aim of this project is to create a non-exhaustive first set of technical conformance rules with the tumor.xpt specification. This project will provide the first set of validator rules to be implemented by tools already used by the industry for verification of SEND datasets, thus removing part of the current manual burden of reviewing this file.
Management of ODS Regulatory Referenced Deliverables: Do you have experience in creating the BDRG or SDSP? If so, then the Optimising the Use of Data Standards Working Group needs you! This recently formed project is on the lookout for new members to ensure regulatory referenced deliverables are kept up to date with regulatory guidance's and to carry out updates as needed. To apply for this project, click here to submit an application form.
