Frequently Asked Questions About Risk Management Strategies
- Phase I: Focus on participant safety with close monitoring, dose escalation protocols, and detailed adverse event reporting.
- Phase II: Refine safety measures while assessing efficacy, using targeted monitoring for specific risks identified in Phase I.
- Phase III: Emphasise real-time data monitoring, strong risk evaluation mitigation strategies (REMS), and comprehensive adverse event management.
- Phase IV (Post-market): Focus on long-term safety monitoring, pharmacovigilance, and real-world data collection to identify emerging risks.
To optimize safety measures, organizations should take the following actions:
- Conduct a thorough risk assessment to identify potential safety issues and create mitigation plans.
- Develop protocols that prioritize participant safety with clear inclusion/exclusion criteria and emergency procedures.
- Use electronic data capture (EDC) systems for real-time monitoring of participant data.
- Train all team members on safety protocols and ensure open communication channels.
- Collaborate with regulatory authorities to ensure compliance and enhance safety measures.
- Educate participants about risks and what to do in case of adverse events.
Organizations must follow global and local regulatory guidelines for safety and risk management. Key frameworks include
- ICH E6 (R2) Good Clinical Practice: Ethical and scientific standards for clinical trials.
- ICH E2E Pharmacovigilance: Guidance on managing risks during drug development and post-approval.
- FDA REMS: Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies for certain drugs in the US.
- ISO 14155: Safety and performance standards for medical device trials.
Adherence to these guidelines ensures compliance, participant safety, and successful trial outcomes.
