Overview 

Discovery is a central part of our jobs and our lives. Discovery of new pharmaceuticals of course but also discovery of new ways of working, new technologies, new regulations and new requirements. For many years the main focus of EDM was to create, assemble and deliver registration dossiers to regulatory agencies. Thanks to relentless efforts, we have now reached a point where this part is well understood and controlled. Our focus is shifting to other parts of the EDM universe, administrative documents management (eTMF), dossier lifecycle management, to new ways of creating content (XML, component-based authoring), new business models (service-based EDM, cloud computing). We are and will always be at the forefront discovering ever new ways of putting technology at the service of business. Join us and keep discovering.

Agenda  

Tutorials Wednesday, November 28, 2012

  • 9:00AM - 5:00PM

    Tutorial 1: eTMF - MIGRATING FROM PAPER TRIAL MASTER FILES TO ELECTRONIC

    This tutorial will provide a comprehensive overview of the issues involved in implementing an electronic trial master file. In addition to covering foundation principles such as “what is the trial master file”, this interactive session will provide guidance in a wide range of related aspects, including:

    • what do the regulations say about eTMFs
    • how should documents be filed in an eTMF
    • metadata and naming conventions
    • what formats are acceptable
    • how can the eTMF be reviewed by end-users, auditors and inspectors
    • how can an eTMF support global clinical trials
    • how is the eTMF populated and maintained
    • what are the validation requirements
    • does an eTMF need electronic signatures
  • 9:00AM - 5:00PM

    Tutorial 2: Data/Content Migration - Effective Migration Strategies: Understanding Bear-Traps & Honey Pots

    The implementation of new systems to enhance document management capabilities, establish efficiencies and better respond to regulatory needs, requires thorough planning and considerable strategic forethought if document migration is to be effective and successful. The need to maintain the integrity and (re-)usability of documents in the short-term as well as preserve them for long-term retention, means that the migration can be complex and challenging …and should never be underestimated.


    This interactive workshop is designed to help you understand and meet those challenges. It will

    • provide a comprehensive overview of the fundamental aspects of data migration;
    • explore considerations that need to be thought about before, during and after migration to enable best use of time and resources; and
    • evaluate options and approaches that can be used to ensure that migration ctivities progress as smoothly as possible and maximise business benefits.

    The focus will be on sharing practical experiences gained from actual migration projects to illustrate real-world scenarios and provide guidance on a wide range of subject areas including:

    • rationale for migration
    • planning considerations
    • designing effective strategies
    • migration tools and process
    • metadata transfer and mapping
    • testing and validation requirements
    • controls and compliance engineering
    • education, training and support
    • common mistakes/oversights
