Signal Management Plan — GLPI-103

🧪
Mock / simulation document

This is a mock / simulation document, made for a portfolio and for learning. The drug (GLPI-103), the sponsor, the people, and the data are all fictional. It is not a real regulatory submission and has no clinical, legal, or regulatory standing. What is real is the shape of the thing — the document structure, the standards it follows, and the analysis methods; the content inside is illustrative.

📄
About this document — a plain-language guide

What it is. The signal-management plan — how potential new safety signals are detected, prioritized, evaluated, and acted on.

Why it exists. Pharmacovigilance is not just reporting known risks; it is systematically watching for unknown ones. This plan defines the process (data sources, thresholds, roles, timelines) for turning a possible signal into a confirmed risk and a label change if warranted.

How it is produced here. It is a pharmacovigilance ('drug safety watch') document: it gathers and interprets the simulated safety data on the fixed schedule regulators expect once a drug enters development or the market.

1. Scope and Roles

Covers all sources of safety data (clinical trials, spontaneous reports, literature, registries, regulatory databases). The Safety Management Team (qualified PV physician + epidemiologist + biostatistician) owns the process; the EU-QPPV has oversight (GVP IX).

2. Data Sources for Signal Detection

  • Clinical-trial SAE/AESI data and aggregate analyses (DSUR; CSR-301).
  • Post-authorization: spontaneous reports (company safety database), regulatory databases (FAERS, EudraVigilance, KAERS), literature, and solicited programs.

3. Signal Detection Methods

  • Qualitative: medical review of individual case safety reports (ICSRs), case-series review, and review of designated medical events.
  • Quantitative (post-launch): disproportionality analysis (PRR, ROR, EBGM/empirical Bayes) on the spontaneous database with predefined thresholds; time-to-onset and observed-vs-expected analyses for AESIs.
  • Targeted monitoring of the predefined safety concerns (RMP) and adverse events of special interest.

4. Adverse Events of Special Interest (targeted)

Gastrointestinal events; acute pancreatitis; thyroid C-cell neoplasia/MTC; hypoglycaemia (with secretagogues/insulin); cardiovascular/heart-rate effects (APJ mechanism); hepatic events (eDISH/Hy's-law monitoring); hypersensitivity/immunogenicity.

5. Signal Validation, Prioritisation, and Assessment

  • Validation: determine whether the data warrant further evaluation (strength of evidence, clinical relevance, novelty).
  • Prioritisation: by seriousness, severity, reversibility, and public-health impact; high-priority signals are expedited.
  • Assessment: structured benefit-risk evaluation using all available data; documented with a recommendation.

6. Outcomes and Risk Minimisation

Possible outcomes: refute, keep under monitoring, or confirm. Confirmed signals trigger labeling changes, RMP updates (new identified/potential risk, additional risk-minimisation/aRMM), DHPC, and regulatory notification; tracked to closure in the signal-tracking log and reflected in the next PBRER (PSUR-001).

7. Timelines, Documentation, and Governance

Signals are logged with detection date, status, and milestones; statutory timelines (e.g., EU emerging-safety-issue notification; validated-signal assessment) are met. Decisions and CAPAs are governed per PM-005 and the issue/CAPA process (QA-003).
