11:00-12:30 Session 0202/0302<br />

DECISION-MAKING PROCESS OF BENEFIT/RISK ASSESSMENT – A<br />

COLLABORATIVE FRAMEWORK APPROACH (JOINT WITH THEME 3)<br />

Session Chair:<br />

Iman Barilero, Vice President, Regulatory Development Strategy & Policy, H.<br />

Lundbeck A/S, Denmark<br />

The session will provide an opportunity to discuss the CHMP work on<br />

methodologies for B/R assessment and address the views from industry and<br />

patients.<br />

The use of a consistent and transparent B/R assessment framework for<br />

decision making would facilitate communication of the rationale for decisions,<br />

but it should retain sufficient flexibility. An area of potential research is the<br />

further development of quantitative tools, which should not lead to a B/R ratio<br />

expressed as one single figure.<br />

Another area that requires deep reflection is how the B/R assessment will be<br />

applied in the so-called ‘staggered’ approval and how this approach will be<br />

integrated in the newly proposed B/R management plan. The implications of<br />

such an approach on the R&D investment should be assessed.<br />

IMPLEMENTATION OF THE REVISED VARIATIONS REGULATION – ARE THE<br />

OBJECTIVES BEING MET? (JOINT WITH THEME 14)<br />

Session Chair:<br />

Michael J. James, Head of CMC Regulatory Advocacy and Intelligence, Global<br />

Regulatory Affairs, GlaxoSmithKline, <strong>UK</strong><br />

The revised Variations Regulation (EC No. 1234/2008) applied from 1st January<br />

2010 to marketed authorisations granted through a mutual recognition process,<br />

decentralised procedure or centralised procedure. The overall objectives of<br />

this revision were to provide a simpler, clearer and more flexible legislative<br />

framework governing variations.<br />

Based on 15 months' experience, industry and regulatory experts will<br />

provide a perspective on whether these objectives are being met. Specific<br />

considerations will be given to experience on procedural aspects, managing<br />

CMC changes, and implications for e-Submissions.<br />
