ARE INFORMED PATIENTS COST-EFFECTIVE? HOW TO ENSURE THAT<br />

PATIENTS UNDERSTAND THE DECISIONS BEING MADE ON THEIR MEDICINES<br />

Session Chair:<br />

Jean Mossman, Consultant and Policy Advisor to European Federation of<br />

Neurological Associations (EFNA), UK<br />

The aim of the session is to look at how patients can understand decisions made<br />

on their medicines after the product has reached the market. One area to be<br />

considered is how patients can understand and contribute to the decisions<br />

being taken by the Heath Technology Assessment bodies on whether a<br />

medicine will be made available through a country's healthcare system. An<br />

additional area to look at is where patients can add to the knowledge gathered<br />

on the safety of a medicinal product and the analysis of that knowledge as the<br />

product is used in a population wider than that used for clinical evaluation.<br />

Can Regulatory Authorities Take Account of the patients’ Needs in their<br />

Decisions? How do Regulatory Authorities consider the Patient’s Need for<br />

Efficacy rather than the Consumer’s Need for Safety?<br />

Supporting Individual Patients in Decisions about their Medicines: How can<br />

patients be more involved in decisions about which drugs are available?<br />

HOW INVOLVED CAN INFORMED PATIENTS BE IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND<br />

COMMERCIALISATION OF MEDICINES?<br />

Session Chair:<br />

Cecilia Potez, Director, EU and International Regulatory Policy & Intelligence,<br />

AstraZeneca, UK<br />

Citizens and society in the modern world take a more active interest in<br />

healthcare issues than was traditionally the case. They increasingly wish to be<br />

more involved in development decisions but how much input to the decisionmaking<br />

will industry relinquish, particular when making determinations on<br />

clinical endpoints and PROs. Is drug development really meeting the needs of<br />

patients and society?<br />

PATIENT USE OF INFORMATION ON MEDICINAL PRODUCTS<br />

Session Chair:<br />

Anders Olauson, <strong>Pre</strong>sident, European Patients’ Forum, Sweden<br />

The overall aim of the session is to look at how patients use currently available<br />

information. In particular, looking at how patients use information that they get<br />

from healthcare professionals, fellow sufferers, providers of the treatment and<br />

other sources. This session will have a greater focus on diseases that affect the<br />

wider society (e.g. oncology, stroke, diabetes etc).<br />

WHAT INFORMATION DO PATIENTS WANT ON MEDICINAL PRODUCTS AND<br />

HOW FAR DO THE CURRENT PROVISIONS GO TO MEET THESE NEEDS?<br />

Session Chair:<br />

Mary Baker, MBE, <strong>Pre</strong>sident of European Federation of Neurological<br />

Associations (EFNA), UK<br />

Different patients have different information needs depending on many factors<br />

including the condition itself, the stage of the condition and the patient<br />

themselves. This session will look to ask the question whether the information<br />

that a patient needs and wants is already available - they just need to know<br />

where to find it.<br />

Theme 11<br />

eHealth<br />

Theme Leaders:<br />

Valdo Arnera, General Manager, Europe, PHT Corporation, Switzerland<br />

Pierre-Yves Lastic, Senior Director, Data Privacy & Healthcare Interoperability<br />

Standards, sanofi-aventis, France<br />

The influence of technology on healthcare and clinical development has seen an<br />

unprecedented growth in recent years. This theme intends to cover the value<br />

brought by these new technologies, whether these have been used for a while,<br />

like EDC or ePRO, or whether they are emerging or still a vision of what they<br />

could bring to the way we will develop drugs and treat patients in the next 10<br />

years.<br />

THE NEW IT ARCHITECTURE FOR MEETING THE CHALLENGES OF eHEALTH<br />

Session Chair:<br />

Pierre-Yves Lastic, Senior Director, Data Privacy & Healthcare Interoperability<br />

Standards, sanofi-aventis, France<br />

The acceleration of the adoption of Electronic Health Records (EHR) all over the<br />

globe has pushed the pharma R&D to start to look at ways of allowing patient<br />

eData to be used in clinical trials. Countries like the Scandinavian countries, the<br />

UK or Netherlands have been paving the way to adopt EHR in their respective<br />

countries, needing the implementation of national Heath IT infrastructures that<br />

will be presented. Also, in the US, the FDA has requested more and more data<br />

to be submitted in an electronic format, and the new FDA IT architecture wil<br />

also be presented.<br />
