Bionical Emas introduces Veeva Vault Safety

By utilising our highly experienced UK based team, combined with Veeva Vault Safety, the Bionical Emas Pharmacovigilance Team deliver a regulatory compliant and cost-effective solution, to outsourced drug safety activities.

Ensuring the benefit risk balance of a pharmaceutical product is imperative. The global trend is an intensification of Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) reporting, with the aim to target spontaneous reporting, to better estimate the incidences of ‘known’ ADRs. Accompanying this is a push towards automation and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to improve accuracy, quality and consistency around adverse event data1. Bionical Emas is continuously developing and implementing processes and systems, to support clients in meeting these trends. Transitioning to Veeva Vault Safety, is part of Bionical Emas’ strategy to ensure we are able to continually support our clients in an ever-changing environment.

The Bionical Emas Pharmacovigilance Team are strongly positioned to capture and process safety data from a range of sources, such as Early Access and Clinical Development Programs to ensure our clients safety requirements are managed and remain compliant to Good Pharmacovigilance Practice.

In April 2021, Bionical Emas will become the first CRO in the UK to utilise Veeva Vault Safety. The combination of Bionical Emas’ ability to manage and process Post-Marketing, Clinical Trial and Expanded Access data, via Veeva Vault Safety’s powerful and flexible solution, will enable our clients to maximise their product safety data.
