Regulatory intelligence

Suppliers must implement new protocols for safety reporting and record-keeping as per the proposed framework.

MAHs and sponsors must register for an EMA account and appropriate role to submit via the IRIS platform, as this is a new requirement for all IRIS submissions.

Ensure all relevant teams are prepared to transition to the mandatory SEND format for data submissions by the effective date of 15 June 2026.

1) Verify your internal signal assessment narrative for GLP-1 RAs reflects FDA’s statement that the preliminary evaluation does not suggest a causal link; 2) Check whether any company-facing statements, FAQs, or labeling change proposals referencing suicidality need to be updated for consistency with FDA’s current public position; 3) Log the FDA update in regulatory intelligence tracking and maintain monitoring for further FDA conclusions or requests (including the linked 13 Jan 2026 communication).

1) Retrieve and review the updated “Submitting risk management plans guidance document” (PDF) and linked templates referenced from the overview (e.g., RMP note to reviewer, Canadian-specific addendum, RMP summary template) and map deltas vs the superseded 2015 approach. 2) Update Canada submission checklists/work instructions for the 1 July 2025 effective date, including the requirement that the RMP include a summary in English and French and use of the RMP summary attestation/acknowledgment form. 3) Ask Regulatory Intelligence/RA to brief PV leadership on the Agile Licensing notice timeline (RMP provisions in force 1 April 2027) and confirm how transitional provisions will be operationalized for existing RMPs submitted prior to that date.

Safety lead to: (1) perform a UK-clinical-trial safety reporting gap assessment against MHRA’s effective guidance sections (MedDRA coding; AE/SAE; RSI governance; SUSARs; annual safety reporting; USMs; serious breaches; temporary suspension), (2) update controlled SOPs/WIs and training records to reflect “effective” status as of 28 Apr 2026, and (3) document deviations/gaps and open CAPA where needed for ongoing UK trials and new submissions.

Safety/Device Vigilance owner to: (1) confirm SOPs and training link to MHRA’s “Medical devices: post-market surveillance” collection as the live index; (2) validate operational readiness to submit adverse incident and FSCA-related reports via MHRA’s referenced MORE route; (3) confirm device PSUR process uses MHRA-linked standardised PSUR format and PSUR guidance tied to the Regulations 2024 framework; (4) update internal regulatory intelligence trackers with the 16 June 2025 in-force date cited across MHRA guidance, and monitor related MHRA future regime pages for further updates.

1) Inventory AI use cases that could feed regulated decisions (including PV/safety-related analyses or summaries used in regulatory interactions) and map owners/vendors. 2) For each AI use case, document context of use, intended outputs, and controls (e.g., review/approval, traceability, change management) aligned to a draft-guidance tracking plan. 3) Track the Federal Register notice and plan whether to submit comments within the window described by FDA (90 days after Federal Register publication).

1) Add/confirm the TGA 'medical device post-market monitoring and safety updates' page as a tracked regulatory intelligence source for routine review. 2) Cross-check internal Australia device vigilance SOPs/work instructions against TGA guidance on sponsor/manufacturer post-market responsibilities and document any gaps for CAPA/change control as needed.
