ESSENTIAL BIOSTATISTICS CONCEPTS MADE EASY DESCRIPTION“Leave the statistics to the statisticians” – true, and both statisticians and non-statisticians agree. However, statisticians don’t operate in isolation. Communication and teamwork are essential for modern drug development. A basic understanding of how each other works can make everyone more effective. This short course is designed specifically for that purpose. We aim to equip you with the basic statistical concepts relevant to non-statisticians’ work, and demonstrate how such knowledge can improve your own performance. No formulae or Greek letters – guaranteed!

HOW TO COMPLETE A CDISC-COMPLIANT CRF ANNOTATION DESCRIPTIONThe annotated CRF (a-CRF) will document the tables, variable item names, forms, visits and any other objects as well as code lists in clinical trials. It is one of important tools to specify the information about the structure of clinical database/CRF and each datasets. The a-CRF is also required in a submission of trial outcomes for review by regulatory authorities. When a clinical data management processes a CRF, he should appropriately understand how to handle the data collected in the CRF. Thus, CRF annotation is essential to guide CDM to interpret and program definitions of data set recorded in CRF. This workshop is designed to provide the unique opportunity to hear from a variety of perspectives on the challenge and goal of successful CRF annotation. The topics will cover overview of CRF annotation, two types of a-CRF, methodology of CRF annotation, data standards of CDISC/CDASH/SDTM overview, diabetes case examples of two type’s a-CRF etc. The interactive small group discussions will be included for attendees to have an opportunity to discuss real-life problems and solutions in day-to-day CRF annotation.

HOW MULTIPLE-DISCIPLINARY DEPARTMENT IN AUTHORITY WORKS COLLABORATIVELY TO MANAGE/REGULATE PRODUCT QUALITY SeSSion Chair

Hengxu WEI, PhDDirector, CMC Regulatory Affairs, GSK

The aim for the presentation is to help China CDE, National lab and CHP to work together to address quality of products, rather than each department works independently to issue new policy/guideline. There is a real case for antibiotics quality control in China which creates difficulty to industry. CDE requires all antibiotics product specifically to meet EMA/CHMP/QWP/199250/2009 - Setting Specifications for Related Impurities in Antibiotics, which requires any unknown impurity to be either controlled at <0.2% in product or to be identified. However it is clearly indicated by EMA this guideline is not retrospective so only applicable to new registration, and all existing product just needs to comply with EP. It reflects insufficient communication between ChP and CDE.

THE RESPONSIBILITIES TO SPEED UP CLINICAL TRIALSSeSSion Chair

Shuting LI, MDDirector, GCP Center, the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences

It is shown that only 60% of the time is used for subjects’ enrollment during the clinical trial, and the other 40% is wasted on the approving issues by government departments, sponsors, CRO, ECs and site management offices. Being a participant of

the trial, everyone has the reason for using the time on reviewing, negotiating and bargaining with EC, legal departments and so on, these kinds of process will waste time from 2 months to 6 months and even longer. In this session we will invite some experts representing various fields to discuss, from different aspects, how to speed up the clinical trial, to develop effective methods to solve the problems we have met.

THE FEASIBILITY OF INITIATING CLINICAL TRIALS BY SINGLE IRB APPROVING IN CHINASeSSion Chair

Shuting LI, MDDirector, GCP Center, the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences

In multicenter clinical trials, each clinical trial will undergo an initial full-board review, subsequent annual reviews and so on by IRBs varying from several to hundreds. These multiple IRB reviews create a largely redundant, time-consuming workload. Last year NIH issued a draft policy to promote the use of single institutional review boards or IRBs to reduce duplication of effort, speed the initiation of important research, and save time and taxpayer funds.

Is it time for us to use single IRB in China? What kind of crisis may meet if single IRB is used? In this session we will invite some experts from several fields to discuss on the feasibility of ethical review by single IRB in China.

CLINICAL OPERATION RISK BASED MONITORING SeSSion Chair

Vicky CHEN, MDSenior Director, Clinical Development, Greater China, INC Research

The conduct of clinical trials requires the sponsors to monitor clinical trials in order to ensure an adequate protection of research subject rights, safety and welfare as well as to ensure the quality and integrity of the data collected that is going to be submitted with the purpose of marketing applications. With the increased complexity of studies, there is a need to focus on the most critical data elements using a risk-based approach to monitoring. The effective integration of data sources and its analysis are key enablers for the innovation aimed at improving efficiencies. The use of computerized systems and the continued digitalization offer unique opportunities for data driven decisions and quality oversight. The aim of this session is to explore the challenges and opportunities for the risk based monitoring strategies in emerging regions such as Latin America and Asia. The complex regulatory framework, increased communication technology tools, cultural diversity and the increasingly globalized approach for the conduction of clinical trials create unique difficulties for sites, and sponsor/CROs in diverse geographies when implementing risk based monitoring strategies.

STATISTICAL METHODS FOR ONCOLOGY CLINICAL TRIALSSeSSion Chair

Ouhong WANG, PhDDirector, Biostatistics, Amgen

Oncology clinical trials have unique challenges compared with non-oncology trials: The unmet medical needs are greater which demand speedier clinical trial conduct. Biomarkers are usually a consideration that drives patient selection and treatment strategy. The clinical endpoints are often time-to-event measures that require special analysis methods beyond the familiar ones for continuous or categorical variables. Also endpoint censoring is a feature that can miss valuable information if not properly handled. Statistical methodology utilized in the oncology area is therefore unique and requires special study. In this session, several statistical issues relevant to oncology will be presented and discussed. Real examples and potential applications are employed whenever possible.

INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO ENSURING QUALITY IN CLINICAL TRIALS AND COMPLIANCE TO GOOD CLINICAL PRACTICE (GCP)SeSSion Chair

Helen LIAsia Lead, Pfizer Medical Quality Assurance

A quality management system (QMS) is an integrated framework through which organizations can systemically plan and achieve their quality objectives. While ICH Q10 provides clear guidance for QMS in the pharmaceutical manufacturing sector, no existing guidance describes a framework that provides an enterprise-wide view of achievement of clinical quality objectives; that is capable of being customized to fit an organization’s unique circumstances; and that accommodates the variability inherent in clinical


33


development. In the absence of such guidance, clinical QMS vary dramatically across industry, sometimes resulting in over-engineered, cumbersome systems that are not adaptable or fit for-purpose. Without change in industry perceptions, a Clinical QMS will continue to be viewed as rigid and as a barrier to innovative approaches in clinical development and to delivery of medicinal products to patients in need.

This session will invite our CFDA officials to share their expectations of quality and clinical QMS in China in the future. We will describe ongoing activities of a TransCelerate workstream evaluating clinical QMS. Panelists will discuss ongoing development of a concept paper describing a progressive clinical QMS framework designed to provide a consistent, streamlined, and proactive quality approach across all stages of clinical research. The concept paper will be supplemented with more tactical guidance for issue management and knowledge management; panelists will also review these workstream activities. The concept paper and associated guidance will assist industry in moving from what regulators have described as a one-size-fits-all, traditional quality approach to an innovative, streamlined quality model focused on preventing “errors that matter.”

SITE MANAGEMENT & SMO SeSSion Chair

Reako RENExecutive Director and Head of SMO Services, WuXi Apptec.

SMO has been widely and deeply involved in current China clinical research site operation, and it takes important role on improvement of project progress and quality. However, under uncertain regulation environment and complicated medical environment, it exists a lot of arguments in SMO operation model, SMO-site collaboration model, how to properly use of SMO in clinical projects etc. That's why SMO/CRC has become a hot "topic" at recent industry conferences. The industry players have common belief that more extensive discussion on this topic would help more build reasonable cooperation model with SMO, benefit compliance of SMO operation, then finally improve China clinical research industry.

On this session, we will heard voices from study site, SMO and sponsor, together share experience and resolutions to the complicated clinical site operation environment, eventually improve the efficiency and quality of China site operation.

GENERIC DRUG FORUM (PART III) - LESSONS LEARNED FROM QUALITY AND COMPLIANCE INSPECTIONSeSSion Chair

Lee KANG, PhD, MBA Vice President and General Manager, Achlis GroupConsultant, The Perrigo Company, Hong Kong

Since US FDA issued in 2004 the "risk based factory inspection," it effectively managed its limited resources to ensure the compliance of all domestic manufacturers. However, the US has found multiple quality incidents involving imported foods and drugs from overseas. In 2008 US FDA has established overseas branches as part of the international program to strengthen its oversight beyond the border. Today, US FDA has local offices in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou to manage issues related to exports to the US. In 2009 and 2010, US Congress enacted FDA Globalization Act and Drug Safety and Accountability Act, respectively, to provide additional control of drugs that are imported from overseas. This has significant impact on Chinese pharmaceutical companies as China accounts for a large part of pharmaceutical raw materials and products exporting to the US. In recent years, China has had several quality issues that drew attention from the world. As the trade continued to grow, regulatory agencies in both the US and EU countries have increased their inspections in China as the supply chain becomes greatest challenge. This session focuses on quality and compliance inspections and quality regulations. Through case studies and analysis, the speakers from both regulatory authorities and industry will present from their respective points of view and real-life experiences in quality and compliance requirements, how to establish quality system and specifications, and best practice and the risk management. It aims to provide coherent overview of

how Chinese companies can work collaboratively with regulators and to achieve quality standards to ensure safety and best interest for consumers.
