This session will focus on recent updates regarding the modernisation of the regulatory framework to facilitate the timely approval of PACs (Post-Approval Changes), including EDA’ s experience in reliance implementation to the variations’ system. In addition, two case studies from industry will be shared regarding how to enhance the use of reliance and PACMP (Post Approval Change Management Protocol) to accelerate PAC approval. Regulators and industry will discuss how to optimise the LCM framework by leveraging the lessons learnt from case studies, opportunities for harmonisation with international guideline and including PACMP in the local guideline, with the ultimate goal of enabling fast approval of PACs and securing supply of medicines to patients.
