Post-Authorization Safety Studies
When you need to conduct robust post-authorization safety studies, we work with you to deliver high-quality safety data that meets regulatory standards and prioritizes patient safety.
Improve Your Product Safety Assurance with PASS
Post-authorization safety studies (PASS) are instrumental in showcasing the superior safety profile of your products, improving market access, and meeting regulatory or HTA requirements. A well-designed and executed PASS provides crucial real-world data (RWD) that informs regulatory decisions and deepens understanding of your product’s safety profile and post-authorization outcomes. It also helps regulatory authorities and payers make informed decisions about product value.
Our priority is to deliver reliable and high-quality safety data for your product with thorough outcome validation for improved market access and patient safety. Conventional adverse event reporting often underreports events and observes only selected patient populations. In contrast, population-based database studies on safety provide a more comprehensive and efficient approach to address these evidence requirements. Cytel’s real-world evidence (RWE) experts leverage claims and registry databases to conduct robust PASS. In addition, we offer solutions for long-term registries and follow-up, pregnancy exposure studies, and HCP and patient surveys, ensuring a thorough and holistic approach to your research needs.

We ensure your study execution is both tailored and comprehensive by customizing our approach to each country’s regulations and operational needs. While prioritizing adherence to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidelines throughout study design and execution, we also proactively address potential data validity and representativeness challenges.
