ADR vs AESI

ADR

A response to an Ipsen product which is noxious and unintended. Response in this context means that a causal relationship between an Ipsen product and an adverse event (AE) is at least a reasonable possibility. ADRs may arise from use of the product within or outside the terms of the marketing authorisation or from occupational exposure. Conditions of use outside the marketing authorisation include off-label use, overdose, misuse, abuse and medication errors.

AESI

As per CIOMS VII, an adverse event of special interest (serious or non-serious) is one of scientific and medical concern specific to the sponsor’s product, for which ongoing monitoring and rapid communication by the investigator to the sponsor could be appropriate. Such an event might require further investigation in order to characterise and understand it. Depending on the nature of the event, rapid communication by the trial sponsor to other parties (e.g., regulators) might also be warranted.

Abuse vs Misuse

Abuse

Abuse corresponds to the persistent or sporadic, intentional excessive and non therapeutic use by a patient or consumer of a medicinal product, which is accompanied by harmful physical or psychological effects

Intercepted medication error vs Potential meciation error

Intercepted medication error

An intercepted medication error refers to the situation where medication error, which could have resulted in a potential adverse drug reaction has occurred but was prevented from reaching the patient or consumer. The intervention has prevented actual harm being caused to the patient.

Potential medication error

A potential medication error refers to all possible mistakes in a prescribing, storing, dispensing, preparation for administration or administration of a medicinal product by all persons who are involved in the medication process and may lead to a medication error with or without harm. It is the recognition of circumstances that could lead to a medication error and may or may not involve a patient.

EAP vs PSP

EAP

An Ipsen Product Access Request from a Physician with the product access managed via a program.

PSP

Structured programs which interact with individual patients who are eligible for or are being prescribed an Ipsen registered and commercialized product within the approved label. These programs can be conducted by Ipsen either with or without service providers.

Registered product with a set price to sell (private and/or reimbursed)

PSPs are non-promotional and are offered for the benefit of the patients. Key objectives are to:

  • Support patients and help them to use and take their medications as prescribed (compliance/adherence) and/or
  • Help patients understand their condition and provide advise managing their disease and common comorbidities e.g. lifestyle and disease education and/or
