4 Reports

4.1 Reports: PMDA Expedited Reports

This section describes the J specific PMDA Expedited Report changes.

4.1.1 Report Scheduling

As part of the PMDA E2B R3 implementation, the application is enhanced for the reporting related requirements.

  • Urgent Report flag: You can schedule an Urgent report for a Product License based on the value of Case form > Analysis Tab > PMDA Information Tab > General Tab > Urgent Report Checkbox for that License.

  • Aware Date: You can schedule a report for an Aware Date based on the value selected in the Case form > Analysis Tab > PMDA Information Tab > Comments Tab > Start date of reporting timeframe drop-down for that License.

  • Downgrade/Nullification flag: Determines whether the report is Nullification or Downgrade. The preference is given to the manually selected value Case form > Analysis Tab > PMDA Information Tab > Comments Tab > Downgrade Report flag drop-down for that License.

    Besides, the logic to schedule Nullification report in case Investigation license for Event invalidation scenarios is updated to be in synchronization with Marketed Report.

  • Nullification Against changed Reporting Category: Enables you to schedule both R2/R3 as Nullification report against a License for which Reporting Category was changed. The new Justification field is used as the Nullification reason.

  • Aware Date/Due Date of a downgrade/Nullification reports: Schedules a Downgrade/Nullification report based on the Aware date and Due Date as per the latest case data rather than copying from previous report.

  • Nullification Report Distribution flag: Enable you to maintain Downgrade/Nullification report status (to not always mark the schedule Downgrade/Nullification report) for Auto Transmission, and follows a regular follow-up report workflow (as configured).

4.1.2 Paper Reports

Argus J is able to generate and submit the following expedited paper report formats specified by PMDA (both E2B R2 and E2B R3) for drugs.

PMDA forms for Marketed Drugs:

  • Drug AE/Infection case report form 1

  • Drug AE/Infection case form 2 (5pages)

  • Surveillance report on drug, quasi drug, cosmetic case report form 3

  • Surveillance report on drug, quasi drug, cosmetic case report form 4

  • Surveillance report on measures taken for drug outside Japan such as production termination, recall, rejection, etc. form 5

  • Surveillance report on measures taken for drug outside Japan such as production termination, recall, rejection, etc. form 6

PMDA forms for Investigational Drugs:

  • Investigational product AE/Infection case report form 1

  • Investigational product AE/Infection case form 2

  • Surveillance report on investigational product research report form 3

  • Surveillance report on investigational product research report form 4

  • Surveillance report on measures taken for investigational product outside Japan such as production termination, recall, rejection, etc. form 5

  • Surveillance report on measures taken for investigational product outside Japan such as production termination, recall, rejection, etc. form 6

Besides, for PMDA R2 Report—Paper Report generation logic for PMDA Marketed Form 1 and 2, and PMDA Investigation Form 1 and 2 are enhanced to be in synchronization with CIOMS and MedWatch reports for different type of users.

The Report Form List is used in the following sections:

  • Console J - Expedited Report Rules - Form section (irrespective of whether Japanese module is enabled or disabled)

  • Schedule New Expedited Report dialogue - Form section (only if Japanese module is enabled)

  • Medical Review - Preview of Expedited Report (only if Japanese module is enabled)

Report Handling

If an initial paper report (or a follow-up) was scheduled with Agency having the PMDA E2B R2 profile, and now the Agency configuration is updated to E2B R3 profile then the paper report respects the ongoing series and a new follow-up is generated in R3 paper format.

Note that, when submitting a follow-up report for a report submitted and received as an R2 Report, it is possible to switch to an R3 Report. However, submitting a follow-up report for a report submitted and received as an R3 Report, you will not be able to switch to an R2 Report.

Figure 4-1 Sample R3 Report

Surrounding text describes Figure 4-1 .

Sending a FAX report (PMDA Paper Report Form) for immediate notifications

In case of a death in a case, it is now possible to generate and send a FAX report for immediate notification to PMDA.

In the PMDA E2B profile, the Argus Safety application distinguishes the PMDA reporting destination from other partner reporting destinations configured in Argus Console, based on the Agency Type and Agency Country fields configured in the Reporting Destination code list.

The E2B or Paper Report is scheduled for PMDA only when the When Agency Type is Regulatory Authority and Country is selected as Japan.

In the event of this not being the case, the application will not transmit the J.4b value in it and will also not perform the associated validation for the J.4b value.

The E2B Viewer > PMDA Paper Report Forms view still displays the associated J.4b value for PMDA E2Bs as it is still based on an E2B report.

4.1.2.1 Additional Expedited Report Updates

The Expedited reports which are faxed to the PMDA need to be identified by which receiver is sending the information. This is done by the Additional Header information on the report output.

  • The following profile switches are added to Console > System Configuration > Argus J > Reporting. These switches are specific to the Enterprise:

    #
    Field Label Field Length
    1 Marketed: Form 1,2 40
    2 Marketed: Form 3,4 40
    3 Marketed: Form 5,6 40
    4 Investigational: Form 1,2 40
    5 Investigational: Form 3,4 40
    6 Investigational: Form 5,6 40

    These switches are depicted in the following figure:

    Surrounding text describes exp1.jpg.
  • The Reporting Destination Configuration has an Include FAX Header on PMDA Paper Reports Argus J user-specific checkbox on the Agency Configuration tab.

    Surrounding text describes exp2.jpg.
  • This checkbox is enabled only when FAX is selected as the Preferred Method and is reset to disabled and blank when Preferred Method is set to something else.

  • By default, this field is unchecked for existing and newly created Reporting Destinations.

  • You can mark this option for a Reporting Destination and the changes made to this flag are audit logged and printed as part of Codelist Maintenance Print PDF.

  • Fax header is printed only if the Include FAX Header on PMDA Paper Reports is marked for that Reporting Destination.

    Surrounding text describes exp3.jpg.
  • Text entered in the Common Profile Switch is printed on the first page of the PMDA Paper Report:

    • Fax header text is printed in MS Mincho font of size 16.

    • Fax header text is printed in the line below the Report Format Number and is aligned to the left.

      Figure 4-2 Fax Header in R2 Paper Report

      Surrounding text describes Figure 4-2 .

      Figure 4-3 Fax Header in R3 Paper Report

      Surrounding text describes Figure 4-3 .
    • If you clear the Fax Header Text for the PMDA Paper reports in the Common Profile Switch, the header is left blank in the report.

      Note printed on PMDA Paper Reports > Marketed Forms 1, 3 and 5 is removed as it is a data entry description (for FAX as well as when sent through Email ) Report Note to be removed (English Translation)
      Marketed Form 1 Note: Format No.2(1) to (5) have to be attached
      Marketed Form 3 Note: Form 4 should be attached together.
      Marketed Form 5 Note: Attach Form 6 together.

      The following figure depicts the PMDA Paper Report Sample:

      Surrounding text describes exp5.jpg.
  • PMDA Marketed Form 1 and 2, and PMDA Investigation Form 1 and 2 Paper Report generation logic are enhanced to be in synchronization with CIOMS and MedWatch reports for different type of users.

    User Description
    Restricted User for whom Console > Access Management > Argus > User > "Protect from Printing Unblinded Information" is checked.
    Non-Restricted User User for whom Console > Access Management > Argus > User > "Protect from Printing Unblinded Information" is not checked.
    Blinded Study Case Case with a blinded study which is still not eligible for unblinding irrespective of the fact that the blind for the case is broken or not it shall be considered as a blinded case.
    Blinded Report The report for which the configured Blind Study Product is marked as Yes.

    • When a restricted user generates/prints the report for a Blinded Study Case (Blinded report and Not Blinded report), if the "Blind in PMDA AE Paper Report" checkbox is selected, the profile elements are printed as blinded.

    • When a Non-Restricted user generates:

      Blinded Report: The application generates/prints a report as a Blinded Study Case, if the "Blind in PMDA AE Paper Report" checkbox is selected, and the profile elements are listed as blinded.

      Not Blinded Report: A "Do you want to hide Unblinded Information?" dialog box appears.

      If you select "No", the report is printed without blinding the any information.

      If you select "Yes", the report is printed after blinding the profile elements for which "Blind in PMDA AE Paper Report" checkbox is selected.

    • For blinding B.4.K.2.1 MEDICINALPRODUCT and B.4.k.2.2 ACTIVESUBSTANCENAME, the report is printed in the following format:

      B_<Blinded Study Name>(B_<Study Level CCN)>)

    • Blinded G.k.2.2 & G.k.2.3.r.1/ G.k.2.3.r.2(a,b)/ G.k.2.3.r.3(a,b) are printed as:

      • G.k.2.2 MEDICINALPRODUCT—Prints <Study Level CCN> for the PMDA Paper report forms 1-2.

        For blinded output, when CCN from J2.12 tag is printed for G.k.2.2, J2.12 is suppressed, so that it is not repeated in the same field.

      • G.k.2.3.r.1/ G.k.2.3.r.2(a,b)/ G.k.2.3.r.3(a,b) ACTIVESUBSTANCENAME—Prints <Generic Name from Case form> for the PMDA Paper report forms 1-2.

        In case G.k.2.3.r.1 is required to be printed along with G.k.2.3.r.2 or G.k.2.3.r.3, for blinded output, the application prints <Generic Name from Case form> only once without repeating in place of G.k.2.3.r.2 or G.k.2.3.r.3.

      • For blinded output, products that are only study drugs are blinded. All non-study drugs in the case are not blinded in the Paper Form.

    • Blinding J.10/J2.11 (mhlwadmicsrreporttimesevent) element is governed based on the "Blind in PMDA AE Paper Report" in ESM Mapping and "Blind J.10/J2.11 in PMDA AE Paper" of the License for which the report is scheduled (PMDA E2B R2 or PMDA E2B R3 respectively).

      a. If in PMDA Profile, for J.10/J2.11 "Blind in PMDA AE Paper Report" is unchecked, then irrespective of the value the checkbox "Blind J.10/J2.11 in PMDA AE Paper " for the corresponding License against which the report (blinded or not blinded) is scheduled, and also irrespective of the Blinded status of the case, J.10/J2.11 is not be blinded for both Restricted as well as Non-Restricted user.

      b. If in PMDA Profile, for J.10/J2.11 "Blind in PMDA AE Paper Report" is checked:

      i. If the checkbox "Blind J.10/J2.11 in PMDA AE Paper " " for the corresponding License against which the report is scheduled is checked then irrespective of the Blinded status of the case when a restricted user prints/views the PMDA Paper Report Form 1-2 MKT/INV the application always Blinds the J.10/J2.11 data in the report, and when Non-Restricted user prints/views the PMDA Paper Report Form 1-2 MKT/INV:

      * Blinded Report: The application prints/views the PMDA Paper Report Form 1-2 MKT/INV, and always Blind the J.10/J2.11 data in the report.

      * Not Blinded report: The application prompts a "Do you want to hide Unblinded Information?" dialog box. If you select "No", then the report is printed without blinding the J.10/J2.11, but if select "Yes", then the report is printed after blinding the J.10/J2.11.

      ii. If the checkbox "Blind J.10/J2.11 in PMDA AE Paper " " for the corresponding License against which the report is scheduled is un-checked, and the case is a blinded study case, when a restricted user prints/views the PMDA Paper Report Form 1-2 MKT/INV the application Blinds the J.10/J2.11 data in the report, and when Non-Restricted user prints/views he PMDA Paper Report Form 1-2 MKT/INV:

      * Blinded Report: The application prints/views the PMDA Paper Report Form 1-2 MKT/INV, and always Blinds the J.10/J2.11 data in the report.

      * Not Blinded report: he application prompts a "Do you want to hide Unblinded Information?" dialog box. If you select "No", then the report prints without blinding the J.10/J2.11, but if you select "Yes", then the report prints after blinding the J.10/J2.11.

      iii. If the checkbox "Blind J.10/J2.11 in PMDA AE Paper" for the corresponding License against which the report is scheduled is un-checked and the Case is not a blinded study case, irrespective of the restricted and Non-Restricted user J.10/J2.11 is not blinded.

    • You can now print the submitted Blinded PMDA Paper Report from Reports > Compliance > Submitted Reports using Print Submitted Report without getting the following error:

      "Cannot print PMDA Paper Report for J E2B (Report Form Id = <report form id>, Case Num = <case num>) as user does not have access to blinded information."

4.1.2.2 Printed Paper Reports—Formatting Details

The general guidelines while printing the data in the paper form:

  • Prints textual values instead of the coded values to aid human readability.

  • If the number of rows to be printed in a multi-record section does not fit a page, then the same section is continued to the next page along with the table header until all the records are printed completely.

  • If a non-repeatable field value exceeds the space available in the page, it is continued to the next page to print the overflowing value (like in MS word) until the full value is printed completely. All other fields are printed as per the format.

  • The separators are used as:

    • Comma ','—Multi byte

    • Bracket '(' and ')'—Multi byte

    • Colon ':'—Multi Byte

    • Dash '-'—Single byte

  • Null flavor printing is also supported in Paper Forms.

  • True/False is printed in all forms as Yes/No respectively.

  • A form starts only in a new page in the PDF irrespective of previous page data.

    For example, if Form 2 Page 1 data is printed from page 3 of a report till page 4, then Form 3 Page 2 data is printed starting from page 5 and not from page 4 itself.

  • If the "Include FAX Header on PMDA Paper Reports" checkbox under the Reporting Destination > Agency Information tab is checked, then the Fax header is printed in the report as configured in the common profile switches for the respective PMDA paper report under Console > System Configuration > Argus J > Reporting.

    • Text entered in Common Profile Switch is printed on the first page of the PMDA Paper Report.

    • Fax header text is printed in MS Mincho with font size 16.

    • Fax header text is printed in the line below the Report Format Number and is aligned to the left.

  • The page number is printed in the Footer (center aligned) for each page.

    Format: <Current Page Number>/<Total Number of pages>

  • The report page number for each page (other than the main page 1, 3, and 5) is printed in the first table within the label label.

    Format: Report page number<space>/<space>Total pages in that report

4.1.3 User Interface - Reporting Rules Configuration

This functionality allows configuration of Regulatory Reporting rules for scheduling Japanese reports.

The following are the functionality changes related to the PMDA Expedited reports:

  • The License Category and Reporting Category fields are visible in Audit Log for Expedited Reporting Rules.

  • The Reporting Rules algorithm has been updated to respect the License Category configured in Expedited Reporting Rules.

  • The Reporting Category and License Category fields are printed below the Cover Letter field label under the Expedited Report Rule Information section of the print output.

  • If a report is generated for a License with PMDA Device Classification 1 configured either

    Description of fig6.jpg follows
    Description of the illustration ''fig6.jpg''

    then a warning Incorrect PMDA Device Classification 1 configured for the license is displayed. On continuing, the report will display no information for PMDA Device Classification 1.

4.1.4 Expedited Reports on DLP

In addition to supporting revisions supported by local data entry and local locks, DLP has been enhanced to address existing gaps faced by customers while generating Expedited Reports in DLP.

A version in DLP is defined as case data that corresponds to an aware date when a significant data was received (initial receipt date or significant follow up dates).

A revision is defined as committed case data changes that spans from one version to the other and that always corresponds to a locked version.

When DLP is enabled for Expedited Report Generation:

  • Global Expedited Reports are generated based on the latest DLP case revision that corresponds to the aware date on which the report was scheduled. Global reports has been generated even if the case is in unlocked state if a case version exists for that aware date on which the report was scheduled. This is applicable to both Draft and Final reports.

  • If a lock does not exist for the Aware Date on which the report was scheduled, the application picks up the next immediate DLP case revision for a later Aware Date for which a lock exists.

  • If no lock exists for any later aware date, see below.

    Note that this is an outlier condition and the customer is expected to lock the revisions for which reporting obligation exists.

    If no lock exists at all for any case revision, the report will not be generated, until the case is locked. Similarly, the Case Form will not display the Final report hyperlink or the Regenerate Report menu.

    Further, the Batch Report Generation AG Service will not process the case. However, if the report is run as Draft, the report generates the draft, based on the latest case revision, even if no lock exists for any case revision.

    Till this release, if more than one aware date existed in between case locks (global), the reporting scheduling algorithm determined the due date of the report based on the latest aware date, instead of the earlier aware dates in the same case processing cycle.

    This has now been corrected so that the report scheduling algorithm determines the due date of a report against the earliest aware date (i.e., significant follow-up) in the case for the current case lock cycle.

    Note that in this scenario, the reported data is based on the case revision corresponding to the later aware date. Also note that this scenario occurs mostly when the "Case Form Configuration | Auto Regulatory Scheduling" option is set to "Significant" or "Manual".

  • Local Expedited Reports are generated based on the latest DLP local case revision corresponding to which a local lock exists for Japan country for the Japanese aware date on which the report was scheduled (irrespective of current local lock state). This is applicable to both Draft and Final reports.

  • Note that the Japanese aware date is the J initial received or J significant follow-up dates if the USE_JPN_AWARE_DATE is enabled for the Reporting Destination. If the switch is not enabled, it is the global aware date. This is existing functionality.

  • If a local lock does not exist for the aware date on which the report was scheduled, the system shall pick up the next immediate DLP local case revision for a later aware date for which a local lock does exists. If no local lock exists at all for any case revision, the local report shall not be generated. However, if the report was run as Draft, the report shall generate the draft based on the latest case revision even if no lock exists for any case revision, or for any case revision for an aware date later to the aware date for which the report was scheduled.

  • J Expedited Reports always considers the J initial received and J significant follow-up dates as J aware date for determining due dates if the USE_JPN_AWARE_DATE is enabled for the Reporting Destination as with the existing functionality. If there is no Japan aware date or if the USE_JPN_AWARE_DATE is not set, the system defaults to the global aware date. This is applicable during follow-ups as well i.e., when there is no corresponding J follow-up date for a follow-up, the system takes the default global follow-up date.

4.1.5 PMDA Device Reports

  1. Two new Japanese expedited device report forms have been added to all expedited report listing sections in Argus Safety.

    • The following form options are displayed (in Japanese) to both English as well as Japanese users:

      Report Form 8: Medical Device Malfunction/Infection Case Report (Form 8)

      Report Form 10: Medical Device Research Report/Measure in foreign countries Report

    • These form options are displayed to both Japanese as well as English users.

    • These form options are supported at all the following locations in Argus Safety:

      Console J - Expedited Report Rules - Form Section (irrespective of whether Japanese module is enabled or disabled)

      Console J - Code list / Batch report generation (irrespective of whether Japanese module is enabled or disabled)

      Case Form - Toolbar - Draft (only if Japanese module is enabled)

      Schedule New Expedited Report dialogue - "Form" dropdown (only if Japanese module is enabled)

      Medical Review - Preview of Expedited Report (only if Japanese module is enabled)

      Create Unscheduled report (only if Japanese module is enabled)

      View Submitted report (irrespective of whether Japanese module is enabled or disabled)

      Bulk Report by Form (irrespective of whether Japanese module is enabled or disabled)

    • These forms are not added to the Utility Blank Report Form User Interface as the Utility Blank Report Form feature has been deprecated from Argus Safety 7.0.1 release onwards.

  2. These report forms open up in Microsoft Word format (.doc) from all the places in Argus Safety application as specified (but not restricted to) in the above specified list using the following forms provided by PMDA retaining all its fields, dropdowns and macros. However, these WORD forms are not meant to be edited and updated back into Argus Safety application.

    • The message box which prompts to ask the user if the expedited report will print blinded data or not is not displayed for these Japan Device Report Forms as there is no blinded data printed in these reports.

    • During Bulk Transmit Email process, these WORD report forms will not be merged even if Reporting Destination - Report Transmission Options have been configured to do so.

      Note:

      Merge feature is not required for these reports because the frequency of these Japan Device reports is quite low and there will hardly be any point of time when multiple WORD forms would exists in the system pending to be transmitted to a reporting destination.
  3. These report forms are generated in Microsoft Word format (.doc) itself from both Draft and Final mode.

    Note:

    These Japan Device Report Form 8 and 10 are not required to be supported on DLP case revision data as of now, because other PMDA Paper Reports and E2B are also not supported on DLP case revision data.
  4. No mandatory field validation will be done during generation of these report forms, except for the following. All other validations are expected to be achieved by using Case Form Field Validations feature on the desired fields of the PMDA Device Information section.

    • If the value specified in Case form/Products tab/Device sub tab/PMDA Device Information section/Medical Device Reporting Category dropdown for the product for which the report is scheduled does not match with the allowed values for Form 8 or Form 10, then instead of opening the Report Form, application displays an error in the standard Argus Safety message box with OK button and the following message:

      'Case does not have matching device reporting category for the selected device report form'

    • The same error is logged as a report generation error, including if it occurs during background generation through Argus Safety Service. This error is also visible in the Report Details dialog - General tab at the bottom, as is displayed for the E2B generation errors.

  5. Regulatory Reporting Rules Algorithm:

    • The Argus Safety Expedited Reporting Rules engine also considers "Device Reporting Category" dropdown value while matching rules against cases. It gets compared against the Case Form ' Products tab ' Device sub tab ' PMDA Device Information section ' Medical Device Reporting Category dropdown field value.

    • Argus Safety Expedited Reporting Rules engine scheduled the due date for these Japanese Device reports based on the Japan Aware Date, as configured in Reporting Destination configuration.

    • The Argus Safety Expedited Reporting Rules engine schedules only one Japanese Device Report for each matching rule, for each suspect device product in a case, even if the case has multiple Japanese Device Licenses of the same License Type in the Event Assessment tab of the case. It also respects the Reporting Destination configuration for "Suppress Duplicate Reports", as configured.

    • If multiple matching product licenses of the same device license type exist for a suspect device product in the Event Assessment tab, the license with the earliest award date of the matching product is considered for scheduling the report.

    • If the original product license for which the initial / previous follow-up report was scheduled is no longer available but another product license of the same product matching the same rule exists, then a follow-up report is scheduled in subsequent cycles instead of a downgrade.

      Downgrade is scheduled only when no licenses for that product matching that rule exist in the case.

  6. Draft report view: The following logic is followed for PMDA Device Report Forms 8 and 10 to identify the product license when these reports are opened up in draft view, where no product license and reporting destination is not specified:

    • The Draft report view is applicable to the following areas:

      Toolbar - Draft icon

      Medical Review screen

    • It uses the first matching suspect device product as per the sort order of products in the case form products tab which has the matching "Medical Device Reporting Category" specified in the "PMDA Device Information" section.

      The following criteria is used to find matching Medical Device Reporting Category for the Japanese Device Form:

      Allowed Device Reporting Categories for PMDA Device Form 8:

      a. Malfunction without health damage

      b. Malfunction with health damage

      c. Infection

      Allowed Device Reporting Categories for PMDA Device Form 10:

      a. Research Report

      b. Measures in Foreign Country Report

      Earliest award date: Japanese marketed device active license (withdrawn date later than the Initial Receipt date) of such product is used.

      If Japanese marketed device license is not available, the Japanese investigational device license matching the above specified criteria is used.

      If no such Japanese device license is available for the matching product, then it considers matching any (irrespective of license country or license type) earliest award date active device license for the product.

      In case of multiple device licenses with same award date, it uses the license with the earliest internal license id (primary key) value.

    • If no product exists with the matching "Medical Device Reporting Category" for the Report Form, then instead of opening this form, the application displays an error in the standard Argus Safety message box with OK button and message - "Case does not have matching device reporting category for the selected device report form".

    • It uses the agency as specified in the Argus J common profile switch - "Default name of Regulatory Agency for Draft Expedited PMDA Reports" for such draft report views.

  7. Manual Report Scheduling dialog for Argus J users is modified as specified below:

    If the user selects "Downgrade Report" as a dropdown option in the dialog header, then the "Report Form" dropdown list is updated to only display E2B and PMDA Marketed and Investigational Forms 1 - 6. Other expedited report forms or PMDA Device Report Forms are not displayed for "Downgrade Report" option.

4.2 Reports: PMDA Periodic Reports

In Japan, the PMDA accepts CSV format of Non-serious, Unlisted Periodic Report as well as paper format, and many pharma companies have started to submit using CSV forms. The following is the list of the functionality changes as a result of this requirement:

  • PSR ReSD configuration is enhanced by adding parameter for generating Non serious, Unlisted PSR in Paper and CSV format.

    Surrounding text describes pmda1.jpg.
    Configuration Parameter Validation Rule
    Radio button with options Paper Report(FD Report) When TBD is set to Paper Report in the PSR Configuration screen, Non-serious, Unlisted PSR(Form 7-1 and 7-2) are generated in the Paper Form.When TBD is set to FD Report in the PSR Configuration screen:The Form 7-1 and Form 7-2 checkboxes in the PSR Configuration screen are checked and disabled.The Print the report content as Case Listing in the separate paper PSR Configuration parameter is unchecked and disabled.Non-serious, Unlisted PSR (Form 7-1 and 7-2) are generated in CSV format.The Form 7-1 is generated in Paper format along with other PSR/ ReSD forms.

  • The radio button is set to Paper Report in the existing PSR Configuration for an upgraded database, if Form 7-1 or Form 7-2 is marked.

  • The Argus Safety standard Advanced Conditions control (as present in English Periodic Reports) is provided in PSR ReSD Configuration screen for inclusion or exclusion of cases for all forms of PSR and ReSD reports.

    Surrounding text describes pmda2.jpg.
    UI Element Validation Rule
    Dropdown The drop-down list displays the default options: None and New in the drop-down list. None is displayed by default.The Advanced Condition names are displayed in the alphabetical order.On specifying an Advanced condition, the system runs the query on the cases retrieved from Product selection and Reporting Time frame.
    Advanced Condition Lookup button The Advanced Condition Lookup dialog box is displayed on clicking this button.
    AC On clicking the AC button, the system displays a message with Yes, No, and Cancel buttons.If you select Yes , the system displays the Advanced Condition Query Set screen.If you select No, the system displays the Advanced Condition screen.If you select Cancel, the system closes the message.If you do not have rights to create or modify AC's, the AC button on the Japanese Periodic Report Configuration screen displays the following message in Japanese:

    You do not have the rights to create new Advanced Conditions.If there is no AC specified in Japanese Periodic Configuration screen, the Advanced condition (None) is printed.If there is an AC specified in Japanese Periodic Configuration screen, the Advanced condition(<AC Name>) is printed..


  • The Data population logic of FD report is the same as that of the Paper Report.

  • Every J Periodic Report or Form (not limited to the ones specified below) that fetches data based on the E2B Report submitted to the authority also considers the PMDA E2B R3 report along with the PMDA E2B R2 report.

    • PSR (Form 3, and 4)

    • ReSD (Form 4,5,7,8, and 9, and Listed/Unlisted Tabulation)

    • Seiyakukyo Clinical and Domestic Study Cases

4.2.1 DLP at Report Level

  • The DLP Configuration radio buttons, Use Current Case Version and Use DLP Case Version is moved to the Report level for PSR/ReSD, CTPR, and Seiyakukyo reports. The PSR/ReSD Report Configuration screen is shown below:

    Surrounding text describes pmda3.jpg.
  • These radio button options are displayed only when DLP is enabled.

  • The DLP Configuration radio buttons, Use Current Case Version and Use DLP Case Version are moved to the Report level in the Configuration Print Report of PSR/ReSD, CTPR, and Seiyakukyo reports. The PSR/ReSD Report Configuration print is shown in the screen below:

4.2.2 Periodic Reports on DLP

A "global" revision/version in DLP is defined as the qualifying revision/version of case data that is selected as per current logic while running a Periodic report in DLP. Today, this revision/version is based on the Japanese aware dates for Japanese Periodic reports.

A "global cleanup" revision in DLP is defined as the qualifying data clean up revision of case data that is selected as per current logic while running a Periodic report in DLP with option "Next Completed Version".

Note that today this revision/version is based on the Japanese aware dates for Japanese Periodic reports.

When Japanese Periodic Reports (PSR/ReSD, CSPSR, and Seiyakukyo) are generated on DLP using "Last Completed Version", then reportable revision of the case is the last local lock revision that corresponds to the qualifying global revision before the report end date. If there is no local lock corresponding to the qualifying global revision, then the reportable revision of the case becomes the qualifying global revision.

If there is no globally locked version, then the reportable revision of the case is the last local revision that corresponds to the qualifying global revision before the report end date.

When Japanese Periodic Reports (PSR/ReSD, CSPSR, and Seiyakukyo) are generated on DLP using "Next Completed Version", then the system searches for case revision of the last local lock that corresponds to the qualifying global cleanup revision before report end date. If there is no local lock corresponding to the qualifying global revision, then the reportable revision of the case becomes the qualifying global revision.

If there is no globally locked clean-up version, then the reportable revision of the case is the last local revision that corresponds to the qualifying global clean-up revision or qualifying global version or revision, whichever is available, before the report end date.

4.2.3 Upgrade Considerations

In the upgraded database, the DLP Configuration radio buttons at Report level are set as per settings of the parameter at Form level (prior to upgrade) for the PSR/ReSD, CSPR, and Seiyakukyo reports.

4.2.4 Advanced Conditions in J Periodic Reports

  • The following changes are made to the Japanese Periodic reports when Advanced condition is used for filtering cases along with Use DLP Case version.

    • ACs are applied on DLP case data for all forms of PSR/ReSD, CSPR, and Seiyakukyo reports:

      If the PSR/ReSD has the Exclude events which don't meet the condition from the past data option checked, the ACs are applied as of the end date of the latest reporting period for the previous reporting period cases in the PSR: Forms 3-4 and ReSD: Forms 4-5.

      If the PSR/ReSD has the Exclude events which don't meet the condition from the past data option unchecked, the system fetches the past data as per the existing functionality (without applying AC).

  • On clicking the Print button in the PSR Configuration screen for generating Draft or Final PSR report:

    • The system displays the following message:

      Report submitted to Background Report Processing. Please view the status of the Report from Reports > Periodic Reports > Background Periodic Report Status screen.

Start Date for the reporting period has changed. Please update the End Date accordingly.When you enter the Start Date which is older than the latest End Date (previous row), the system displays the following error message:

Start Date must be same day, or after the latest end date.

By clicking OK, the wrong Start Date is removed.

Note: The J-DSUR contains the number of events from Submitted to the Japanese Agencies and non-reportable events within the Reporting Period.

End Date This field is a date entry field for the reporting timeframe ending period. It allows you to enter the ending date of each J-DSUR timeframe starting period. This is an editable field.When you enter the End Date which is earlier than the same timeframe's Start Date, the system displays the following error message:

End date must be after the Start Date

By clicking OK, the wrong end date is removed.

Note:

The J-DSUR contains the number of events from Submitted to the Japanese Agencies and non-reportable events within the Reporting Period.The System does not allow you to edit the previous reporting period and only allows to edit the current reporting period.

Add You can add editable row by clicking this button. You can add only 1 reporting timeframe which can remain in Editable state in a J-DSUR in single configuration. All the previous reporting timeframes are always in non-editable state.By default, in a freshly configured J-DSUR (non-submitted, non-copied), there is no timeframe row to begin with until you add one row using the Add button.Whenever the first timeframe row is added, the Start Date is auto-populated based on the Assigned Date.When you generate a J-DSUR, it is generated based on the last editable timeframe row.Once the report is marked with the Submitted status, all the timeframe rows are marked as Non-editable.If you do not have any editable timeframe row available in the J-DSUR, only then Add button is enabled. Else, it is always disabled.The Add button adds editable fields for Start and End date. Each row has a number that starts from 1 and is incremented for each timeframe.
Delete You can delete the editable row by clicking this button. The Delete button cannot delete the non-editable row. For removing previous non-editable rows, you can use the RESET button. This makes sure that you do not delete any timeframe rows which J-DSUR has already submitted. When this is selected, the following warning message is displayed to confirm the operation:

Would you like to delete the highlighted row?

Reset When this button is clicked, all the existing timeframe rows (editable as well as non-editable) are deleted. Else, the past Start and End date records are non-editable. When the Reset button is clicked, the following warning message is displayed:

By using Reset, all the past data will be removed. Do you want to proceed?

If you click OK, proceed with the reset.

If you select Cancel, leave the past data in the schedule table.When you make copy of a configuration, the Assigned Date, CSPSD, and CTPCSD are non editable unless the Reset button is used.

4.2.8.4 J-DSUR - Form 2

Summary: J-DSUR - Form 2 is the report of events that are serious (both Reported and Not Reported) during the specified investigational time period for Study drugs (including Study for partial change of the Marketed drugs).

  • The past record is included in the report as cumulative Total Number of SOC and Terms.

  • The number of the serious events which are either Reported or Not Reported to the PMDA within one investigational timeframe is the content for the report.

  • Regardless of Incomplete or Complete report, all the events during the investigational timeframe are listed.

  • If there are multiple events in one case, count each Reportable event separately. For example, if there are 2 same PTs available in the same case, the count is 1 SOC and 2 PTs.

  • A case is included in the report for the current timeframe only if a significant Japanese follow-up is received for the case in the same timeframe. If there are no significant updates for the case, this case is not counted for the current period.

  • If there are multiple follow-up updates (Significant or Non-significant) to a qualifying case in the same investigational time frame, count the events based on latest information on the events in the case and exclude the Deleted events during the timeframe. If the event is entered as Serious, but later in the same timeframe, this is changed as Non Serious, this event is not counted.

  • The MedDRA version is the latest MedDRA J version at the time of report creation.

  • The configured products that fall in DRUGCHARACTERIZATION = 1 (SUSPECTED) or 3 (INTERACTION) are collected. 2 (Concomitant) is not included.

  • The date cut off for the data inclusion is based on the case's Japan first information Aware Date (in PMDA > General tab of the Case Form). If this is a follow-up case, the Aware (latest significant follow-up) Date.

  • The Serious events must be Related events to be included in the list.

  • An event which is included in the past J-DSUR report is included in the Cumulative Total section of the count in the report.

  • For identifying the Japanese license, the license authorization country in the license configuration in Console is used. For the count of the foreign data, all configured products that have the same ingredients (regardless of the existence of Japanese license in this family) is considered as the target.

  • When the End Date is set as past date, any updates/new data that meet above condition in between the End Date and the current date are not included in this line listings. The data is the latest in the given timeframe, and not between the investigational timeframe Start Date and the Report Generation Date. This is achieved when you have enabled DLP and has configured the Use DLP Case Version radio option for J-DSUR configuration.

  • If there is 0 count on any counting numbering sections of the Line Listing, - is printed.

  • From 2nd and subsequent pages, the table header rows are repeated at the top of the each page.

Basic Data Retrieval Rule:

Cumulative Total:

  • In J-DSUR, the Cumulative Total is the count of Serious AEs that are collected between the Assigned Date and the end of the current investigation timeframe.

Investigation Time Frame

The Serious AEs from the cases collected in this investigation timeframe from among the cases retrieved by Cumulative Total.
