Who Should Attend
This training course will be conducted in English.
This online training course is designed for professionals involved in risk minimisation activities at a pharmaceutical MAH within the EU and/or globally. It is particularly relevant for colleagues working in pharmacovigilance, drug safety, risk management and regulatory affairs. Participants should already have experience in risk management.
Objective of the Event
This compact online seminar provides a comprehensive overview of modern risk minimisation in the context of patient safety and pharmacovigilance. You will gain a solid understanding of the practical application of the current regulatory framework, defined in:
- GVP Module XVI - Risk minimisation measures (Rev 3) (06/08/2024),
- GVP Module XVI Addendum I - Risk minimisation measures for medicinal products with embryo-fetal risks (29/08/2025), and
- GVP Module XVI Addendum II - Methods for evaluating effectiveness of risk minimisation measures (06/08/2024).
The course offers a refresher on RMM and a detailed deep dive into aRMM, with a particular focus on the updates released in 2024 and 2025. Key elements include effectiveness evaluation, user testing and pregnancy-prevention programmes. The seminar combines clear regulatory guidance with practical insights, enabling attendees to strengthen their skills in planning, managing and monitoring aRMM within their organisations.
Your Benefit
After attending, you will:
- Understand the structure, purpose and regulatory basis of routine and additional RMM.
- Be able to plan and implement aRMMs in alignment with GVP Module XVI (Rev 3) and Addendum I.
- Know how to design materials, engage stakeholders and document relevant steps.
- Apply research methods confidently to evaluate user understanding and RMM effectiveness according to GVP Module XVI and Addendum I and II.
- Recognise regulatory expectations and typical findings.
- Contribute effectively to global risk management strategies within your organisation.
