Program oVErVIEWThe pharmaceutical industry is at an inflexion with momentous changes staring it in the face. In India too, issues with investment, research, and intellectual property indicate a new environment that has both implications and opportunity. The clinical research environment, in particular, has seen ground-shifting changes. New regulations have made the pursuit of clinical development in India extremely challenging. At the same time, demand for services in the regulation-free domains of remote data processing and IT-enabled offerings is growing at an unprecedented scale. A section of the Indian pharmaceutical industry is at the threshold of entry into uncharted territories with global development of innovative assets and biosimilars, even as it braces for headwinds from a struggling global economy and more demanding regulatory requirements. Scientific advances at the genetic and molecular level and enhanced public and non-profit funding are enabling new approaches to public health concerns.

This conference will provide a forum for academia, industry, regulators and researchers to come together to discuss the new environment for healthcare product development in India – the challenges and the opportunities. Participants will hear about how their peers are coping with new regulations and how they are planning to realize the promise of emerging opportunities.•Program hIghlIghts• Direction, outlook and vision for health related research in India• Review of recent changes in regulations and their implications• Challenges to global development and commercialization ex-India• New opportunities for India-centric global delivery solutions• Global benchmarks in healthcare research regulations• Patient-centric endeavors for awareness and ethics of research

In this session the speakers will review the clinical research environment and the recent changes that are transforming the conduct of clinical trials in India. The impact of these changes on patient protection, clinical trial quality, attractiveness as a destination, and clinical research volume will be analyzed.

India has emerged as a hot bed for the development of biosimilars. Speakers in this session will review the progress made by Indian companies in pursuing the biosimilars opportunity, their challenges, and the lessons that can be learned from studying how key regulatory agencies across the world have dealt with biosimilars development proposals.

Discover, how technology is enabling better business outcomes in the areas of Discovery, Pre-Clinical and early clinical development. Hear from Business Users of the technology on how better effectiveness has been achieved, versus better efficiency/product of the older technologies.

This session will review the work and philosophy behind the key elements of the new site accreditation system being introduced in India, the working of the compensation system that has been the topic of much policy deliberation in recent years, and the revamped regulatory apparatus expected to monitor the new system.

This session will focus on the patient in clinical trials. Speakers will discuss patient advocacy and approaches towards increasing awareness of clinical trials among the patient population. Means for enhancement of the informed consent process will be explored, including ways to improve the comprehensibility of the informed consent document, suggestions for audiovisual documentation of the consenting process, and means for assessment of comprehension of informed consent.

Probably the most happening place for innovation, investment and industrialization of technology in pharma value chain is clinical development. This session will exploit how new technological developments is taking the clinical development into next horizon, be it newer model for Trial Master File or Investigator collaboration or advances in technology for medical writing.

3A Evolving Pharmaceutical Regulations in the Region 3B India as an Innovation and

delivery Hub 3C Risk-based Monitoring

With the end of the war in Sri Lanka, and the rise of economic activity, there is cautious interest among Sri Lankan healthcare professionals and authorities for the country to participate in global clinical research, and new policy initiatives are on the anvil. In India too, a bill containing major revisions to the Drugs and Cosmetics Act has been introduced in parliament. This session will review the evolution of clinical research environment and regulations in Sri Lanka, and take a closer look at the changes likely to be introduced through upcoming amendments to the law in India.

More than 15 years since sections of the Indian pharmaceutical industry began to invest in drug discovery research, we have yet to see the first successful global commercialization of a product discovered in India. What are the challenges? Are we on the threshold now? What about global delivery opportunities in the clinical space? Speakers in this session will address these questions and share some of their success stories.

Risk-based monitoring is the most talked about concept in the entire value chain. Hear from industry and technology thought leaders on the actual benefits it brings to the table.

5AB1Recent developments inClinical Trials data Sharing 5AB2 5C Manufacturing, Supply Chain,

Regulatory, Safety and Risk Management

This session will trace the background and discuss the latest developments in regard to proposals that participant-level clinical trials data be widely shared with secondary researchers. Some industry sponsors of research (GSK, Roche) and industry trade associations (PhRMA, EFPIA) have issued their own voluntary guidelines and principles for sharing these data, while government agencies – primarily the European Medicines Agency (EMA) but also the FDA – have proposed requirements that sponsors share data. The session will explore the rationales off ered for these proposals and the risks to privacy and commercial interests, and will analyze the EMA proposals, which are to be fi nalized in November 2013. The session will feature the new practices and principles of one industry sponsor (GSK) in this area.

Participation in clinical trials carries risk of injury, which can be caused by poor design of a study by an industry sponsor or academic institution, poor conduct of a trial by researchers, poor clinical care that is required by clinical trial protocol but that is delivered by non-researcher physicians, and failure of research participants to follow study protocol. There has been much international debate, and national debate, as within India, about appropriate standards for when compensation should be awarded, how to calculate that compensation, when warranted, and who should be responsible for compensation. This session will seek to advance the discussions within India by putting these issues in a trans-national context, relating experiences from other jurisdictions, specialty societies, and research ethics groups.

With ever-changing regulations and the pressure for an effi cient supply chain, various pharma companies are experimenting with a variety of strategies to reduce cost and ensure compliance. Technology vendors are often taking the lead in assisting pharma companies to be prepared for the dynamic environment. This session will discuss such proven strategies and probable models of innovation.

Ethics committees are the keystone of research ethics. This session will review the registration requirements introduced earlier in the year. The proposed accreditation requirements for ethics committees will be discussed, and the audience will get a peek at how ethics committees are managing to cope with the new systems.

Clinical and Regulatory experts will outline steps to consider during protocol development and share their insights to enhance risk based monitoring initiatives. They will discuss examples of how a well-designed protocol can prevent errors in collection of data and enhance the reliability of the study.

This session will exploit the new, proven models and trends in sales and marketing (backed by technology) for better commercial success, including competitive positioning.
