Further details about the 17th International Conference on Pharmaceutical Medicine (ICPM 2014) have been unveiled.
The congress is jointly organized by the International Federation of Associations of Pharmaceutical Physicians & Pharmaceutical Medicine (IFAPP) and the German Society of Pharmaceutical Medicine (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Pharmazeutische Medizin e.V.’ – DGPharMed).
“Drug development aiming for true innovations has become even more challenging in the past decade. The investments needed further increased, hurdles for approval and reimbursement became more demanding. In a globalized environment all economic regions are directly competing for R&D leadership in drug development,” noted the organizers, adding that the Berlin meeting will focus on the major framework conditions in that field.
The motto of the event is “The World Is Our Partner”. Beyond assessment of the status quo, the presentations will provide participants with an outlook on what it will take to stay on top of drug development. Experts will address the key topics relevant for smart development of better drugs, and there will also be exchange and networking with peers to discuss presentations and new topics.

In this video interview, Claire Riches, VP of clinical solutions at Citeline, explains how AI is shifting trial risk management from reactive to proactive—enabling sponsors to pressure-test protocols and anticipate pivots before a single patient is enrolled.
In today's ACT Brief, we examine AI's role as trial design advisor with human leadership, how to govern autonomous agents in regulated operations, and real-world outcomes from switching to oral weight-loss therapy.
AI agents in clinical operations acquire broader autonomous capability through expanded permissions, tools, memory, and delegated authority, requiring governance focused on whether effective capability has shifted outside approved boundaries rather than whether software has changed.
In this video interview, Claire Riches, VP of clinical solutions at Citeline, makes the case for AI as a sophisticated strategic advisor in trial design while arguing that humans must remain in the lead—especially when factors the model can't fully account for are at stake.
In today's ACT Brief, we examine how data drives honest enrollment assumptions, why RWE infrastructure lags ambition, and the disconnect between FDA rulemaking and enforcement on compounded therapies.
RWE is finding a role earlier in drug development than ever before, but the data quality, integration, and organizational alignment required to make it regulatory-grade are still catching up to the ambition.
In this video interview, Claire Riches, VP of clinical solutions at Citeline, explains why combining analog trial performance data with real-world patient data and site-level recruitment history gives sponsors a far more honest picture of whether their enrollment assumptions are actually achievable.
