Event Overview:

Systems used to support clinical development have been, and still are, heavily impacted by FDA CFR 21 Part 11, ICH GCP E6 (R2) and the EMA. But are these regulations and their interpretations evolving with the changing landscape of SaaS solutions? And, as more clinical development systems are deployed via SaaS, how do the hundreds of thousands of global users, all accessing the same version of the same software, change the validation journey? Multiple software version releases each year, when held to the historical standards for Computer Systems Validation (CSV), may put the industry on a trajectory for staggering increases in the costs associated with validating a software solution.

Join IQVIA Technologies as we explore how the industry can adapt to this changing reality.


Three key take-aways

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • The history of Computer Systems Validation (CSV): How did we get here?
  • Current approaches to SaaS validation and managing the related costs and efforts: What’s working and what’s not?
  • A future prediction: How can we take action now to effectively manage validation in the future?
