As Structured Product Labeling (SPL) continues to evolve and become adopted throughout the FDA, organizations must ensure their original approach to SPL compliance is the best strategic fit for the enterprise. Initially, the goal for most organizations was focused solely on implementing systems and/or processes to achieve SPL compliance. Depending on your approach, SPL compliance can either result in additional time and cost to the overall submission process, or provide long-term value across the enterprise.

With additional XML-based standards under development, and the ability for structured content to drive efficiencies throughout an enterprise, it is prudent to review your overall approach to structured content authoring and publishing. This presentation will look at how XML can be used to manage content for SPL submissions to the FDA, Product Information Management (PIM) submissions to EMEA, as well as other uses such as standard response letters for customer contact centers.

This audio conference will cover:

  • SPL results to date for human prescription drugs
  • Expansion of SPL to devices, vaccines and veterinary products
  • Leveraging SPL content for other labeling-related outputs
  • How PIM differs from SPL
  • Implementing an effective, efficient translation process
  • The business case for using XML for standard response letters
