SPL Beyond CDER: Lessons Learned from the Pharma Experience
Speaker: Don BridgesTime: 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM Date: June 24
Track: Pharmaceuticals
Experience level: All levels
The Structured Product Labeling (SPL) era is drawing closer as FDA prepares to require SPL for divisions beyond CDER. SPL is a format for Labeling based on XML that allows better (more complete) and faster communication of the content of labeling to FDA, NLM, and consumers. Just as Pharma was grasping for solutions three years ago (before the October 2005 mandate for SPL), OTC, Veterinary, Devices, Biologics, etc. are asking the same questions now that the mandate is on the horizon. Hoping to leverage past pharma experience, this panel discussion is a unique opportunity to learn the basics of preparing an Structured Product Labeling (SPL) strategy and answering the basic question of “what do I need to know about SPL”.
Each sponsor will cover:
- Company background/situation
- SPL approach decision
- hat you wished you had known before the SPL era that you didn’t know
Then it’s the attendees turn to ask questions.
