Drug Evaluation Committee Education and Training Materials for E2B(R3) Explanation

Electronic Information Subcommittee

April 2024

In Japan, reporting by ICH E2B(R3) to the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency has become mandatory as of April 1, 2019. For smooth handling of adverse drug reaction reports, the Committee on Drug Evaluation of the Japan Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association (JPMA) has published the "Guidance for Electronic Reporting of Adverse Reactions and Infectious Drug Reactions" (latest edition*: issued in September 2022). In actual training, I am sure that the training materials are prepared in accordance with the experience and knowledge of the target audience. To help pharmaceutical companies implement education and training more efficiently and appropriately, and to reduce the burden on education and training staff in charge of creating training materials, the Electronic Information System Subcommittee TF2-1 has created the Education and Training Materials.

    Items related to side effects of control drugs and concomitant drugs used in addition to the study drug have been added in accordance with the revision of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law enforced in September 2020. Details of the updated contents are listed on the last page of each material.
