1 IDMP:WhatisitandWhy?IDMP stands for the Identification of Medicinal Products and is a general term used whenreferencingthecollectionofISOdatastandards–ISO11615,ISO11616,ISO11238,ISO11239and ISO11240 – that arebeing refined and implementedby regulatory bodies in support ofimprovingpharmacovigilancevia the soon-to-bemandatory submissionof thisdata tohealthauthorities.
IncomparisontoxEVMPD(ExtendedEudraVigilanceMedicinalProductDictionary),thecurrentlegislativeformat,IDMPissubstantiallymoredetailedandcomplex. By standardizing the structure and
terminology used to describe healthcareproductsacrossallmarketsandallmarketingauthorizationholders(MAH),theimpactonhealth care delivery and patient safety hasgreatpotential:
• Improved safety analytics across abroaderspectrumofinformation
• Globally identifiable productinformation
• Complete product compositioninformation
• Enablement of information sharingbetweenstakeholders

3 TheIndustryChallenge–OrganizationalReadinessforIDMPThe basic fact is simple: IDMP will becomemandatory for everyMarketing Authorization Holder(MAH). It isalso true that IDMPwill require thecuration,managementandsubmissionofamuchwider collection of data when compared to xEVMPD – for example, information such as clinicalparticulars, medicinal products, manufacturers, marketing authorizations, packaged medicinalproductsandpharmaceuticalproducts.Itisalsoverylikelythattherequireddataforthesecategorieswillcomefromseveraldifferentdatasources.Oneprimarysourcewilltypicallybecompanyinternalsystemssuchasspreadsheetscombinedwithdata in internal regulatory informationmanagement(RIM)systemsandotherinternalsourcessuchastheERP(EnterpriseResourcePlanning)system.This internaldatawillneed tobecombined,harmonizedand synchronizedwithdata fromofficialdatabases such as Global Substance Registration System (G-SRS1) previously known as GlobalIngredientArchivalSystem(GinAS)forsubstancerelateddata,theUnifiedCodeforUnitsofMeasure(UCUM)forstrengthdefinitionsandthePharmaceuticaldoseforms,unitsofpresentationandroutesofadministration(EDQM).AtCunesoftwehaveanalyzedofallrequireddatafieldsdefinedwithintheISOguidelinesandofferthefollowingresults:

4 BestPracticesforIDMPreadiness
4.1 GeneralProcessSteps–Howtoeatanelephant?With IDMP, there are andwill be significant challenges to face and overcome. Yet, aswith everyjourney,thefirststepsneedtobetaken.Or,inotherwords,answeringthequestion“Howtoeatanelephant?Theanswer?Onebiteatthetime!IDMPreadinesscanandshouldbetreatedasaformalprojectinvolvingprocessstepsthatlogicallybuilduponeachother.TherecommendedbestpracticesprojectstepsforIDMPareoutlinedbelow:

ii. Paper5. Collectsampledatainordertodeterminethelevelofdifficulty(i.e.collectdatafromanERP
systemoranexternalbusinesspartner).Cunesoft offers a structured Excel-based data analysis tool to its clients. The tool contains astructuredlistofallrelevantISOIDMPdatafields,mappedwiththeavailableIDMPimplementationguidelines.In the IRISS Forum’s 2016 Industry Survey on IDMP3, over 80% of the respondents are currentlyconductingagapanalysisoftheirinformationassets.Byconductingthedatasourceanalysis,youwillbeabletounderstandyourinformationlandscapeandtoidentifyyourhighestriskareasforgapsandcomplexities.

TheIRISSForumsurveyalsolookedintotheintendedtechnicalapproachforprovisionofIDMPdataandfoundthat69%ofrespondentsintendtosubmittheinformationviathegateway:
4.4.1 MiningyourIDMPdatafromexistingsourcesThe reality is that IDMP can be collected and enteredmanually. However, the reasons for usingtechnology to gather andmaintain IDMP are driven by initial and ongoing operational costs. Thepotential costs for manual data maintenance of hundreds of data fields per European marketauthorization can be significantly higher when compared to using usable and efficient softwaredesignedspecificallyforIDMPsubmissioncompilationandmaintenance.IntermsoftheinitialcurationofthedataneededforpopulatingIDMPinformation,recenttechnologyinnovationshavemadetheconceptofdocumentdataminingareality.WithasubstantialpercentageoftheIteration1datacurrentlylivingindocumentssuchasanSmPC,anopportunitypresentsitself

4.4.2 IDMPdatamappingwithcodingsystemsOne of the new challenges with IDMP are coding requirements and controlled vocabularies. Asdescribed in a previous section, external databaseswill need to be used tomap IDMP datawithmultiplestandardcodingsystems.Lookingatiteration1,forexample,clinicalparticularssuchasindicationshavetobeextractedfromtheSMPCandalsoneedtobereferencedwiththecorrespondingMedDRAcodes,lowleveltermsandSOCclassifications.ActivesubstancesandExcipientsusedinmarketedproductsneedtobemappedwithG-SRScodes.Additionally,otherstandard terminologiessuchasDosageForms,OrganizationsandRoutesofAdministration(tonameafew)willhavetobecodedviayettobereleasedreferentialandorganizationdatabasesbytheEMA.
4.4.3 IDMPdatastagingandcuratingFollowing curation of the initial data, companies looking to utilize a technology solution considermanagementplatformsthatalignwiththeIDMPdatamodelandcanproducecompliantIDMPdatafilesforsubmission.UnstructuredIDMPdata,preparedasdescribedinthesectiondatamininganddatamapping,willberequiredtobematchedandstagedwithotherstructureddata,comingfromRIM,MDM,ERPorothersystems.Cunesoftofferscune-IDMP–amoduleinitsRegulatoryOperationsPlatform–withagrowingnumberofcompaniesacrossEuropeutilizingthesoftwaretogatherandmanagetheirIDMPdata.Innearlyallcases,thesecompanieshaveachievedanROIinlessthan6months.

5 IDMPsolvedviaRegulatoryMasterDataManagement
5.1 SingleSourceofTruthMasterDataManagement(MDM)approachesarebeingusedinmanyorganizationstocreateasinglesourceoftruthforrelateddata.Forexample,themanufacturingdivisionusesanEnterpriseResourceManagement (ERP) system,which contains production-relatedmaster data. Finance typically usesanotherinstanceormoduleoftheERPsystemorhasitsownfinancemasterdatasystem.SalesusesaCustomerRelationshipManagementSystem(CRM),whichconsolidatesallcustomerrelateddatainonesystemforsalesandmarketing.Insomecase,theCRMsystemmaybeconnectedandintegratedintotheERPsystem.Withinlifesciencesorganizations,RegulatoryAffairshassignificantstrategicimportance.However,inmost cases, no regulatory master data management systems are available or implemented.Unfortunately, in many companies, we have observed an Excel sheet-based regulatory datamanagementapproach.RegulatoryInformationManagementSystem(RIMS)havebeenthefirstattempttomanagebroaderregulatorydatawithinasinglesystem.Insomecases,theexistingRIMSenvironmentcanbethebaseformanagingIDMP-relateddata,butwouldneedtobecustomizedsignificantlytoalsobecomethesinglesourceoftruth.Thegraphicbelowdescribesthehighlevelconceptforaregulatorymasterdatamanagement.Why is a single source of truth important? Let’s look at a very simple example and its compleximplications-Ibuprofen5mg:Thesubstanceitselfwouldbedescribedinthesubmissiondossier.TheIDMPrelevantsubstancecodewouldneedtobeextractedviaG-SRSandthestrengthterminologywouldcomefromUCUM.WithinanIDMPsystem,youwillneedtoconsolidatethesedifferentdatasetsandcombinethemtoonecompounddataset,theIDMPdataset.Conductingthisdatacollectionmanuallyjustforasinglemedicinalproductcanbetimeconsuming.Now,let’sexploreaveryrealisticscenarioofadatachangethatishappeninginoneoftheinternalsourcesystems:If,forexample,G-SRSisapplyingachangebutthereisnonotificationinplacethattellsyoutoalsoupdateyourIDMPcompounddatasetintheIDMPsystem,theabilitytokeepeverythingsynchronizedandharmonizedbecomesnearlyimpossible.
