The role of the TGA
• ensure timely access to therapeutic goods that are of high quality, and are safe and effective for their purpose
• ensure the risks associatedwith medicines & devices are minimised and manageable

How the TGA regulates
• relies on the scientific and medical expertise of its highly skilled workforce
• TGA evaluation is based on a risk-benefit analysis – no product is completely free of risk but the benefit should be greater than the possible side-effects
• Expert Advisory Committees – provide independent advice

Current trend
•Increasing speed and penetration of reporting to regulatory agencies
but
•still some reliance on publishing to capture anecdotal reporting

Early signals: what are we looking for?
Association; not necessarily causality
Remember that symptoms:
•describe effect, not cause
•may be confounded in the individual patient
•may be loosely reported
•range in severity

Two key search concepts
•Physiological system: •broad e.g cardiovascular, CNS•narrow e.g. ocular, renal
•Class of medicine: •e.g. Cox-2 inhibitors, Glitazones

Formatted databases
•Allow slicing and dicing different ways to control searching
•Allow recording of complex search history
•Allow discrimination in results
