Podcast 1 - Product Safety Compliance

While pharmacovigilance has a well defined place and process in the risk management pantheon, the public focus on drug safety has extended the risk management impacts to a broader set of concerns. This podcast discusses aspects of Corporate Compliance that should be evaluated in any program to improve product & patient safety compliance, such as:

• SEC investigations about adequate disclosure of risks
• "Corporate Social Responsibility" programs and media reports
• Corporate safety reputation with key clinicians
• Litigation risk management, electronic discovery and the potential for scientific misconduct
