Participant Profile
This workshop is for medical writers at different stages of their career. There is no prerequisite for participation but a basic knowledge of clinical trial documents is expected.Objectives
The EU Clinical Trial Regulation (CTR) and the EMA Policy 0070 require public disclosure of clinical trial (CT) documents. The EU General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) requires that personal data in these documents be protected. Though divergent at first glance, these new sets of requirements are actually aligned to benefit patients. As medical writers, we need to find the right balance between disclosure and data protection while maintaining the scientific utility of the documents we write. The objective of this workshop is to help medical writers deal with different CT documents impacted by requirements for transparency and public disclosure and the GDPR. The participant will gain knowledge in identifying critical patient data and the “risk areas” of a CT document or project, and in mitigating risks to confidentiality and compliance.Content
The workshop will cover:· a short introduction to CT transparency and disclosure, the key regulations (i.e., EU CTR, EMA Policy 0070, GDPR), and definitions of key terms
· benefits, challenges, and risks of public disclosure
· CT documents impacted, with focus on the study protocol and the clinical study report
· personal data pseudonymisation (“redaction-friendly”) techniques at the document level
· working with other functional groups to ensure patient data protection in CT documents
· real life examples
· hands on exercises

Participant Profile
This workshop will be useful for anyone who wants to make their writing more effective. It will be particularly useful for those who have come into medical writing without receiving any training in writing skills.Objectives
The objective of the course is to help participants write clear, professional text that communicates effectively with their target audience. We will focus on writing for STM (scientific/technical/medical) audiences and for patients and the general public, but the skills taught are applicable to all types of written communication.Content
If we do not persuade our audience to start and then continue reading, our effort as writers is wasted. It is also wasted if readers fail to understand the intended message, or if we lose credibility through poor presentation. The workshop looks at the principles of effective writing, and how to use them to achieve your communication goals. Topics covered include:• Structure and style: the do’s and dont’s of effective writing
• Achieving clarity without ‘dumbing down’
• Common style traps in STM writing
• Writing for patients and the public
• Writing to persuade: make your writing powerful
• Say it concisely: tips for reducing word count
The course contains interactive class exercises, and learning points are illustrated using real examples of good and bad medical writing.

Participant Profile
The Investigational Medicinal Product Dossier (IMPD) is an important part of the clinical trial application (CTA) which is submitted to the EMA for approval of clinical trials of investigational medicinal products (IMPs) in the EU. Those who stand to benefit from this workshop are regulatory personnel and medical writers in the pharmaceutical industry, CROs, and medical writing agencies who are involved in preparing regulatory documentation – especially documents pertaining to the chemistry, manufacturing, and quality control (CMC) of IMPs.Participants of this workshop will be expected to have experience/knowledge of the drug development and approval process, especially in the US and the EU as well as familiarity with various components of the eCTD.
Objectives
Participants of this workshop will get an overview on the individual parts of the IMPD, as well as details of the relevant source documents and submission requirements and the medical writer’s role in the preparation of the dossier. Additionally, the workshop aims to inform participants on Blockchain technologies, implemented in Supply-Chain-Management, in clinical trials.Content
The IMPD includes summaries of information related to the quality, manufacture and control of the IMP, data from non-clinical studies and from its clinical use. An overall risk-benefit assessment, critical analyses of the non-clinical and clinical data in relation to the potential risks and benefits of the proposed study also have to be part of the IMPD.The main focus of the workshop will be to clarify the medical writer’s role in the selection, assembly, and summary of relevant source documents for drafting a full or simplified IMPD for medicinal drug products, with a strong emphasis on the chemistry, manufacturing, and quality control (CMC) components of these. Furthermore, the workshop aims to educate participants on recent Supply-Chain-Management developments in clinical trials, with focus on Blockchain technologies, required for the IMPD assembly.
The workshop is planned to be interactive and will include discussion of participants’ questions submitted in their pre-workshop assignments, where relevant. There will also be a handful of exercises carried out during the workshop to encourage overall participation.

Participant Profile
As professional medical writers should be reporting guideline champions, this workshop is propaedeutic for any workshops on scientific journals or congresses publishing.Objectives
The growing availability of guidelines and checklists makes identification and use of the most appropriate guideline for any specific disclosure more difficult. This workshop will help the writer to identify what is available and understand how to choose and use the most appropriate guidelines for their purpose.Content
The Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) statement, issued in 2001, was the first example of a comprehensive and structured guideline on how to communicate the results of randomised clinical trials. In addition, different guidelines and checklists to use for the results of observational, health outcome, quality of life, mixed-method, and many other types of studies have been published. To complement all of these, pharmaceutical companies have developed Good Publication Practice, individual editors have developed their own guidelines, and most journals have their own instructions for authors. In this workshop, we will review the main guidelines to identify when and how they can be used by medical writers to improve the productivity and quality of their job.Pre-Workshop Assignment Length: 1:00hrs

Participant Profile
This workshop is for medical writers who want to engage in the writing of lay summaries of study results as mandated by the EU regulation. Participants should already have an understanding of CSR structure (ICH E3) and should know the basics of clinical research (trial design, efficacy and safety analysis, basic statistics).Objectives
Writing lay summaries is a difficult and challenging task. Medical writers with an interest in lay writing are well suited for this new and upcoming activity. However, the provision of lay summaries requires a lot more than good lay language writing. The workshop will introduce the many different aspects of providing lay summaries: the available regulatory guidance, the positions of various stake holders (pharma and patient organisations), the intricacies of the actual writing of lay summaries, and considerations for appropriate distribution of the lay summaries.Content
The workshop will introduce the requirements for lay language summaries of study results according to the EU regulation. The various guidance documents from stakeholders (TransCelerate, MRCT, European Expert Group) will be introduced and briefly discussed. The content requirements for lay summary will be presented and possible solutions will be presented for discussion. As lay language writing is difficult, only the basic principles of plain language writing will be covered. To learn about the complexity of lay language writing in a confined context, the workshop will have a practical exercise, as participants will be asked to write a short paragraph of a lay summary. In addition, methods for patient involvement into the writing and review of lay summaries will be introduced and the various distribution options for lay summaries as well as the issue of translations will be discussed.Pre-Workshop Assignment Length: 2:30hrs
Post-Workshop Assignment Length: 3:00hrs
Participant Profile
This workshop is intended for medical writers (and others) who are interested in clinical trials and would like to know more about the evolution of ethical principles associated with human subject participation.
