Presentation and Discussion from the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) E14/S7B Implementation Working Group on the Recently Released Draft Q&As to ICH E14 and S7B

ABOUT

This webinar will be presented by multiple regulatory and industry members from the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) E14/S7B Implementation Working Group on the Clinical and Nonclinical Evaluation of QT/QTc Interval Prolongation and Proarrhythmic Potential. This working group developed new Questions & Answers (Q&As) to ICH E14 and S7B, which were released by ICH as a Draft Guideline for public consultation on August 27, 2020.

The webinar will cover the background, motivation for, and overview of the new Q&As for ICH E14/S7B, followed by presentations on each of the main Q&A topics. Example cases will be presented that highlight the potential impact of applying the principles in the new Q&As on drug development and regulatory evaluation.

The new Q&As describe how nonclinical assays can be used as a part of an integrated risk assessment prior to first-in-human studies as they are used today, and in later stages of clinical development as a part of a combined nonclinical-clinical integrated risk assessment. If implemented, they can lead to a reduction in the number of ‘Thorough QT’ clinical studies and improved decision making at the time of a marketing application.

Questions can be submitted via the Q&A pod during the webinar. Submitted questions will be discussed at the end of each of the two sessions by members of the E14/S7B working group.

INTENDED AUDIENCE

  • Drug development professionals and stakeholders with an interest in understanding the potential impact of the draft Q&As
