Use Cases

Explore how AI agents transform key processes across maturity levels.

Automated Case Intake

AI extracts AE data from structured and unstructured sources.

Faster case intake, reduced manual data entry.

AI-Assisted Narrative Generation

AI supports triage, routing, and narrative preparation.

Reduced processing time, improved throughput.

Signal Detection Enhancement

AI augments traditional methods with pattern recognition.

Earlier detection of safety signals.

Expedited Reporting Intelligence

AI tracks timelines, readiness, documentation.

Fewer late submissions, improved compliance.

Third-Party & Partner PV Oversight

AI monitors partner compliance, case reconciliation.

Reduced oversight effort, improved accountability.

Deep Dive

AI-Assisted Case Processing & Narrative Generation

The target end state is an AI-assisted, medically governed case processing capability that increases throughput while preserving human judgment.

Data Inputs

  • Safety database (ICSR records, metadata, status)
  • Source documents: CIOMS forms, literature, emails, transcripts
  • Controlled vocabularies: MedDRA, WHO-DD
  • Reporting rules: country-specific timelines and criteria
  • Historical cases: prior narratives, decisions, outcomes
  • Partner data: inbound cases from CROs or affiliates

Governance

  • Case processors review and refine AI-generated content
  • Medical reviewers approve seriousness, causality, narratives
  • AI suggestions are transparent and editable
  • All edits, approvals, decisions logged for inspection
  • Hallucination mitigation: source-grounded generation
  • Prompt governance: controlled templates, prohibited content
