Pharmacovigilance Documentation Automation with Quark | Quark

Pharmacovigilance teams operate under high stakes – accuracy, compliance, and speed aren’t optional. But fragmented systems, manual workflows, and regulatory deadlines make every safety report a struggle. Quark makes it simpler.

Quark Publishing Platform (QPP) is a cloud-based, AI-powered component content management system (CCMS) purpose-built for life sciences. Designed to meet GxP compliance requirements, QPP gives PV teams full control over structured content creation in a secure, validated environment.

Use familiar tools like Microsoft Word with built-in automation and integrations to your data sources. Centralize, streamline, and accelerate the creation of essential safety documents — from PSMFs and PSURs to RMPs, DSURs, and more.

You’re Not Alone in These Challenges

“We spend more time chasing emails and aligning versions than analyzing the actual safety data.”

“Manual formatting in Word and Excel costs us hours per report, and still leads to QA issues.”

Top Use Cases Quark Automates

Pharmacovigilance System Master File (PSMFs)

Pharmacovigilance System Master File (PSMFs)

PSMFs are among the most complex to automate. These documents require annual audits and must reflect all organizational activities related to pv compliance. Specifically, Section 16, which covers safety updates, is particularly difficult due to frequent updates required (annually or semi-annually) and the depth of tracking needed across global systems.

Periodic Safety Update Reports (PSURs)

Periodic Safety Update Reports (PSURs)

These documents focus primarily on safety data, and involve extensive data retrieval and formatting. Whilst some aspects can be standardized, it’s not so straightforward when it requires medical judgement and narratives from a human, making the degree of compliance a concern.

Development Safety Update Reports (DSURs)

Development Safety Update Reports (DSURs)

DSURs are primarily used during clinical development phase and can be complex due to data pulled from different sources. Subsequently, cross-functional collaboration becomes time-consuming and tedious.

Periodic Adverse Drug Experience Reports (PADERs)

Periodic Adverse Drug Experience Reports (PADERs)

These documents are created for post-marketing adverse events. They are fairly complex to manage due to narrative summarizations and regulatory context still requiring oversight.

Periodic Benefit-Risk Evaluation Reports

Periodic Benefit-Risk Evaluation Reports (PBRERs)

PBRERs are comprehensive documents that must rely heavily on correct data pulled from various sources, formatting, analysis, interpretation, and strategic recommendations sections. The volume and diversity of data, including real-world evidence, make automation extremely difficult.

Risk Management Plans

Risk Management Plans (RMPs)

RMPs outline a product’s risk profile, mitigation strategies, and post-market commitments. Automation becomes challenging when considering strategic planning which is highly contextual.
