Empirica Signal joins the Empirica Trace product as the newest component of Phase Forward’s Empirica suite of pharmacovigilance and risk management products, which are developed by the company’s Lincoln Safety Group.
According to the company, Empirica Signal is a state-of-the-art data mining and knowledge management tool. It provides detection and quantification of safety signals through the use of advanced data mining techniques that can be applied to any spontaneous reporting database.
Important features of this new release include a customizable, easy-to-use portal interface that provides a graphical ‘at-a-glance’ drug profile overview of products of interest, putting critical information at the fingertips of safety professionals, said the company.
Empirica Signal also includes enhanced workflow and a revised general topic-tracking facility to document and track safety-related issues identified anywhere in the safety review process. The new release is expected to be available in July 2008.
