Author: Dr Henriette Wolf-Klein, FORUM Institut für Management GmbH

An online Pharma FORUM episode with Dr Peter Bachmann took place on 19 November 2024. The focus was on the EU pharmaceutical legislation, but ePI and variation regulation were also addressed during the programme – a regulatory sweep, so to speak.

At the conclusion of the programme, Dr Bachmann highlighted the upcoming changes to variations from 1 January 2025. Type IA variations will only be submitted as a grouping in the Annual Update (with a few exceptions). Worksharing will also become mandatory.
