We are pleased to share the publication of our paper, “Consistency and clarity of pharmacogenomic guidance in UK medicine patient information leaflets: A cross-sectional analysis,” in the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology https://bpspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bcp.70521

The UK Industry PGx Regulatory Portal Product Discovery Report presents a comprehensive analysis and vision for a digital regulatory portal designed to streamline the compliance journey for pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing companies within the UK healthcare system. Developed through collaboration between JSOBrien Business Solutions Ltd and Blüm Health Ltd, and supported by the Centre of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation in Pharmacogenomics (CERSI-PGx), this white paper addresses the pressing need for a unified, authoritative platform to guide industry stakeholders through complex and fragmented regulatory requirements.
