Bioanalysis. 2019 Jun;11(13):1227-1231. doi: 10.4155/bio-2019-0139.

Abstract

In this conference report, we summarize the main findings and messages from a workshop on 'Data Integrity'. The workshop was held at the 11th European Bioanalysis Forum Open (EBF) Symposium in Barcelona (21-23 November 2018), in collaboration with the Medicines and Health products Regulatory Agency to provide insight and understanding of regulatory data integrity expectations. The workshop highlighted the importance of engaging with software developers to address the gap between industry's data integrity needs and current system software capabilities. Delegates were also made aware of the importance of implementing additional procedural controls to mitigate the risk associated with using systems that do not fully meet data integrity requirements.

Keywords: EBF; audit trail; data integrity; data transfers.
