GM Pharma Case Study: How They Cut Screening Time by 88% with DrugCard

Buried in Data, Facing Compliance Risks

Before adopting DrugCard, GM Pharma’s pharmacovigilance team was overwhelmed by unmanageable workloads and compliance pressures. Within just six months, their operations faced:

• Over 123,000 articles requiring review – a manual process that took ~25 minutes per article.
• Limited capacity to detect safety-relevant articles across multiple languages and regional sources.
• Escalating compliance risks due to inconsistent monitoring across local and global markets.
• A growing need to maintain audit-ready traceability across 9 countries and 630 products.

Therefore, manual screening turned into a bottleneck, putting both team efficiency and regulatory confidence at risk.

Automated, AI-Powered Monitoring with DrugCard

To transform their pharmacovigilance workflow, GM Pharma implemented DrugCard’s AI-driven literature monitoring solution, which automated the end-to-end review process.

• Automate categorisation of global and local literature (PubMed + regional sources).
• Apply AI-based PV relevance detection to filter non-relevant publications instantly.
• Detect ICSRs using DrugCard’s integrated adverse reaction database.
• Generate quality control reports to maintain full audit readiness.
• Finally, use DrugCard Simple Search for rapid, ad-hoc data queries and actionable insights.

As a result, a streamlined, scalable monitoring process was achieved – turning hours of manual work into seconds of intelligent automation.

Unprecedented Efficiency and Bulletproof Compliance

Within months of deployment, GM Pharma’s team experienced transformational results:

• 88% reduction in article review time – from ~25 minutes to ~3 minutes per article.
• 123,693 articles reviewed efficiently across 9 countries.
• 630 products managed within one unified platform.
• 16 safety-related articles identified and 3 reportable cases detected.
• Thousands of hours saved, enabling a lean PV team to handle complex global workloads.
• Zero compliance issues during internal quality reviews.

DrugCard empowered GM Pharma to turn an overwhelming literature burden into a structured, scalable, and globally consistent PV process.
