Let's talk about what you're looking for.
Your expert partner for efficient, effective risk management design and implementation
Regardless of the terms used, designing and implementing REMS or aRMMs to address the benefit-risk profile is a complex topic and requires skilled experts to help ensure controls are balanced, effective and appropriate.
Syneos Health is here to help and has the experience, solutions and capabilities to address the global risk management challenges you may have.
For example:
- Do you have an asset in clinical development that may require risk management controls?
- Are you planning on including risk management activities as part of your marketing application?
- Have the regulators indicated that you may need a REMS or aRMMs program to obtain marketing approval?
- Are you currently operating a REMS or aRMM program and are looking to transition away from your current vendors?
- Are you considering migrating your brand risk management system to a multi-sponsor shared program?
Our Global Risk Management Solutions team is dedicated to helping sponsors plan, implement and assess measures to positively impact the risk-benefit balance of medicinal products.
Syneos Health has one of the largest pharmacovigilance (PV) and GRM teams in the industry. Our broad experience will help ensure you are supported across all therapeutic areas and stages of development.
Patient SMS Consent and Enrollment
How patients opt in to SMS communications for REMS program support
For REMS programs administered by Syneos Health, patients may choose to receive SMS communications related to program support through a paper enrollment process completed with their healthcare provider.
The enrollment form includes a separate, clearly labeled Text Message Consent (Optional) section. This consent is not pre-selected and is not required as a condition of program participation. Patients must actively indicate consent and sign the enrollment form before any SMS communications are sent.
The consent language explains that message frequency varies, message and data rates may apply, and that patients can reply STOP to opt out or HELP for assistance at any time.
After the enrollment form is received and processed, patients receive a confirmation text message asking them to reply YES to confirm their mobile number before ongoing SMS communications begin.
