PRO EURO DILI NET

ASSESSMENT OF DRUG-INDUCED LIVER INJURY: KEY RULES AND COMMON PITFALLS. HOW TO MAKE A CLINICAL NARRATIVE

 

We are currently working in order to achieve ERT (Eurotox) recognition for the course.

Date: 15 March 2019

Time: 08.30h to 19.00h

Venue:  Aula Magna, School of Medicine, Blvd L Pasteur 32, 29071. Málaga, Spain

Overview

Idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is an acute adverse hepatic reaction that occurs in only a small proportion of individuals exposed to a drug, it is unexpected from the known pharmacological action of the agent, leading to illness, disability, hospitalization, including life threatening liver failure and death or need for liver transplantation. DILI represents a major challenge for clinicians, the pharmaceutical industry and regulatory agencies worldwide as it stands as one of the main causes of drug attrition during development and the adoption of regulatory measures to improve clinical safety. There is a clear need for a deeper understanding of this complex and intriguing disorder.

To achieve this objective regulatory bodies and professionals from the pharmacovigilance arena should develop skills in DILI recognition through an update on the key criteria used for DILI diagnosis and its in-depth phenotyping. This course will combine conceptual talks with problem-solving learning exercises to help translate the knowledge into a real world setting.

Learning Objectives

This training course in DILI will enable to

  • Make a proper DILI case definition and phenotype classification and a case narrative
  • Recognize the drugs most commonly involved in DILI and the scientific evidence to support it
  • Work-out the minimal elements to make a proper DILI case adjudication
  • Balance the value of the diagnostic scales used for DILI assessment
  • Recognize the role of liver tests monitoring in preventing/minimizing DILI risk

 

Assessment

The assessment is based on a written MCQ examination on the last day of the course
