Introduction

Migration of Article 57 data into IDMP/SPOR format and terminology

The EMA intends to migrate the data held in the eXtended Eudravigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary

(XEVMPD) and submitted by marketing authorisation holders (MAHs) under the Art.57 (2) legal

obligations since 2012, into the ISO IDMP-compliant data format and terminologies. The transformed

data will be loaded into the PMS hub. This approach is expected to:

• allow building of the new ISO IDMP compatible repository [i.e. Product Management Services

(PMS)] from the data submitted since 2012 under the Art.57 legal obligation;

• provide external stakeholders with services (i.e. API) for the access and retrieval of their own data

previously submitted in Art.57 data format [i.e. via the eXtended Surveillance Medicinal Product

Report message (XEVPRM)] transformed and remapped into the new data format and

terminologies for further validation and enrichments;

• facilitate business continuity ensuring that PMS contains data comparable with what is available in

the Article 57 database and currently supports the EMA business and regulatory processes until

integration with PMS will be implemented;

• facilitate transparency and comprehension of the data transformed into the new format by

stakeholders and owner of the data.

This section provides information on the approach followed by the European Medicines Agency (EMA)

to enable the transformation and migration of the Art.57 data held in the XEVMPD into the ISO IDMP-

compliant data format and terminologies which will reside in the PMS hub. Specifically, this chapter is

aimed at describing the following aspects:

1. what data from Art.57 database is migrated into PMS hub;

2. description of the technical strategy and solutions adopted for the forward transformation and

migration of the data from Art.57 database into PMS as well as the so-called 'feedback loop'; i.e.

once the data is modified in PMS, the transformation and synchronisation of the affected data back

in the Art.57 database;

3. the Art.57-PMS data mapping, including the transformation rules that will be applied to the data

during the forward migration from Art.57 database into PMS and in the feedback loop.

This chapter is purely for information only and for transparency, it does not require or oblige individual

stakeholders to implement this approach in their in-house systems. The mapping and migration rules

provided are based on the XEVMPD and PMS logical data model which may be different from the

individual stakeholder database architecture and it is beyond EMA remit to advice stakeholders on how

to migrate the data recorded in their internal system to fulfil new legal requirements. However, the

Agency is committed to share its own strategy and experience and encourages the stakeholders to

reflect and transpose the transformation rules provided in section 1.2. Mapping and migration rules in

their in-house system when transforming Article 57 data into IDMP-compatible format.

The migrated data can be exported and accessed via the API as specified in Chapter 5 and 6 of this

Guidance.

1.1. Scope and strategy

The strategy to migrate the data into PMS and the feedback loop is described in this section and

outlined in Figure 1.

Figure 1

The data is migrated from XEVMPD into PMS (i.e. as a database to database migration) and a feedback

loop process is synchronising the data from PMS into XEVMPD via XEVPRM messages. The data is

migrated from XEVMPD into PMS in two stages:

• full data migration, that allows the initial load of the data from XEVMPD into PMS; and

subsequently

• delta import, that allows the periodic synchronisation from XEVMPD into PMS system with the

newly received data.

1.1.1. Full data migration (i.e. initial load)

As part of the full data migration (i.e. initial load), all versions of all authorised human products are

migrated from the XEVMPD into PMS; this includes all historical versions of the XEVMPD products

independently from:

• the marketing authorisation status (i.e. including withdrawn, superseded);

• the country of authorisation (i.e. non-EU products provided in the database on volunteer basis or

as necessary for pharmacovigilance activities);

• the sender of the product (i.e. including all so-called 'XEVMPD Legacy Products' as maintained by

EMA);

• the status of the product (i.e. including nullified products).

NOTE: Development products available in the XEVMPD are not migrated in the initial load the as part

of this phase of the project.

Products Management Services (PMS) - Implementation of International Organization for

Standardization (ISO) standards for the identification of medicinal products (IDMP) in

Europe

EMA/676106/2019 Page 5/43

The outline of the full data migration process is as follows:

1. A preparatory step occurs, where relevant underlying terminology is migrated and mastered in the

Referentials Management Services (RMS), Organisation Management Services (OMS) and

Substance Management Services (SMS) as applicable and with the appropriate cross references to

the XEVMPD (EV Codes). Hence the EV Codes of the XEVMPD terminologies are loaded into a

staging area where the EV Codes are transformed into the relevant RMS, OMS, SMS codes and

terms.

2. Subsequently, the XEVMPD data is transformed into IDMP compatible format based on the PMS

Logical Data Model (LDM) and according to the mapping rules described in section 1.2. Mapping

and migration rules of this document when loading into PMS.

1.1.2. Delta data import

As part of the delta import, from XEVMPD into PMS all versions of new products created in the XEVMPD

and all versions of products which have been amended in the XEVMPD since the last synchronisation

are migrated to PMS. Vice versa, the feedback loop process takes place when migrating the data from

PMS into the XEVMPD. During feedback loop process, all versions of new products created in PMS and

all versions of products which have been amended in PMS since the last synchronisation are migrated

to the XEVMPD.

The outline of the delta import process is as follows:

1. A delta detection process runs every hour and loads XEVMPD changes into PMS based on the same

process of the full data migration process described in section 1.1.1. Full data migration (i.e. initial

load). 1.1.1.

2. The XEVMPD synchronises with PMS by identifying, extracting and synchronising the changes

received in the XEVMPD since the last delta import. Any data changes that occur in RMS, OMS,

SMS are evaluated (in real time) for relevance to the XEVMPD and, where appropriate, substance,

referentials and organisation data changes are propagated to the XEVMPD via XEVPRM, with the

appropriate EV Code.

NOTE: Product versions created in the XEVMPD by a synchronisation from PMS are not synchronised to

PMS again.

1.1.3. Feedback loop

The feedback loop process is synchronising the data from PMS into XEVMPD via XEVPRM messages.

At an agreed schedule, the changes received in the PMS hub are codified with the appropriate EV Code

and propagated to XEVMPD via XEVPRM.

NOTE 1: a version management system is in place whereby any XEVPRM generated from PMS that

does not refer to the latest version of the product as available in the XEVMPD will be rejected by the

XEVMPD parser. This is to ensure that information received directly in the XEVMPD (e.g. by external

stakeholders via Art.57 submission) is never overwritten by the synchronisation from PMS (i.e. during

the transition period). Further details of the version management system are described in section

1.1.5. Version and conflicts management.

Standardization (ISO) standards for the identification of medicinal products (IDMP) in

Europe

EMA/676106/2019 Page 6/43

1.1.4. Terminology mastering and migration

At the time of the migration and transformation of the Art.57 data into PMS all XEVMPD data based on

the controlled vocabularies (CVs) will be mapped and recoded against the terminology available in

RMS, OMS and SMS respectively and as applicable. When the information is pushed back from PMS

hub into XEVMPD via the feedback loop, the information based on RMS, OMS and SMS terminologies

will be codified back into the relevant XEVMPD CV terms.

In order to maintain data integrity, the following load order must be maintained when loading to MDM:

a. Reference data;

b. Organisation data;

c. Substance data;

d. Product data;

e. Deprecation (Substance, Product, Organisation or Reference data transaction).

The table below highlights the relationship between each domain (columns) and its dependencies

(rows):

S P O R

S X

P

O X

R X X X

1.1.5. Version and conflicts management

As each target system has a different route for data updates outside of the feedback loop (i.e. PMS via

manual entry in the EMA Data Stewardship UI and XEVPMD via XML messages), data update conflicts

may arise during migration and feedback loop synchronisation. Such conflicts are resolved by the

XEVMPD being the overriding source of information. The versions in XEVMPD and in PMS may diverge

at a given point in time and prior to the resolution of the conflicts.

Conflicts are defined based on business requirements or where products were updated via messages in

XEVMPD, but an update also occurred in PMS between the XEVPRM message timestamp and the time

when the update was propagated to PMS (i.e. when in PMS an update occurred on an outdated version

of the product).

In this situation, any XEVPRM generated from PMS that does not refer to the latest version of the

product as available in the XEVMPD will be rejected by the XEVMPD parser. This is to ensure that

information received directly in the XEVMPD (e.g. by external stakeholders via Art.57 submission) is

never overwritten by the synchronisation from PMS (i.e. during the transition period). This solution

implies the following:

Products Management Services (PMS) - Implementation of International Organization for

Standardization (ISO) standards for the identification of medicinal products (IDMP) in

Europe

EMA/676106/2019 Page 7/43

• Versions of a product within PMS contain a reference to the revision number in XEVMPD that they

refer to. This is populated through the ETL (Extract-Transform-Load) and through the processing of

the acknowledgement (ACK) messages.

• Once a product is changed in PMS, the message sent to XEVMPD contains a reference to the

XEVMPD revision number that the change is based on. PMS will obtain this from the versions of the

product.

• XEVMPD verifies, upon reception of the message, if the revision number is still the latest, in which

case it will proceed normally (i.e. positive ACK should no other conflicts arise), or if there is a more

current revision, in which case the message shall be rejected (i.e. generating a negative ACK).

• PMS will process ACK (including Negative ACK messages) and, in case a positive ACK is received,

the PMS version is linked with the specified XEVMPD revision number (as parsed from the ACK

message).

1.2. Mapping and migration rules

This section describes the data elements available in the Article 57 database and the data fields in PMS

to which this data will be migrated (as applicable).

As outlined in section 1.1. Scope and strategy, the migration of the data from Art.57 database into

PMS hub is performed via a database to database data migration. Hence the description of the rules

applicable for backwards and forward transformations, are presented listing the concerned data

elements of the applicable subject areas, within the PMS LDM and as per Figure 2 below:

1.2.1. Authorised medicinal product subject area

1.2.1.1. Medicinal Product

PMS defines medicinal products (for the purpose of the PMS database) in accordance to attributes

Country, Active substance (or group of active substances contained in the same medicinal product),

Pharmaceutical form, Medicinal product strength and Product name (including all different names

associated to the same global marketing authorisation).

In some member states, Marketing Authorisation Numbers for Nationally Authorised Products (NAPs)

are assigned at Packaged Medicinal Product level; this is also the case for Centrally Authorised

Products (CAPS). In addition, translations of the medicinal product name for medicinal products

covered by the same marketing authorisation (MA) number are considered to be the same medicinal

product name in PMS. In both cases, these types of products are listed as separate products in

XEVMPD. Grouping of these separate products in XEVMPD under a single product entity in PMS will

take place during the enrichment process and will be further analysed during the project’s migration

design.

The elements highlighted in red in Figure 3and table below summarise the information that is mapped

to Article 57 data and that are subject to transformation, migration and feedback loop.

1.2.1.3. Pharmaceutical Dose Form

IDMP and XEVMPD present several differences in the support of Dose Forms that need to be considered

during the transformation of data from XEVMPD to PMS and from PMS to EV. The following Figure 5

shows the 3 different types of Pharmaceutical Dose Forms supported in the PMS LDM, which follows

the IDMP guidance:

Page 13: Products Management Services (PMS) - Implementation of ... · obligations since 2012, into the ISO IDMP-compliant data format and terminologies. The transformed data will be loaded

Products Management Services (PMS) - Implementation of International Organization for

Standardization (ISO) standards for the identification of medicinal products (IDMP) in

Europe

EMA/676106/2019 Page 13/43

Figure 5

These three types of Pharmaceutical Dose Forms present in IDMP are defined and summarised as

follows:

• Medicinal Product.Combined Pharmaceutical Dose Form: The combined pharmaceutical dose

form is a single term to describe two or more manufactured items that are intended to be

combined in a specific way to produce a single pharmaceutical product;

• Manufactured Item.Manufactured Dose Form: This describes the pharmaceutical dose form of

the manufactured item, where applicable, before transformation into the pharmaceutical product;

• Pharmaceutical Dose Form.Administrable Dose Form: This shall describe the administrable

dose form in accordance with the regulated product information. This is after it has undergone any

necessary reconstitution, where applicable.

In Article 57 database, however, the following types of Pharmaceutical Dose Form apply:

• MedicinalProduct.Authorised Pharmaceutical Form (AP.APF.1): there can be 1..* of these

forms;

• Pharmaceutical Product.Administrable Pharmaceutical Form (PP.1): there can be 1..* of

these forms.

Also, the full Manufactured item is not available in the Article 57 database. However, it is the intention

to populate the PMS Manufactured Item as much as possible with the data currently available in the

Article 57 database, This is done by using the process of transformation of data from XEVMPD to PMS

Page 14: Products Management Services (PMS) - Implementation of ... · obligations since 2012, into the ISO IDMP-compliant data format and terminologies. The transformed data will be loaded

Products Management Services (PMS) - Implementation of International Organization for

Standardization (ISO) standards for the identification of medicinal products (IDMP) in

Europe

EMA/676106/2019 Page 14/43

to facilitate the mapping and enrichment efforts from external stakeholders and to maximise the re-

use of the currently available data.

The Authorised Pharmaceutical Form in the Article 57 database will also contain the combined

pharmaceutical dose forms where applicable (i.e.: where the SmPC mentions such a dose form).

An analysis of the current Article 57 data highlighted that around 90% of the existing Article 57

products are composed of a single Pharmaceutical Product and a single Authorised Dose Form and that

in such cases Authorised and Administrable Dose Forms are equal.

It also must be noted that the MedicinalProduct.Authorised Pharmaceutical Form (AP.APF.1) is used in

the calculation of the chargeable units in PhV fees and therefore feedback loop rules should be

particularly precise and accurate.

1.2.1.3.1. Import from XEVMPD into PMS

• The PMS LDM has been extended to support Authorised Pharmaceutical Form as well. This will be

for internal EV-PMS synchronisation purposes only. This attribute shall be populated by

copying AP.APF.1 at import time. This attribute will be visible to EMA Data Stewards in the EMA

Data Stewardship UI (as part of the MDM Physical Data Model), but it will not be exposed

externally via API and subject to maintenance activities from external stakeholders.

• A rule is implemented that, if a single Authorised Pharmaceutical Form and a single

Pharmaceutical Product are present in the Article 57 database, and if such Form is NOT of type

Combined (attribute present in the RMS list Combined Pharmaceutical Form), in PMS one

Manufactured Item shall be created whose Manufactured Dose Form shall be equal to the

Authorised Dose Form and whose Ingredients will be the same as Ingredients of the XEVMPD

Pharmaceutical Product. If there are more than one Authorised Pharmaceutical Forms in EV, no

Manufactured Item structure is created in PMS at all. For example, a product whose Authorised

Dose Form in XEVMPD is “Tablet” and that has one active ingredient of “Paracetamol 500 mg”, will

result in one single Manufacture Item with Manufactured Dose Form “Tablet” and the Manufactured

Item will have one single ingredient as “Paracetamol 500 mg”.

• If one (and only one) Authorised Pharmaceutical Form is present in the Article 57 database, and if

such Authorised Pharmaceutical Form is of type Combined (attribute present in the RMS list

Combined Pharmaceutical Form), it shall be used as source for the Medicinal Product.Combined

Pharmaceutical Dose Form. Otherwise, the target PMS Combined Pharmaceutical Form attribute

will remain empty.

• PMS Pharmaceutical Product.Administrable Dose Form shall be populated with information from the

Art.57 Pharmaceutical Product.Administrable Pharmaceutical Form (PP.1) directly, this structure is

subject to a 1:1 direct mapping.

1.2.1.3.2. Feedback from PMS into EV

• The above-mentioned new attribute in PMS LDM Authorised Pharmaceutical Form, shall be used as

source for the same attribute (AP.APF.1) in the Article 57 database. This attribute ensures that the

existing data provided in the Article 57 database submission and used for the calculation of the

pharmacovigilance fees is safeguarded from the migration and feedback loop from PMS.

Page 15: Products Management Services (PMS) - Implementation of ... · obligations since 2012, into the ISO IDMP-compliant data format and terminologies. The transformed data will be loaded

Products Management Services (PMS) - Implementation of International Organization for

Standardization (ISO) standards for the identification of medicinal products (IDMP) in

Europe

EMA/676106/2019 Page 15/43

• However, the above attribute will only be populated in Products imported from the Article 57

database. Products first created in PMS and subsequently updated through the API shall not

have Authorised Pharmaceutical Form populated (it will not be exposed via API to external

stakeholders and therefore be subject to maintenance activities). In that case, the Authorised

Pharmaceutical Form will be automatically calculated by PMS based on the following rules:

− if there is a Medicinal Product.Combined Pharmaceutical Dose Form in PMS, it shall be used to

populate Authorised Pharmaceutical Form in PMS,

− if there is NOT a Medicinal Product.Combined Pharmaceutical Dose Form in PMS, all

distinct Manufactured Item.Manufactured Dose Forms shall be used to populate Authorised

Pharmaceutical Forms in PMS.

• The calculated Authorised Pharmaceutical Form could be manually overwritten by a Data Steward

using the EMA Data Stewardship UI.

• Authorised Pharmaceutical Form in the Article 57 database (AP.APF.1) will be populated from this

calculated (and manually validated) Authorised Pharmaceutical Form from PMS.

1.2.1.3.3. Expected behaviour

• Around 90% of the Article 57 products will have an automatic population of the Manufactured Item

structure. The rest will require enrichment from Industry.

• The fee calculation remains stable thanks to the following rules:

1.2.7.2.1. Strength migration rationale

The XEVPMD schema and the PMS LDM use different models to capture an ingredient's strength and

unit of presentation:

• PMS LDM (following IDMP) allows strength to be expressed separately for Presentation and

Concentration (relevant for liquids and powders), whereas the XEVMPD has only one set of

attributes to capture strength;

• PMS LDM (following IDMP) has a separate attribute to capture Unit of Presentation which is

captured at the Pharmaceutical Product level, whereas XEVMPD sometimes stores unit of

presentation in the denominator of the strength (e.g. 100 mg / tablet, or 10 mg / puff) and

sometimes stores unit of measurement in the denominator of strength (e.g. 100 mg / 100 ml).

This attribute is mandatory in IDMP;

In PMS, all the Presentation and Concentration attributes shall be treated (and hereby referred to) as a

block.

NOTE: according to ISO IDMP standards specifications, the Presentation block in PMS is mandatory but

not yet available, until the data is enriched from external stakeholders with the additional information,

as will be required in the FHIR message and as described in Chapter 2 and Chapter 6 of this EU

Implementation Guide.

The following general principles and rules apply for the migration and feedback loop of the presentation

and concentration blocks:

Page 37: Products Management Services (PMS) - Implementation of ... · obligations since 2012, into the ISO IDMP-compliant data format and terminologies. The transformed data will be loaded

Products Management Services (PMS) - Implementation of International Organization for

Standardization (ISO) standards for the identification of medicinal products (IDMP) in

Europe

EMA/676106/2019 Page 37/43

• On the migration of the data from XEVMPD into PMS, all of the Presentation block of

Ingredient Substance Strength will be populated if the unit in the source system (i.e. in XEVMPD) is

of type presentation; Otherwise (i.e. if the unit in the XEVMPD is of type measurement), the

Concentration block shall be populated. The basic rule to populate them or not depends on the

type of the unit at source. This rule can be generally expressed as follows:

• On the feedback loop of the data from PMS into XEVMPD, the Presentation block from PMS

will be propagated in XEVMPD in case it is populated; in case it is not populated in PMS, the

Concentration block shall be used as source of data for the feedback loop. In the case that both

blocks are populated (scenario only possible for products submitted directly to PMS through the

API), the Presentation block will take precedence. This logic can be represented as follows:

Each of the attributes of the block has its own mapping rules as presented in section 1.2.7.2.3. and

1.2.7.2.4. Concentration Strength Block.

1.2.7.2.2. Transformation of Units of Measurements

As generally applicable to all data that is based on controlled terminologies in XEVPMD, the individual

terms are mapped and recoded with the terms available in RMS when migrating the data from XEVPMD

to PMS; and vice versa, all RMS terms will be recoded against XEVPMD Controlled Terminologies during

the feedback loop from PNMs to XEVPMD.

The XEVMPD units of measurement are presented as a combination of unit prefix and actual unit (e.g.

10 mg, where m-milli and g-gram are stored in 2 separate attributes), whereas in the PMS LDM it is

allowed to store any RMS unit of measurement as a single attribute (e.g. 10 mg).

When transforming the Unit of Measurement available in the XEVPMD into the RMS corresponding list,

a mapping of the terms in RMS occurs to represent the composition of units. in the XEVMPD, a given

unit is composed of a prefix and another unit: in the transformation, the term from the units of

measurement prefix and the term from the units of measurement list are concatenated to form one

single term. For example, the term Milli and the term Gram will be concatenated in the term Milligram

(from UoM). Once the concatenation is performed, the searching of the values in the RMS list occurs.

1.2.7.2.3. Presentation Strength Block

The individual mapping rules of each presentation strength block is presented in this section.

The Strength will be migrated according to the value in the EVMPD/XEVPRM (Low Amount)

Denominator Unit (PP.ACT.8). If (Low Amount) Denominator Unit (PP.ACT.8) is of type Unit of

Presentation the 'Presentation Strength Block' will be migrated as follows:

1.2.7.3. Reference Strength

The elements highlighted in red in Figure 25 and table below summarise the information that is

mapped to Article 57 data and that are subject to the transformation, migration and feedback loop.

Reference strength is applicable to active substances. Where an active substance is in the form of a

salt or hydrate, the reference strength must be expressed in terms of the mass [or biological activity in

International (or other) units where appropriate] of the active moiety (base, acid or anhydrous

material). In these situations, strength (quantitative composition level) and reference strength level

will be different in PMS.

Since information on Strength in XEVMPD is based on the information in the SmPC and in a number of

medicinal products Strength (quantitative composition) and Reference Strength will be identical (if the

active substance is not a salt/hydrate), strength from XEVMPD will be repeated with Strength and

Reference Strength. Any inconsistency needs to be amended during the enrichment process.
