Network Collaborators Announced for CADTH’s Post-Market Drug Evaluation Network

CADTH is pleased to announce the successful collaborators of its inaugural Post-Market Drug Evaluation (PMDE) Network. Collaborators will bring additional expertise to the PMDE Network and will respond to decision-makers’ queries by providing expertise and evidence in the post-market space.

The PMDE Program issued a request for proposals on March 15, 2022, for its Contractors. Proposals were reviewed by a multidisciplinary review panel that identified the following applicants to be PMDE Network Collaborators:

• The Canadian Network for Advanced Interdisciplinary Methods for comparative effectiveness research (CAN-AIM), led by Dr. Sasha Bernatsky and hosted by the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre.
• Exactis – Personalize my Treatment (PMT) Network Cancer Patient Registry, led by Dr. Kostas Trakas and hosted by Exactis Innovation.
• ActionADE (Adverse Drug Events), led by Dr. Corinne Hohl and hosted by the University of British Columbia.
• Drs. Fiona Clement, Mina Tadrous, and Michael Law.
• Active Surveillance and Evaluation of Adverse Reactions in Canadian Healthcare and Pharmacogenomics of Adverse Reaction Events National Team (SEARCH & PREVENT), led by Drs. Bruce Carleton and Colin Ross and hosted by the University of British Columbia.

These collaborators bring decades of experience in the post-market landscape and are well prepared to respond to the needs of federal, provincial, and territorial decision-makers.

The PMDE Program will launch September 1, 2022, and contracts will be issued to these individuals or teams as queries are received by the PMDE Program.
