Summary of 2022 Case Studies

By Juliane Manitz on March 15, 2023

Last year, the R validation hub recently initiated a three-part presentation series on case studies in which eight pharmaceutical companies shared their experiences on building a GxP framework with R. These case studies highlighted both easy and challenging aspects of implementing risk assessment for R packages in a GxP environment. In this blog post we attempt to summarize common themes, difference in approaches, and challenges. All implementations followed the risk validation process for R packages outlined in the white paper.

I’m pleased to share that the R Validation Hub’s efforts have been recognised in the ASA Biopharmaceutical report, Fall 2022. Within the edition you can find our paper, Risk Assessment of R Packages: Learnings and Reflections.

It’s time to bring another update to you on the current status of the R validation hub: The riskmetric R package has been stable on CRAN. Recent work has focused on structuring “cohort metrics” – metrics that are conditioned on the package library or execution environment available to R. In R, package behaviors are often dependent on the rest of the R installation, and this new feature will help to make metrics more inspectible and reproducible, as well as allowing us to ask new questions like, “What would be the effect of installing a new package into an R environment?
