Applying AI to Structured Real-World Data for Pharmacovigilance Purposes: Scoping Review

Abstract

AI, along with structured RWD, constitutes a promising line of work for drug safety and pharmacovigilance. However, in terms of AI, some approaches have not been examined extensively in this field (such as explainable AI and causal AI). Moreover, it would be helpful to have a data preprocessing protocol for RWD to support pharmacovigilance processes. Finally, because of personal data sensitivity, evaluation procedures have to be investigated further.
