Pharos Scout
Adverse-event-driven literature surveillance, audit-ready by default.
Where teams lose time and visibility.
Periodic literature monitoring for pharmacovigilance requires consistent, reproducible and documented search processes, yet most teams rely on manual approaches that are difficult to audit and consume disproportionate writer time.
Pharmacovigilance literature monitoring software.
Pharos Scout is an adverse-event-driven surveillance platform that automates validated PubMed search-query construction per drug-AE combination, retrieves and de-duplicates articles, scores them by evidence quality, and produces audit-ready reports with a scientific narrative prioritisation framework built in.
Delivered as part of Ichelon's scientific & PV practices

What Pharos Scout does.
Validated MeSH + TIAB Query Builder
Auto-generates validated PubMed search strings using MeSH headings and comprehensive drug spelling variants in TIAB fields, producing reproducible, auditable literature coverage across all selected drug-AE combinations.
Consolidated Evidence Table with AE-Wise Signal Analysis
All retrieved articles are de-duplicated and presented in a consolidated evidence table tagged by study type, adverse event and evidence score, instantly surfacing which AEs have active literature signals requiring narrative attention.
Scientific Narrative Prioritisation Framework
Per-AE article views with evidence scoring, study-type classification and abstract-level triage let medical writers and PV scientists systematically prioritise which articles require full review and narrative documentation.
