Digital Media Exploring how the advertising regulations apply to digital media such as websites, banners, SEO, SEM, and apps. (s.6.5) Malika Ladha PAAB Reviewer

Agenda Key considerations: Access, Content, Linkage and Fair balance Exploring these across an array of digital tools Websites Banner Ads SEO/SEM Apps

Critical Considerations for any e-media type i) The intent of the message: Is the intent of the message to promote a drug, disease awareness or a company? ii) The target audience solicited: Is the information targeted towards healthcare professionals, patients or the consumer? iii) The type of drug product: Does the information pertain to a prescription, non-prescription, vaccine or natural health product? iv) The nature of the online content: Does the site allow for dynamic content or is it static (i.e. entirely controlled by the sponsor)?

WEBSITES (S.6.5.8)

Website (s.6.5.2) The name of the pharmaceutical company sponsor should be stated clearly on: i)Every page of the web-site controlled by the sponsor ii)On every sponsored web-page of a site with no access control Except where regulatory requirements or third party owners prohibit use of the company name.

Website (s.6.5.8) Websites are a complex medium for communicating. They can be highly connected and accessible. Determine who your audience will be from the onset HCP; Patient; Consumer (DTC) Then Consider: Access control Content Balancing copy Linkages

Website: ACCESS CONTROL ( s ) It is the sponsors responsibility to ensure that there is an acceptable barrier between the information you produce and the various audiences Acceptable barriers: – Password required for entry (controlled distribution) DIN (for patients ONLY) Professional License # Arbitrary set of characters selected by manufacturer URL of a website which is not indexed – “keys” which bypass the barrier (controlled distribution) CD, webkey, – Access through moderator approval (with verification on the front end) Remember: Landing page is accessible by the consumer

Unacceptable barriers – Registration and/or attestation alone are NOT sufficient barriers Website: ACCESS CONTROL ( s )

All the current rules and regulations that exist for drug advertising and other activities apply equally to online content. Websites tend to house large amounts of content Websites are not typically read in their entirety within a single sitting Difficult to predict the path users will take through the site. Therefore: – Support needs to be presented with claims Website: CONTENT ( s )

OVERVIEW: Jensulin vs. Passad demonstrated: Significant reduction in A1C Similar decrease in FPG and PPG Reduced incidence of nocturnal hypoglycemia

HCP website: – Indication & fair balance on the home page (post gate) or – Beginning of each section containing product claims AND – A prominent “Safety Information” menu item visible from any screen on the site Website: BALANCING COPY ( s.6.5.8, 2.4 )

Principles: – If you join “advertising” and “non-advertising”, everything becomes “advertising” – Branded and unbranded disease info – Product ad and editorial ad – Internet links – Product Package shot Consider: Proximity Appearance Sequence Context The sponsor may link to corporate global sites only by linking to the global site home page. The sponsor should not link to the global site product pages/sections. Website: LINKAGE ( s )
