Pharmaceutical and life sciences translation

From product information to clinical documents

Our work can include summaries of product characteristics, package leaflets, labels, protocols, participant information, informed consent forms, clinical reports and supporting quality documents. Patient-facing and technical materials serve different readers, so the brief should specify the audience and intended use for each document.

Where content follows an approved template or terminology source, share it with the source files. Include product names, indications, dosing language and previous translations that your team has approved.

Maintain consistency through updates

Product information can move through several revisions before publication. We work with the source version and reference material you provide and can use terminology resources and translation memory to support consistency across related assignments.

Let us know how changes will be communicated and who will answer terminology queries. If the source is updated after translation begins, we will discuss the impact on scope and delivery.

Plan for your submission

A project manager coordinates the work and agrees handoffs with your team. We scope the documents, languages, formats and review requirements against your submission or study milestone. If your team uses a controlled-document system, tell us which export and delivery formats are required so we can confirm compatibility before the work starts.

Transferendum holds ISO 9001, ISO 17100 and ISO 18587 certification. Specify any required standard, confidentiality terms or restrictions on machine translation in your brief so we can confirm the applicable process.

Product information may include a summary of product characteristics and a package leaflet derived from the same approved source. Provide the relevant template, the latest approved wording and any product-specific glossary so the relationship between documents is clear to the translation team.
