As a Senior Medical Director at VCLS, Peri is responsible for providing input to, and critical review of, the clinical sections of a variety of documents, including client clinical development plans, ODD, PIP, and PRIME briefing documents. She also plays a key role in identifying questions to be raised with Regulators as part of the requests to EMA, National Agencies and Joint EMA-HTA bodies for scientific advice, and in critically reviewing the advice received. Peri also contributes to responses to issues raised (by CHMP/National regulators) and when required actively participates in the rehearsal of client presentations for oral explanations, from a clinical regulatory perspective.

Peri brings to this role extensive expertise across various therapeutic areas including women’s health, genito-urinary medicine, infectious diseases (anti-bacterial, antiretrovirals, antimalarials, antifungal, and anti-hepatitis medicines), hematology (hemophilia, ITP), cystic fibrosis and other pulmonary related diseases, chronic graft versus host disease, inborn errors of metabolism, gastroenterology, nutrition, pain, and non-prescription products, as well as various drug-device combinations products.

During her time at the MHRA, she led interactions with companies and provided scientific and regulatory advice to companies before and after the submission of their applications. Peri also provided clinical support to the devices division. This involved evaluating device trial applications and amendments, providing clinical advice on devices, and providing clinical input on regulatory aspects of devices.

While working at the MHRA, she made several presentations to the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), Co-ordination Group for Mutual Recognition and Decentralised Procedures (CMDh), Scientific Advice Working party (SAWP) and Infectious Disease Working Party (IDWP).
