A Hybrid System for Comprehensive and Consistent Automated MedDRA Coding of Adverse Drug Event

Proceedings of the 23rd Annual Workshop of the Australasian Language Technology Association

Normalization of Adverse Drug Events (ADEs), or linking adverse event mentions to standardized dictionary terms, is crucial for harmonizing diverse clinical and patient-reported descriptions, enabling reliable aggregation, accurate signal detection, and effective pharmacovigilance across heterogeneous data sources. The ALTA 2025 shared task focuses on mapping extracted ADEs from documents to a standardized list of MedDRA phrases. This paper presents a system that combines rulebased methods, zero-shot and fine-tuned large language models (LLMs), along with promptbased approaches using the latest commercial LLMs to address this task. Our final system achieves an Accuracy@1 score of 0.3494, ranking second on the shared task leaderboard.
