Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant search ClinicalTrials.gov, PubMed, FDA drug labels and FAERS reports, and ICH guideline summaries.

What you can do
Provides tools for clinical and pharmaceutical research: searching ClinicalTrials.gov by condition, drug or sponsor and fetching full protocol details by NCT ID; searching PubMed with MeSH, Boolean and date filters and retrieving abstracts by PMID; searching FDA drug labels for indications, warnings and dosage forms; pulling FAERS adverse event reports by drug or reaction; retrieving ICH guideline summaries by code or topic; and formatting citations in Vancouver, APA or AMA style.
When to use it
Useful for medical writing and publications work, regulatory affairs research, and clinical development tasks such as literature gap analysis, labeling precedent checks, adverse event signal review, and competitive landscape searches across trial registries.
Requirements
Runs locally as a stdio process on the user's machine; requires Node.js 18+ and npm, and the package is installed from source. No API keys or accounts are declared, and the data sources are public APIs, so network access is needed.
Before you install
Read-only retrieval from public sources; the README states no data is stored and no API keys are required. Results come from third-party public APIs, so verify clinical, regulatory or labeling information against the official source before relying on it.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Pharma Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

pharma-mcp

MCP server for clinical and pharmaceutical data.

Gives Claude and any MCP-compatible AI agent direct access to:

  • ClinicalTrials.gov — search and retrieve trial protocols, endpoints, eligibility criteria
  • PubMed — literature search with MeSH terms, full abstracts, citation formatting
  • FDA openFDA — drug labels, approved indications, warnings, boxed warnings
  • FDA FAERS — adverse event reports with patient demographics and outcomes
  • ICH Guidelines — structured summaries of E3, E6, E9, M4, Q1A, and more

No API keys required. All data sources are public. Runs locally in under 60 seconds.

Restart Claude Desktop. The tools appear automatically.

Add to Claude Code

bash
claude mcp add pharma-mcp node /absolute/path/to/pharma-mcp/src/index.js

Example prompts

Once connected, ask Claude:

Search ClinicalTrials.gov for Phase 3 recruiting trials for non-small cell lung cancer involving osimertinib.
Find the 10 most recent PubMed papers on GLP-1 receptor agonists and cardiovascular outcomes. Format citations in Vancouver style.
Get the FDA label for semaglutide — what are the boxed warnings and contraindications?
What does ICH E3 require for a clinical study report? Which sections are mandatory?
Pull adverse event reports for dupilumab involving anaphylaxis from FAERS.

Score

40% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.

  • Reached in the last 30 days25 pts

    Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.

  • Auth declared10 pts

    Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
