OK I've set as you said but the main problem is that messages aren't classified as expected with black rules set.....
Even today in the log panel, four messages, each with subject:
- PHfyyARMA
- PHldfARMA
- PHldfARMA
- PHfyyARMA
weren't classified as spam even if I've set the following black rule:

STRONG Header{Subject} =~ PH[\d\w\s]{1,}?RMA

Isn't it good?
First I put STRONG Header{Subject} =~ PH.*RMA but someone in the forum said it was not good.
Could please someone tell me if I have to change something in my black rule definition??
thanks

There was a six-months-old bug in rules, that blocked working of conditions with the first capital letter. All your patterns have capital 'P' at the beginning and that is the problem. If you replace it with a small 'p', then the rules will work properly. The text is transformed to lower case before checking, and the patterns too (except the first letter due to bug in 1.6.7 and lower), so using the capital letters in patterns doesn't make sense anyway.

The bug is fixed in version 1.6.7.2, please update the plug-in.

And about the syntax, it wasn't true the black rule:

Header{Subject} =~ PH.*RMA

was wrong. Now with new version of ASS, the rule as above correctly filters the messages corresponding to the criterion
So the syntax was good, it was the plugin which didn't correctly filter messages.
Now from version 1.6.7.2 everything runs fine....

The condition syntax is correct and the rule will filter the variants of PHARMACY well. But this rule may filter the good messages too. For example, the subject "Photos of Parma" completely suits your rule. The expression ".*" matches any number of any symbols, including spaces, tabulations etc. That is why it is more safe to specify additional limitations in patterns. For example, the following pattern looks similar, but it is more safe because it limits the number of internal symbols:
Header{Subject} =~ PH.{1,3}RMA

Additionally, you can specify the border markers in pattern:
Header{Subject} =~ \bPH.{1,3}RMA

All variants of PHARMACY starts from "PH". So searching for some word limit before that symbols is reasonable, because it protects from possible mistakes in general case.
