Dear Colleague,
The regulatory filing process can drain valuable time and resources when developing a drug for approval. Being the first to hit the market with a new therapy before competition emerges is a great advantage. This is reflected in approval rates for FDA filings granted priority review status — drugs granted priority review had a 67.9% first-cycle approval rates, whereas only 40.3% drugs given standard review were approved. Speeding up the FDA approval process is the best route to position a therapy for maximum market share and to ensure people in need receive the highest quality treatment available as quickly as possible.
The FDA knows that speeding up the development and availability of drugs that can treat serious diseases is in everyone’s interest. This is especially true when the therapy is a unique treatment or is more efficacious than treatments currently on the market.
The FDA developed four different paths that companies can leverage to get their New Drug Application (NDA) reviewed and approved or faster: Priority Review, Accelerated Approval, Fast Track Designation and Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD). Filing for each of these tracks is complex and requires preparation from a drug’s inception to submission.
The Regulatory Filing Strategies Summit is the only event in the industry that has been designed to help regulatory, submissions and legal professionals understand the ins and outs of each of these options and the criteria drugs must meet in order to file for these accelerated tracks, as well as how to compile that data and submit it for approval. This event provides hard case study evidence on which methods are best and debates which method is optimal for certain new therapies.
You asked for content specifically addressing the topics below. We are delighted to provide you with unique case studies on:
• BTD as a Way of Encouraging the Utilization of New Development Tools and Methodologies
• Document (e-CTD) Format: Investigational New Drug Applications (IND), New Drug Application (NDA) and Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDA)
• Planning Process for Simultaneous Global Submissions with a Focus on Emerging Market Support
• Accelerated Track Options for Orphan Drugs
• Responding to FDA Questions: Delegating Roles and Responsibilities for a Submission Rapid Response Process
Join regulatory affairs and clinical operations professionals to discuss best practices for positioning your drug for success in an oversaturated market.
We look forward to seeing you in Philadelphia this February!
Sincerely,
Breakthrough
