Scientific Advice
Seeking scientific advice or protocol assistance during drug development offers numerous benefits. Firstly, it ensures alignment with regulatory requirements, enhancing the likelihood of successful approval. Additionally, it facilitates early identification and resolution of potential regulatory hurdles, saving time and resources.
Our highly skilled QbD Group experts can guide your project teams, write high-quality briefing books, and help you prepare for the meetings with EMA, FDA, or national agencies or attend them on the client’s behalf.
At QbD Group, we assist you in interacting with necessary health agencies by guiding you through scientific advice and protocol assistance with EMA, FDA, and national agencies, as well as pre-submission meetings.
Types of scientific advice
An essential step in the early stages of developing a potential medicinal product of a candidate medicinal product is the preparation of the Clinical Trial Application for the First in Human (FIH) clinical trial.
QbD Group’s experts will guide you through this process and subsequent steps, for example ensuring compliance with EU Pediatric Regulation Requirements, leveraging opportunities for Orphan Drug Status, and actively seeking regulatory authority input through Scientific Advice procedures throughout the development journey.
What does it entail?
Agency interactions
Successfully submit your application for drug approval to the competent authorities. Qbd we help you interact with the required agencies.
Preparation & communication
Agency interactions play a central role in the drug approval process. For example, in the European Union (EU), a company that wishes to bring a pharmaceutical to the market must submit an application to the competent authority or the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for a ‘marketing authorization’ (license).
Depending on the procedure, our team of experienced consultants help you to interact with all relevant health authorities:
- Centralized procedure: interaction with EMA, (co)-rapporteur, concerned member state.
- National, Mutual Recognition Procedure (MRP) and/or a Decentralized Procedure (DCP): interaction with national agencies.
