This document provides an overview of product development from a regulatory perspective. It discusses the steps required to prove a product is safe and effective, including preclinical studies, investigational new drug application, clinical trials in phases 1-3, and the marketing application. The target product profile and good practices for manufacturing, clinical research, and laboratories are also covered. The goal is to help maintain high ethical standards and show favorable risk-benefit analysis for approval.

FDA 2013 Clinical Investigator Training Course: Preparing an IND Application: Clinical Considerations for Cell and Gene Therapy Products
Rachel Witten, M.D., (CBER)
Final navigating multiple clinical trial requirements for the usBhaswat Chakraborty
The title of the given topic mainly asks for technical, ethical and strategic aspects of multiple clinical trials that would result in a successful approval of an NDA by the US FDA. Other than Phase I studies aimed at safety and tolerance in healthy subjects, usually one or two exploratory (Phase II) and multiple confirmatory (Phase III) studies are required. Studies in Phase III need to be designed to confirm the findings in Phase II that a drug is safe and effective for use in the intended indication and recipient population. These studies provide an adequate basis for marketing approval. All clinical studies giving evidence of efficacy & safety must be adequate and well-controlled investigations entailing a valid comparison to a control and an accurate quantitative assessment of the drug’s effect. In rare situations, only a single, adequate and well-controlled study of a specific new use (that can be supported by information from other related adequate and well-controlled studies) will suffice for approval. However, when a single study is used, there should be hardly any room for study imperfections or non-supportive information.
In addition to addressing the strategies for multiple clinical trial requirements, the speaker would also discuss the documentation requirements and best practice on conducting effective clinical trials for the US to establish a roadmap for success and also a swift approval. Both documentation and best practices must contain a complete, entirely accurate, representation of study plans, conduct and outcomes. Incompleteness, lack of clarity, unmentioned deviation from prospectively planned analyses, or an inadequate description of how critical endpoint judgments or assessments were made, are seen to be common problems.
Get Your Development Program Started on the Right FootBrook White, PMP
You think you have a potential pharmaceutical or biotechnology product based on animal or in vitro data—what is the next step? Two documents you need at an early stage are the Target Product Profile (TPP) which defines expectations for your potential medicine and an Integrated Product Development Plan (IPDP) which describes the activities required through approval of your marketing application.
Regulatory approval and validations approaches often have to be a bit different when working to get an expedited approval drug to market. This presentation discusses 9 approaches to smooth the process
Approaches to regulatory approval and process validation often must be quite different than traditional approaches. This presentation walks through nine approaches that might be helpful to your project.

2. Product Development Overview
• Prove the product is safe and effective for the proposed indication
• Pharmaceutical products are developed to help treat patients. Always
remember that the patients are people and product development
must maintain a very high ethical standard.
• Risk/benefit
• You also have to remember…
• ~$1 - $5 billion taking into account failed products
• Highly variable
• Drugs for large populations cost more than drugs for rare diseases
• Novelty
• Hurry up and fail
5. An API before and after development
10 years,
$1 bil later
An API into preclinical studies API after obtaining marketing approval
Products do not change during the course of development, you
are just learning more about it.
6. Target Product Profile (TPP)
• The TPP is a document describing the goals and objectives of a
product.
• It includes a lot of information that will end up on the final label:
• Indication and usage
• Intended population
• Dosage and administration
• Dosage form/strengths
• Acceptable adverse reactions
• Expected or acceptable efficacy
• Risk/benefit analyses
• It is a living document and expected to be changed as testing
progresses

• Ensures all information is captured accurately and all changes are
captured and traced.
• Mostly applies to handwritten documents (batch records,
handwritten medical records, or handwritten results from assays).
