ACTD
• ASEAN abbreviates Association of South East Asian Nations.
• Established in 08 August 1967
• Ten (10) Member states are Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao, Malaysia,
Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Viet Nam.
• The ASEAN Common Technical Document is organized into four parts. The ACTD
consists of Parts I to IV whereas ICH – CTD has 5 Modules. The administrative data
of Part I is part of ACTD whereas Module 1 of ICH – CTD is purely country
specific. The summaries of the quality (Part II), nonclinical (Part III) and clinical
(Part IV) are located at the beginning of each part of the ACTD. The ICH – CTD
dedicates these summaries in a separate Module 2. As the ACTD does not have
such summary part, it consists of only 4 Parts and not 5.
