Strategies for IND Filing Success

Filing an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with FDA is a milestone for emerging pharmaceutical companies seeking to gain approval for clinical testing of innovative new therapies. The IND application process must be thorough and by the book; collecting and reporting the supporting chemistry, manufacturing, and control (CMC) information can be stumbling blocks in the path to IND approval.

This webcast is designed to help guide small- and mid-size pharma companies through the steps required to prepare the chemistry and manufacturing process information expected by FDA in an IND application. While the focus is on novel small-molecule therapeutics, the elements discussed will be useful background for large-molecule programs as well.

Experts discuss the application process and communications with FDA; identify required information about the quality, purity, strength, preparation, and stability of the drug substance and drug product; and explain the crucial analytical methods and validation processes needed for a successful filing.
