Frequently asked questions

What is regulatory strategy and submissions consulting?

It is the non-CMC regulatory discipline that plans how a program will move through health authorities and authors the submissions that carry it there, including IND and CTA filings and NDA, BLA, and MAA dossiers.

What is a 505(b)(2) pathway?

505(b)(2) is a US regulatory pathway for a new drug application that relies in part on data the applicant did not generate itself, such as published literature or a previous finding of safety and effectiveness. It can offer a more direct route for certain candidates.

What does a US Agent do?

A US Agent is the required in-country point of contact for a foreign company that interacts with the US health authority. The agent receives communications and helps coordinate the sponsor's dealings with the agency.

How do CMC and non-CMC regulatory consulting differ?

Non-CMC regulatory covers clinical, nonclinical, and administrative strategy and the authoring of those submission sections. CMC regulatory covers the manufacturing and analytical content. NGT runs them as separate but coordinated practices.
