Best Practices in Clinical Pharmacology Gap Analysis

Life Sciences, Clinical Trials,
  • Tuesday, November 14, 2017

Submitting your New Drug Application (NDA) to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is the ultimate test of a drug program. Are you confident that you’ll have robust answers to the 40 different questions that the agency will ask about your clinical pharmacology data package at the time of an NDA submission? If the thought gives you “pre-test jitters,” you might want to invest in a clinical pharmacology gap analysis– a tool that can help you evaluate and address any potential gaps in your program before the FDA does.

The field of clinical pharmacology can help stakeholders address these challenges and improve decision-making at critical milestones, whether early in proof-of-concept phases (preclinical through 2a clinical trials) or in the later stages where a more robust risk and efficacy profile is established (2b through 3 clinical trials). The tools, methods, and frameworks (e.g., mechanistic or quantitative) of clinical pharmacology span distinct sub-specialties and can significantly impact these preclinical and clinical phases.

Attend this webinar to learn from Dr. Julie Bullock, Senior Director of Consulting Services at Certara, how gap analysis can help you ensure that your development program will contain all the elements needed to satisfy regulators and investors during all phases of drug development from Investigational New Drug (IND) to NDA.
