Overview
Post-approval Change Submission – An Overview
To enhance productivity and optimize operational costs, medicinal product manufacturers propose certain changes to the registered content of the medicinal product applications/dossiers. Any changes in the registered content of medicinal products should be submitted to the respective Health Authority (HA) per the appropriate submission procedure with supporting data prior to its implementation. Based on the impact of the change, the prior approval requirements would be determined with reference to the CMC post-approval change submissions (post-approval supplements/amendments/CMC variations) guidelines of the respective HAs. In this phase, the importance of the Regulatory strategy for post-approval change submission is significant.
