ABSTRACT: Regulatory affairs in the pharmaceutical industry play an important role in ensuring the safety, efficacy, and quality of medicinal products worldwide. The pharmaceutical drug regulatory affairs profession was developed from the desire all over the world to protect public health by providing good quality medicine including safety and efficacy in the area of not only pharmacy but also in the area of veterinary medicine, medical devices, insecticides, pesticides, agrochemical, cosmetic and complementary medicine. Regulatory affairs acts as an interface between the pharmaceutical company and the regulatory agencies. The key role of regulatory affairs professions includes maintaining Compliance, Product approval, Risk management, Market access, Quality assurance. It works under proper organizational structure and various regulatory bodies around the world. Regulatory affairs professional also involves in clinical trail and R&D to develop innovative products that take advantage of new technological and regulatory developments to accelerate time to market. They can face regulatory non-compliance issues, but drug developers can also look to tech-enabled solutions to improve regulatory compliance. Regulatory affairs should explore whether the different innovation in pharma can decrease the risk of compliance issues.

With its expansion into the global marketplace, the pharmaceutical industry of today is uniquely positioned to improve the global health standards of society by saving lives and improving the quality of lives around the world. Modern Pharmaceutical Industry: A Primer comprehensively explains the broad range of divisions in this complex industry. Experts actively involved in each division discuss their own contribution to a pharmaceutical company's work and success. Divisions include regulatory affairs, research and development, intellectual property, pricing, marketing, generics, OTC, and more

This book structured in TWO different parts. These parts are as follows: Part I emphasizes on GCP (Good Clinical Practices), GLP (Good Laboratory Practices), GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices), USFDA-NDA/ANDA (U S Food and Drug Administrations- New Drug Approval/Abbreviated New Drug Approval) and TQM (Total Quality Management). GCP (Good Clinical Practices) is an international quality standard that is provided by International Conference on Harmonization (ICH), an international body that defines standards, which governments can transpose into regulations for clinical trials involving human subjects. Good Clinical Practice guidelines include protection of human rights as a subject in clinical trial. It also provides assurance of the safety and efficacy of the newly developed compounds. Good Clinical Practice Guidelines include standards on how clinical trials should be conducted, define the roles and responsibilities of clinical trial sponsors, clinical research investigators, and monitors. In the pharmaceutical industry monitors are often called Clinical Research Associates. GLP (Good Laboratory Practices) deals with the organization, process and conditions under which laboratory studies are planned, performed, monitored, recorded and reported. GLP practices are intended to promote the quality and validity of test data. Published GLP regulations and guidelines have a significant impact on the daily operation of an analytical laboratory. GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) Manufacturing relies on the ability to reproduce exactly a single product hundreds, if not thousands, of times. To make this possible, guidelines have been drawn up in most countries that are similar to the FDA ones described here that define GMPs. Diagnostic companies, including those manufacturing and distributing biosensors, cannot sell their products for either public or professional use unless they have been approved on the basis of these guidelines.

This Brief defines competitive intelligence (CI) as a tool for making investment decisions within the pharmaceutical industry. It provides an overview of processes that the regulatory affairs professional must take into account when evaluating data impacting product-based risk evaluations. These apply particularly to evaluations that focus on outputs such as regulatory approval, or the commercial impact of product labeling on the sales forecast over a limited timeframe. The Brief also provides an overview of intellectual property assessment that can impact a product’s lifespan on the market due to patent protection itself (or loss of patent protection) or via regulatory exclusivity. Case examples are discussed to illustrate the importance of keeping up with the ever-changing regulations, and how to interpret them in the context of CI. In addition, there is a section on virtual data rooms (VDRs) which currently function as the cornerstone of due diligence investigations. While aimed primarily at regulatory affairs professionals in the United States, this publication provides a useful adjunct for other pharmaceutical executives, especially those new to product-based investments, and regulatory affairs professionals in other regions. ​
