DDReg Pharma- Consulting in regulatory affairs and drug safety

  Safety Reporting in the EU With safety reporting in the European Union (EU) entering a new era of digital integration and oversight, pharmacovigilance systems have become more connected, data-driven, and strategically central to  regulatory compliance . What once revolved around manual case handling and isolated national databases has transformed into a highly interconnected pharmacovigilance network. This shift is not only redefining how  Marketing Authorisation Holders  (MAHs) manage  Individual Case Safety Reports  (ICSRs), but it’s also reshaping their overall safety strategy. The regulatory landscape has gone far beyond the central  EudraVigilance  system. Tools like EVDAS (EudraVigilance Data Analysis System) and SPOR (Substance, Product, Organisation, and Referential data services) have become central to pharmacovigilance compliance. However, with increased automation, transparency, and interconnectivity come greater complexity and respon...

  When a US-based biopharma company faced an FDA clinical hold due to preclinical toxicology concerns, DDReg stepped in. Our regulatory and toxicology experts conducted a deep-dive review of IND data, identified dose-justification gaps, and developed a scientific response package that led to conditional lifting of the hold. Result?  The sponsor resumed its Phase 2 trial without derailing development timelines or investor confidence. This case study highlights how expert toxicological insight and regulatory strategy can turn a major obstacle into continued progress. 🔍  Explore the full case study:   https://resource.ddregpharma.com/case-studies/fda-clinical-hold-lifted-with-ddregs-toxicology-expertise/ #RegulatoryAffairs #ClinicalTrials #FDA #DrugDevelopment #Toxicology #Pharma #DDReg #RegulatoryStrategy

  In the global life sciences industry, whether you’re launching a new pharmaceutical, a  medical device , or a personal care product, the responsibility doesn’t end at regulatory approval. It extends across the product lifecycle, driven by a commitment to patient and consumer safety, and reinforced by an evolving web of global regulatory requirements. Traditionally associated with large pharmaceutical corporations, vigilance is now a critical function for biotechs, MedTech innovators, cosmetic brands, and emerging-market players alike. But here’s the challenge: vigilance isn’t one-size-fits-all. Different product categories demand different vigilance systems, each with its own definitions, rules, timelines, and reporting structures. Let’s explore the three foundational types of vigilance that every regulatory, safety, and quality professional must understand and master. What is Vigilance in Life Sciences? At its core, vigilance is the continuous process of monitoring, detecti...

The traditional randomized controlled trial (RCT) has long been the gold standard for evaluating the efficacy and safety of medical interventions. However, its inherent rigidity, limited generalizability, and operational burden have raised questions about its efficiency in today’s rapidly evolving healthcare landscape. In response, the   U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)   launched FDA’s Project Pragmatica, a pioneering initiative aimed at advancing Embedded Pragmatic Clinical Trials (ePCTs) to transform the future of regulatory-grade evidence generation. Project Pragmatica signals a strategic pivot in regulatory science, one that embraces real-world settings, patient-centered methodologies, and clinical trial simplification without compromising data integrity or scientific rigor. What Are Embedded Pragmatic Clinical Trials (ePCTs)? Unlike explanatory trials, which are tightly controlled and focus on efficacy under ideal conditions,  pragmatic trials  are desig...

Pharmaceutical companies face complex challenges in obtaining product approvals, managing compliance across various stages of the product lifecycle, and adapting to changing   regulatory affair services  requriments.

As a regulatory leader, your responsibility doesn’t end with market approval, it begins there. This sentiment echoes across boardrooms and  regulatory strategy  meetings as post-market surveillance (PMS) becomes a critical pillar of lifecycle management in medical devices. In the times where real-world performance, patient safety, and global compliance are under the spotlight, PMS is a strategic advantage. According to global regulatory experts, the ability to predict, monitor, and act on post-market data is fast becoming a benchmark for excellence in medical device oversight. While the  U.S. FDA  and the European Union (EU) both prioritize PMS, their frameworks reflect two distinct philosophies: the FDA’s reactive yet data-driven model versus the EU’s proactive, lifecycle-integrated system under MDR 2017/745. For companies with global aspirations, understanding these nuances in 2025 is essential to safeguarding brand reputation, achieve compliance, and maintain mark...
