Study Notes
Pharmaceutical Technology/Industrial Pharmacy 1 - Lec. 7
-
Product Development Framework: Bringing a new drug to market is complex and controversial, often taking at least ten years. Capital costs are significant, ranging from $500 million to $2 billion. High attrition rates are associated with pharmaceutical development.
-
Success Rates: Well-designed clinical trials, dose-finding studies, and comparisons against a placebo and standard treatment are crucial in reducing attrition rates.
-
Novel Initiatives to Boost Drug Development: Partnering between governmental organizations and industry, such as the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI), aims to improve the competitiveness of European Union pharmaceutical research.
-
What Needs to Be Registered?: Medicinal products, veterinary products, medical devices, and cosmetics require registration. Specific drug products have to be classified as innovator or generics.
-
Drug Products: Most commonly, these are small organic molecules affecting biomolecules like proteins. They're used to diagnose, treat, or prevent diseases or disorders.
-
Biological Products: These products are derived from living sources, such as modified living organisms or extracted tissues. Biosimilars are similar but not identical biological products.
-
ICH (International Conference on Harmonization): A global initiative to harmonize technical requirements for registering pharmaceuticals. The ICH aims to achieve harmonization of the interpretation and application of technical guidelines and standards.
-
Egypt's Drug Registration: Central Departments of the Egyptian Drug Authority (EDA) handle drug registration. The process involves several steps before a product can be sold including a pilot batch manufacturing test of 10% of the batch of drug. This stage ensures quality, safety, and efficacy. The relevant process includes drug testing on animals and in humans.
-
Laws (Regulations): Article 59 of Law 127/1955 requires registering pharmaceutical products with the Ministry of Health. Ministerial Decree 174/1974 mandates re-registration every 10 years. Ministerial Decree 450/2023 outlines modern registration procedures.
-
Who Applies for Drug Registration?: Different entities apply for registration depending on the product's nature: factories, toll pharmaceutical manufacturers, manufacturers themselves, agents or distributors, and scientific offices.
-
CTD (Common Technical Document) Structure: A five-module structure for submitting drug registration information used in the European Union and other jurisdictions. Each section contains relevant specific information. The format is intended to be common across different jurisdictions.
-
Brief Summary of Drug Registration Procedures: Steps include box inquiry, naming and pricing, pharmaco-vigilance reports, pilot batch manufacturing, stability and bioequivalence testing, GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) file documentation, and preparation of patient information leaflets.
