2019 Regulatory Affairs Year in Review
Germantown, MD, USA (January 28, 2020) – 2019 was an exciting year of growth and discovery for Amarex Clinical Research, and we are excited to report the below noteworthy achievements.
Amarex’s Regulatory Affairs department offers a competitive regulatory strategy to clients and maintains successful interactions with the U.S. FDA and foreign regulatory bodies. In 2019, Amarex prepared and submitted 12 Investigational New Drug (IND) applications, six 510(k) applications, portions of a rolling Biologics License Application (BLA), one Drug Master File (DMF) application and one New Drug Application (NDA). Amarex also filed over 135 amendments to existing regulatory submissions and two of our clients had products approved.
The U.S. FDA approved a new rapid in vitro diagnostic (IVD) kit, Vstrip, for detection of H. pylori infection. Amarex’s clinical team designed the trials and managed clinical performance of the studies in the U.S. and Taiwan for this product. In addition, Amarex’s biometrics and regulatory departments worked together on the data analysis and the preparation of the 510(k) application.
The U.S. FDA also approved a new prescription weight management aid to be used in conjunction with diet and exercise to treat overweight and obese adults (BMI 25-40 kg/m2). This product successfully completed five clinical studies at several sites across the United States, Canada and Europe, with research data demonstrating safety and efficacy as a weight management aid. Amarex’s biometrics department provided statistical analysis services, aiding in the development of this product.
Amarex’s regulatory experts are available to outline product development strategies that are efficient and cost effective, to manage FDA meetings, and to prepare and submit regulatory applications in North America, Europe, and Asia. Amarex has also established an eCTD submission system in order to comply with new FDA eSubmission requirements.
