Introduction to Generics
Global Regulatory services for generic drug products have evolved over the past few decades. Owing to increasing demand for these products, given the lower prices offered by generic drug manufacturers, generic drug applications are being prioritized by Health Authorities (HAs) in the United States, Europe, and Canada. However, there exist a few untapped markets for generic drug development. Therefore, different Regulatory authorities like the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Health Canada, and the European Medicines Agency (EMA)/Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) are supporting generic drug manufacturers to explore various opportunities related to generic drug application, dossier submissions, and generic drug registration to overcome the existing challenges during generic drug development.

Centralizing Regulatory Services for Generic Drugs
Regulatory requirements for generic drugs differ from one country to another. Therefore, to stay compliant and updated with the regional and global Regulatory standards, it is essential to understand the generic drug approval process and related Regulatory requirements for each country before submitting the MAA to the respective HAs. Freyr’s Regulatory team has an in-depth understanding of the local and regional generic drug application and dossier submission requirements across one hundred and twenty (120) countries.

Drug Approval Process in the EU and US
The development of innovator drug products involves a huge investment of money and time, unlike generics, which are cost-effective and require less time to bring drug products to the market. Innovator drug manufacturers are required to submit the Investigational New Drug application (IND) in the USA, (IMPD application in Europe) and new drug application in the USA, (MAA in Europe) after the successful completion of clinical trials. Similarly, generic drug manufacturers are required to submit a generic drug application known as the Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) in the USA and a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) in Europe, post-completion of the bioequivalence studies.
