Overview
The Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) is an application submitted to the USFDA for the review and approval of a generic drug demonstrating bioequivalence against the already approved innovator drug so that the generic drug can be used as a safe, effective, and low-cost alternative to the brand-name drugs.
Applicants must follow the content and format, Refuse-to-Receive standards, and other USFDA guidelines for the successful approval of an ANDA during the first review cycle.
Freyr, with extensive experience in registration activities, offers end-to-end ANDA services for manufacturers/sponsors/ANDA applicants and thus, can be a preferred Regulatory partner to ensure Market Authorization Application (MAA) approval right at the first time.
