Tips For A Successful eCTD Conversion
With the May, 2018 FDA mandate quickly approaching, conversion of paper IND’s, NDA’s, and DMF’s to eCTD format must happen soon. Here are some tips for a successful eCTD conversion.
Is Your Company Prepared for the FDA eCTD Mandate?
Here we are in 2018, and to the surprise of some and the consternation of many, some paper applications are still alive and well. However, their days are numbered. The May FDA eCTD mandate is upon us. Is your company prepared to implement the FDA’s regulations for eCTD submissions of INDs, NDAs and DMFs?
FDARA Marketing Status Reports Due
Time is running out for an item that may require your regulatory compliance attention. By law, FDARA marketing status reports are due on or before February 14, 2018.
Submitting eCTD in Advance of a Milestone Application
Many people erroneously believe that your first eCTD submission is restricted to a major milestone application – Investigational New Drug (IND) application, Biologics License Application (BLA) or New Drug Application (NDA). That’s simply not the case. It’s 100% possible to file pre-NDA meeting requests, meeting packages and meeting minutes via eCTD in advance of the original NDA submission.
FDA eCTD Mandate: One Year and Counting

However, their days are numbered, with FDA’s eCTD mandate for certain application types set to take effect one year from today.
