Quality

Basically, every medicinal product application for marketing authorization needs to be submitted with registration dossier in Common Technical Document (CTD) structure consisting of Modules
1-5. Module 3 of CD refers to quality part. It covers relevant chemical and pharmaceutical information about the QUALITY of medicinal product, its active substances and excipients (including data for biological/biotechnological products). It provides the detailed information on formulation, manufacturing process, relevant controls and other important product quality data needed to be assessed by Agencies prior granting the marketing authorization
The quality of a medicinal product must be proven according to the current scientific knowledge and respective guidelines. There is a long list of regulations aimed to assure that the product is designed with highest quality in mind. The specific regulatory requirements depend on many aspects, like the dosage form (solid, liquid), administration route (oral, parenteral, topical, inhalation), presence of the dosage device (syringes, pens, cups, sprays), target population (children, adults, elderly people), substance type (known, pharmacopoeial or novel) and substance origin (chemical, herbal, biological, biotechnological, genetically engineered, immunological, radioactive), etc.

Notice to Applicants (NTA), Volume 2B-CTD indicates the scope of the guidelines regarding the quality of medicinal products and provides the respective references to assist applicants. As part of CTD, Module 3 should take into account the relevant information described in existing EMA (European Medicines Agency) guidelines and where relevant, also additional guidelines listed in the NTA. It is also of key importance to follow the requirements of the European Pharmacopoeia wherever they apply. It is worth remembering, as also highlighted in the NTA, that the content of NTA sections which refer to Module 3 is intended to be illustrative only and should not be considered an exhaustive source of guidance. It is the Applicant's responsibility to ensure that all relevant provisions, guidance, requirements and current scientific knowledge are taken into account. This is often a challenge for Applicants to go through the thicket of quality requirements, but ultimately benefit patients.
