1-Day Clinical Overview & Summary Seminar: Creating an Effective Marketing Authorisation Application (London, UK – March 31st, 2020) – ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Clinical Overview and Clinical Summary: Creating Effective Marketing Authorisation Application” conference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

This seminar looks at the latest guidance on how to prepare a clinical overview and summary in accordance with regulatory expectations and to comply with the requirements of the Common Technical Document (CTD)

The Common Technical Document (CTD) Guideline is the obligatory format in the EU and most territories worldwide for registration applications. The clinical overview and clinical summaries in Module 2 provide a critical analysis of the clinical data within the CTD.

This interactive course will present the regulatory guidelines and requirements of Module 2 and discuss practical approaches to developing the content and preparation of the clinical overview and clinical summaries. The programme will provide a review of the latest information and potential future developments and cover associated documents, such as the RMP and SmPC. A practical workshop session will simulate real situations and highlight the key issues to consider when preparing the content of the written summary.
