1. Protocol.
A protocol is a document that outlines the objectives, design, methods, and organization of a clinical trial. It must be submitted to the FDA with an IND application and should include any relevant safety information or data regarding the drug or device being studied. The protocol should also outline any previous research that has been done on the drug or device.
2. Investigator's Brochure.
The investigator’s brochure (IB) is a document that provides information on the investigational drug or device under investigation in a clinical trial to the investigators and research staff involved in the trial. The IB should include background information about the drug, including its mechanism of action, pharmacology, and toxicology data, as well as safety guidelines for its administration.
3. Investigational New Drug Application (IND).
The IND is an application submitted to the FDA by sponsors of new drugs or devices that are intended for human use. It must include detailed information about the safety and efficacy of the drug or device being studied, as well as any potential risks associated with its use. The IND must also include all relevant data from preclinical studies and clinical trials.
4. Clinical Study Report(s) (CSR).
The CSR is a document that summarizes the results of a clinical trial. It includes information about the objectives, design, methods, and organization of the trial as well as any relevant safety information or data regarding the drug or device being studied.
5. Informed Consent Form(s).
Informed consent forms are documents used to ensure that research subjects understand their rights and responsibilities when participating in a clinical trial. These forms should be written in plain language so that research subjects can easily understand them and identify any potential risks associated with participating in a trial.
6. Case Report Forms/Data Collection Documents.
Case report forms (CRFs) and data collection documents are used to collect data from clinical trials. They should be designed in a way that allows for the efficient collection and analysis of data, as well as provide a comprehensive record of all relevant information related to the trial.
7. Labeling Material.
Labeling materials are documents that provide important safety information about a drug or device and must be submitted to the FDA as part of an IND application. The labeling material should include any potential risks associated with using the product, as well as directions for proper use and storage.
8. Manufacturing Information/Certificate Of Analysis (COA).
Manufacturing information and Certificates of Analysis (COA) provides evidence that a product meets the quality standards set forth by the FDA. This information must be included in an IND application and should include any data on testing methods used to evaluate the drug or device, as well as any relevant safety information.
9. Animal Toxicology Reports & Studies.
Animal toxicology reports and studies provide important safety information about a drug or device and must be submitted to the FDA as part of an IND application. These studies should identify any potential risks associated with using the product.
10. Biostatistical Plan & Analysis Summary.
The biostatistical plan outlines the design, methodology, and statistical analysis of a clinical trial. It should include any relevant safety information or data that could affect the results of the trial, as well as procedures for collecting and analyzing data from the study. The biostatistical plan should also include an analysis summary detailing the results of the study and any conclusions drawn from them.
11. Drug Substance & Formulation Specifications.
Drug substance and formulation specifications provide detailed information about the composition and properties of a drug or device. This information must be included in an IND application and should include any relevant safety information regarding the product.
12. Stability Data.
Stability data provides information about how a drug or device will degrade over time. This data must be included in an IND application and should include any relevant safety information regarding the product's shelf life.
13. Nonclinical Study Reports.
Nonclinical study reports providing information about the safety and efficacy of a drug or device in non-human subjects. This data must be included in an IND application and should include any relevant safety information regarding the product.
14. Investigational Medicinal Product Dossier (IMPD).
The Investigational Medicinal Product Dossier (IMPD) and/or Common Technical Document (CTD) are documents used to provide a comprehensive overview of the clinical data related to a drug or device. These documents should include any relevant safety information regarding the product and must be submitted as part of an IND application.
15. Clinical Trial Authorization/Investigational Product Determination (CTA/IPD).
The Clinical Trial Authorization (CTA)/Investigational Product Determination (IPD) or Protocol Authorization is a document that is used to authorize the use of a drug or device in clinical trials. This document must be completed and submitted to the regulatory authorities as part of an IND application. It should include any relevant safety information about the product, as well as any applicable regulations or guidelines for conducting clinical trials.
