1. Regulatory Query Statistical Consulting
At PHARMA-STATS, we deliver end-to-end statistical support for regulatory queries, backed by over 20 years of expertise. We’re here to help you navigate the complex regulatory landscape with confidence. Our services are tailored to handle diverse regulatory challenges, from formulation dissolution similarity to advanced analytical queries, clinical trial studies, and both bioequivalence and population bioequivalence.
2.Analytical Queries : Our team addresses agency doubts on methodology or linear analysis by offering thorough statistical insights, backed by validated data, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.
3.Clinical Trial Studies : We handle questions from regulatory authorities on clinical trial designs, providing robust responses on sample size, missing data handling, and advanced statistical techniques used, ensuring the study meets required guidelines.
4.Bioequivalence & Population Bioequivalence : For queries related to bioequivalence, we deliver comprehensive statistical analyses to clarify drug equivalence, ensuring the project aligns with regulatory expectations.
At PHARMA-STATS, we address every regulatory query with precision, ensuring your submission is aligned with the regulatory standards like FDA, EMA, MHRA, CDSCO and many more.
Here's how we make a difference:
1.Formulation Dissolution Similarity : We respond to regulatory agency queries with precise statistical methods, ensuring clear justification for the dissolution profiles, providing detailed data-driven explanations to satisfy concerns.
2. In-Vitro Convolution Modelling
At PHARMA-STATS we use mathematical models to convert in-vitro dissolution data into a form that mimics in-vivo pharmacokinetics, effectively allowing researchers to understand absorption rates, bioavailability, and overall drug efficacy without the need for early-stage human trials.Â
By integrating complex factors such as drug solubility, dissolution rate, and absorption kinetics, this method offers a detailed simulation of a drug's journey through the body, including how it’s absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted. In-vitro convolution modelling is especially valuable for evaluating formulation changes, optimizing dosage forms, and anticipating potential in-vivo challenges, making it a powerful tool in the drug development process.
Purpose : A statistical technique to predict the in-vivo performance of a drug based on in-vitro dissolution data.
Method : Integrates dissolution profiles with pharmacokinetic parameters to simulate drug behaviour in the human body, bridging laboratory and clinical outcomes.
PHARMA-STATS Role :
- Utilizes advanced statistical algorithms and software for accurate modelling.
- Assists in making informed decisions in early drug development.
PHARMA-STATS Benefits:
- Accelerates the drug development process.
- Reduces the multiple attempts of extensive in-vivo testing pilot or pivotal studies.
- Ensures regulatory compliance and acceptance.
- Increases the likelihood of successful bioequivalence studies, saving time and resources.
