A Clear Path to Market Approval
Regulatory affairs is where drug development succeeds or stalls. Our regulatory team ensures clinical studies and product submissions comply with the frameworks of every target market — minimizing delays, protecting study participants, and giving your product a clear, defensible path to approval.
We provide strategic advice and hands-on execution throughout the lifecycle: planning, gap analysis, dossier compilation, submission, query management, and post-market surveillance — across India, the US, Europe, Brazil, and emerging markets.
End-to-End Regulatory Support
Six service lines that carry a product from regulatory strategy to approval — and keep it compliant after launch.
Dossier Preparation (CTD / eCTD / ACTD)
Module 1–5 compilation, gap analysis, and format adaptation for each target agency — submission-ready the first time.
India: DCGI & CDSCO Submissions
Clinical trial applications, BE study NOCs, new drug approvals, and licensing under the NDCT Rules, 2019.
Global Submissions
US FDA, EMA, ANVISA, and Asian market filings — one core dossier, adapted market by market.
Regulatory Gap Analysis
Systematic review of existing data against target market requirements before you commit to a submission.
PK/PD Integration
Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic evidence woven into the development program to strengthen approval chances.
Lifecycle Management
Variations, renewals, labelling updates, and query responses — support that continues after approval.
CTD vs eCTD vs ACTD — What's the Difference?
Three dossier formats, one goal. Which one your submission needs depends entirely on the market you are filing in — and we prepare all three.
| Aspect | CTD | eCTD | ACTD |
|---|---|---|---|
| Format | Paper / PDF, 5 modules (ICH M4) | Electronic, XML backbone, 5 modules | 4 parts, ASEAN structure |
| Where used | India, ROW markets | US FDA, EMA (mandatory) | ASEAN member countries |
| Lifecycle handling | Manual resubmissions | Sequence-based electronic updates | Per-country variation rules |
| Our support | Full compilation | Compilation & publishing | Format adaptation |

Most regulatory consultants have never stood on a production floor. Celesta Healthcare works with WHO-GMP manufacturing every day — batch records, stability data, process validation, CMC documentation. That manufacturing-side fluency makes our quality dossiers faster to compile and harder to question, and it is something pure consulting firms cannot offer.
