Strategic FDA Engagement & Submission Excellence

Accelerate development. Reduce regulatory risk. Strengthen agency alignment.

From early FDA engagement through NDA submission, successful development programs require more than documentation, they require a strategic and thoughtful approach. Our regulatory experts partner with sponsors to design, prepare for, and execute high-quality FDA meeting and submissions that stand up to agency scrutiny.

If you’re preparing for a Pre-IND meeting, filing an IND, or advancing toward NDA submission, we help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

The ProPharma Difference

Regulatory milestones require more than functional support; they require experienced leadership grounded in science and real-world FDA insight. ProPharma delivers strategic, science-first regulatory guidance across every phase of development, helping sponsors anticipate challenges, align with FDA's expectations, and advance their programs with clarity.

Our approach is defined by:

  • Deep FDA and global regulatory experience across therapeutic areas and product types
  • Integrated scientific, clinical, and CMC expertise that ensures cohesive strategy
  • Proven success navigating complex regulatory pathways from early development through approval
  • Practical, actionable guidance informed by current agency expectations
  • End-to-end lifecycle support, from Pre-IND strategy through NDA submission and beyond

Whether you are an emerging company preparing your first Pre-IND meeting or an established sponsor advancing toward NDA approval, ProPharma provides senior-level regulatory leadership tailored to the complexity and risk profile of your program.

Over the last ten years, more than 99% of the applications we have submitted to FDA have been approved. This includes more than seven NDAs and 20 INDs.

Pre-IND Meeting Support 

Establish the Right Foundation for Clinical Development

A Pre-IND meeting is a pivotal inflection point in development. The quality of preparation directly influences FDA alignment, development expectations, and long-term program viability.

Our objective is not simply to obtain FDA feedback, but to secure clear, actionable alignment that strengthens your path to IND submission and long-term development success, ultimately helping you reach the next milestone in your product's development.

ProPharma supports sponsors with:

  • Regulatory strategy development and positioning
  • Pre-IND gap assessments
  • Strategic briefing package development
  • Cross-functional alignment across CMC, nonclinical, and clinical disciplines
  • Development of focused, high-impact FDA questions
  • Executive-level mock meeting preparation
  • Post-meeting analysis and regulatory action planning

Investigational New Drug (IND) Submission Services

Move from Strategy to Clinical Execution

An IND submission must demonstrate scientific rigor, operational readiness, and a coherent regulatory narrative. FDA’s 30-day safety review leaves little room for ambiguity.

Our team of regulatory experts approach IND submissions with a proactive mindset, starting with the end in mind. We anticipate potential FDA concerns and address them before they become delays.

ProPharma's IND submission support includes:

  • End-to-end IND regulatory strategy development
  • Module-level content development and review
  • CMC regulatory oversight and readiness assessment
  • Nonclinical and clinical strategy alignment
  • eCTD publishing and technical validation
  • Cross-functional submission management
  • FDA information request and clinical hold response support

New Drug Application (NDA) Strategy & Submissions

From Data to Approval Strategy. Your Partner at Every Step.

NDA success depends on more than compiling data. It is the culmination of your development strategy and the foundation of your product’s commercial future. It requires a cohesive regulatory narrative that supports benefit-risk, labeling strategy, and long-term lifecycle planning.

Our team of NDA submission experts focus on clarity, defensibility, and alignment. With more than 40 years' experience preparing and submitting applications to FDA, we ensure your submission tells a compelling story founded in scientifically rigorous data.

  • Develop comprehensive NDA filing strategy
  • Prepare for and lead Pre-NDA meetings
  • Craft integrated summaries (ISS/ISE) with regulatory clarity
  • Align clinical, statistical, and safety narratives
  • Develop labeling strategy and negotiation positioning
  • Manage Module 2–5 authoring and review
  • Provide full eCTD publishing and lifecycle management
  • Support Advisory Committee preparation
  • Lead FDA deficiency and information request responses

Advance with Confidence

In today's evolving regulatory environment, early alignment, cross-functional governance, and proactive agency engagement are not advantages, they are necessities.

ProPharma helps sponsors design globally aligned, approval-ready development programs from Pre-IND strategy through NDA submission and beyond.
