Navigating Complexity in European OTC Expansion

We recently supported the EU launch strategy of a complex fixed-combination OTC product across seven countries. The project required navigating diverse regulatory expectations, bioequivalence challenges, and promotional constraints.
Key insights included the strategic choice of an oral solution to reduce regulatory risk, the need for country-specific dossier strategies, and the grey areas surrounding direct-to-consumer promotion.
This initiative illustrates how regulatory expertise and strategic foresight can unlock access in high-risk, high-complexity environments.

Simultaneous National Scientific Advice (SNSA)

Le développement d’un médicament innovant implique souvent des zones d’incertitude réglementaire. Nous avons récemment accompagné un client dans le cadre d’un avis scientifique conjoint avec les autorités néerlandaises et belges.

Developing a new medicinal product often involves navigating complex regulatory expectations. We recently supported a client through the SNSA procedure, engaging both Dutch and Belgian authorities in a joint scientific advice meeting.
This coordinated approach enabled a comprehensive review of CMC, non-clinical, and clinical aspects—particularly where existing guidelines lacked clarity. The outcome: a clearer, more confident development path for a complex product, aligned with regulatory expectations from the outset.

Review of the SFSTP study session dedicated to nitrosamines

On December 17, 2024, our team had the opportunity to take part in the SFSTP study session dedicated to Nitrosamines—an event that proved to be a key moment in deepening our understanding of this complex and evolving regulatory topic.

The feedback session was a real success, thanks in particular to the presentation by our colleague Lorraine Balin. Her clear and insightful overview of the major regulatory developments provided valuable guidance on best practices and future directions for the pharmaceutical industry.

To extend the impact of this session, we are pleased to share a visual summary highlighting the key regulatory milestones discussed during the event. This infographic serves as a concise and educational tool to revisit the essential takeaways from a day rich in knowledge and exchange.
