NEW DRUG APPLICATION NDA stands for " New Drug Application " It is an Application submitted by the sponsor to regulatory authorities, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), seeking approval to market and sell a new pharmaceutical drug. The NDA includes data from preclinical and clinical studies , as well as information on the drug's safety, efficacy, and manufacturing processes. Approval of an NDA is necessary before the drug can be commercially available to the public.

What are New Drugs A drug that contains a new chemical entity as its active ingredient would be considered as a new drug. A drug’s recommended new use or change in recommended dosage, dosage form or route of administration also can be considered to be a new drug.
Goals of NDA The goals of the New Drug Application (NDA ) are to provide enough information to permit FDA reviewers to establish the following: Is the drug safe and effective in its proposed use and do the benefits outweigh the risks ? Is the proposed labelling (package inset) is appropriate and what should it contain ? Are the methods used in manufacturing – GMP (Good Manufacturing practice) and the controls used to maintain drug’s quality adequate to preserve its identity, strength, quality and purity.
NDA FORMS 1. Form FDA-356h Application to Market a New Drug, Biologic or an Antibiotic drug for Human use. It includes: Applicant information Product/Manufacturing information Pre-clinical studies Clinical studies Labelling
NDA FORMS 2. Form FDA-3397 User fee cover sheet FDA has the authority to collect user fees for certain drugs and biologics license applications. Pharmaceutical companies pay for the review of certain new drugs, biologics or supplements. User fee cover provide necessary information that help to determine whether a fee is applicable or not It also helps FDA to track payments.
NDA FORMS 3. Form FDA-3331 NDA Field Alert Report FAR (Field Alert Report) is submitted to the FDA when the drug is already distributed in the market and the manufacturer become aware of any information that can affect the identity, quality, strength or potency of the drug.

FDA Drug Approval Process The documentation required in an NDA is supposed to tell the drug’s whole story, including: what happened during the clinical tests, what the ingredients of the drug formulation are, the results of the animal studies, how the drug behaves in the body, and how it is manufactured, processed and packaged . Once the Application is submitted, FDA has 60 days to conduct preliminary review which assess whether the NDA is “sufficiently complete to permit a substantive review” . If everything is acceptable FDA decide if the NDA will get standard or accelerated review and communicate the acceptance and review choice in another communication known as 74-day letter. A standard review may take 10 months for decision by FDA reviewers while the decision is made within 6 months in accelerated review.
