Products We Support

Products We Support

Our regulatory expertise covers a wide range of biological and biotech products, including:

Biological & Biotech Products

  • Vaccines
  • Biosimilars
  • Recombinant proteins
  • Monoclonal antibodies
  • Blood and plasma-derived products
  • Advanced biotechnology therapies

Each product category is evaluated individually to determine the most appropriate SFDA registration pathway.

Regulatory Support Model

Our Regulatory Support Model

We follow a structured and client-centric regulatory approach designed to simplify complex biological registrations:

Regulatory Assessment & Strategy

We begin with a detailed review of the product, manufacturing process, and global approval status to define the most suitable SFDA submission route.

Dossier Development & Review

Our team supports the preparation, review, and gap analysis of CTD dossiers, with particular focus on quality (CMC), non-clinical, and clinical data, which are critical for biologicals.

SFDA Submission & Review Management

We manage online submissions through SFDA systems and handle all regulatory communication, including scientific queries and clarification requests.

GMP & Quality Compliance Support

Biological products often require enhanced GMP evidence, manufacturing site information, and cold chain documentation. We help ensure readiness for inspections and compliance reviews.

Post-Approval & Lifecycle Management

Support continues beyond approval, including variations, renewals, and ongoing regulatory compliance.
