INTRODUCTION
eCTD
WHAT IS eCTD?
Electronic Common Technical Document
Common Technical Document Common format for Quality,
Safety, and Efficacy information
Electronic CTD = ectd An interface for industry to agency transfer of
regulatory information
It is composed of:
Directory structure
Content files
XML eCTD instance
Electronic
submission
eCTD
17
SCOPE OF eCTD
CTD scope + Module 1CTD:
Registration applications for new pharmaceuticals (including
biotechnology-derived products)
Module 1: Regional Administrative Information and Prescribing
Information
Regional scope may vary beyond CTD scope
Investigational New Drug,
Drug Master File / Active Substance Master File, and etc.
18
HISTORY
Regional reviewer driven
o1980s :-Early activities in US in 1980s
o1990s : -Computer Aided New Drug Application (CANDAs)-eNDA Guideline-DAMOS in Germany,
MANSEV in France
Harmonization
o1997:-M2 EWG start working closely with M4 (CTD)
o2003 : -ICH eCTD Guideline v3.0
Implementation
o2004 : -ICH eCTD Guideline v3.2 implemented in all ICH regions
o2008 : -ICH eCTD Guideline v3.2.2-All electronic submissions must be in eCTD format in US
o2010 :-Mandatory eCTD for the Centralised Procedure in EU.

WHY eCTD?
Expectation
oHigh availability
oEasy view / navigation
oFast retrieval
oLifecycle support
oLess paper
Results
oExpected advantages have been met.
oContribute to improvement of:Data quality
Reusability
Faster access
20
CHALLENGES
Advantages sometimes perceived as
disadvantages
Granularity
PDFs
Hyperlinks
21
FUTURE
eCTD v4.0
Specification
HL7 RPS (Regulated Product Submission) will be used for
message
exchange
ICH M4 CTD and Granularity Document will remain as dossier
structure
PDF will remain as major document format
22
eCTD v4.0
Benefits
1. Broader scope and standardization
2. Interoperability
Challenges
3. Need to understand HL7 process / methodology
4. Will require new tools
5. Regional requirements in the scope of SDO standardization
