Preclinical Studies for Drug Registration in Russia

Current Russian regulations require quite comprehensive preclinical study program for every pharmaceutical submitted for state registration. Preclinical study report in any case should contain following points:

Acute toxicity study
Subacute and/or subchronic toxicity study
Local tolerance study
Specific preclinical studies depending on product class

One should keep in mind that for generic products or biosimilar those studies should be comparative vs original product.

It is not obligatory to conduct that set of preclinical studies in Russia, nevertheless most applicants conduct such studies locally with help of experienced CRO in Russian centers. The reason is simple – like for clinical studies there are MoH-approved guidelines for conduction of preclinical study for majority of clinical pharmacology product classes, specific requirements in normative regulatory base as well as locally established GLP standard in Russia.

Our specialists has extensive experience in managing preclinical studies in Russia with contacts in all GLP-compliant study centers in Russia. We would be glad to help you with fast and free calculation of preclinical study budget and timeline. Also our consultation concering conduction of preclinical studies for registration and available options to choose will be granted to you. Our experts will discuss every details of your project and in any case you will receive working solution that will bring you clear picture to proceed with your project safely.

Preclinical studies for biopharma products (original biopharmaceuticals, biosimilars, vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, immunoglobulins, biopharmaceutical orphan drugs) by regulatory CRO Pharegis in Russia

Registration of biopharmaceutical drugs in Russia

assumes quite complex set of activities. Due to strict and spedific regulatory requirements in Russia to biopharmaceuticals e.g. biosimilar products, in particular, completed preclinical studies program that is needed in frames of registration dossier for a biopharmaceutical product can be much more sophisticated and challenging than set of standard tests for an original “traditional” pharmaceutical.

Depending of type and clinical pharmacology class of biopharmaceutical product, its preclinical programs should have following studies:

Pharmacodynamics - in vitro and/or in vivo
Pharmacokinetics - in vitro and/or in vivo
Immunogenicity
Immunotoxicity
Safety pharmacology for key systems of organs
Reproductive toxicity
Cancerogenicity
Mutagenicity
Drug interaction safety
Other specific studies

Specific preclinical program is required for registration of new vaccines in Russia.

For biotechnological medicines like monoclonal antibodies, recombinant protein-based pharmaceuticals and other product produced by cell lines, it is needed to present quality confirming documents for every stage of cell bank growth and purification as well as every source material used in biotechnological manufacturing.

Our experts have comprehensive experience in managing and conduction of preclinical studies programs for biopharmaceuticals in various GLP-compliant centers all over Russian Federation. Also we can analyze your existing preclinical studies portfolio, advising best way to handle specific studies missing for registration in Russia.

Preclinical studies, in vitro studies for drugs, generics and biopharmaceuticals by regulatory CRO Pharegis in Russia

In Vitro Preclinical Studies in Russia

are commonly used for several procedures like addition of new dosage (that require new registration procedure)

Biowaver testing (test of comparative dissolution kinetics of drugs) for every dosage of a pharmaceutical to be registered;
Comparative studies of antibiotic activity;
Microbiology studies;
Viral safety studies;
Additional pharmacokinetic variables assessment as part of a clinical study;
Patient genotyping for highly-variable metabolism pharmaceuticals in frames of bioequivalence or therapeutical equivalence studies;
Pharmacogenetic studies.
