Pre-Ind/NDA CDE Meeting Interpretation

CSOFT Health Sciences provides the highest-quality CDE meeting interpretation services from the early stages of approval through post-launch communication

Contact us now

The NMPA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDE) regulates the entry of over-the-counter and prescription drugs into Asian pharmaceutical markets, including biological therapeutics and generic drugs already approved by other regulatory bodies, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Pre-application Investigational New Drug (IND) and New Drug Application (NDA) meetings with the CDE can help establish a relationship between life science companies and the regulatory agency before approval. CSOFT Health Sciences’ expertise in interpreting and medical translation can ensure accurate and timely multilingual communication for every CDE meeting.

Benefits of pre-IND/NDA meetings with the CDE

INDs and NDAs are notoriously timely and costly. Scheduling an advance meeting can help:

  • Prioritize your application for regulatory approval
  • Provide an in-depth, contextual understanding of the CDE’s requirements
  • Ensure the regulatory agency has ample time to prepare resources for the upcoming submission

While CDE pre-IND/NDA meetings are not necessarily required, they can help save time, money, and energy in the regulatory approval process. To ensure an effective meeting, CSOFT Health Sciences’ high-quality and accurate translation is essential for clear communication and understanding between both parties.

Consecutive and Simultaneous Interpretation

Whether over the phone or on video, those needing interpretation services for their CDE meetings will have to choose between the two major methods of interpretation – consecutive or simultaneous. Consecutive interpretation is what people usually think of when they imagine an interpreter, in which the person whose speech they are translating finishes a thought before the interpreter interjects with their translation. Simultaneous, however, is done while the speaker is still talking, providing a fluid translation in time with the speaker’s speech. For companies and organizations in the life sciences, consecutive and simultaneous interpretation can mean the difference between expanding into a new market and being stopped at the regulatory level. If it is not done right, the consequences can be catastrophic.

CSOFT Health Sciences’ team of qualified interpreters has in-depth experience in the industry and an understanding of any target audience’s cultural nuances and language. Thus, we enable companies to pursue new markets while ensuring regulatory compliance and their customers’ health and safety.
