Investigational New Drug Approval of Potential COVID-19 Medication by FDA
EuTech Scientific Services, Inc.’s (EuTech) experienced team has worked hand-in-hand with IHP Therapeutics (IHP) to perform a complete characterization of their biological drug IHP-009 to ensure that it meets FDA regulations.
The characterization data submitted to the FDA resulted in IND approval of IHP-009 in March of 2021.
Characterization of biologics is different than small molecules that has a well-defined structure. Biologics are very large in size, and their structure identifications have to include inherent variability associated with being of biological origin.
“Our team is honored to be a trusted lab of choice to perform complete characterization of a biological drug in a timely manner to ensure sensitive worldwide Covid-19 cure development progress,” said Dr. Raghvendra Sahai, President, ARL-EuTech Scientific Services, Inc.
