How we can help you carry out your regulatory framework analysis

Alcimed assits its clients in analyzing the regulations related to their activities. The launch of a new product or a new service requires an in-depth analysis of market access conditions, including an inventory of the legal constraints (authorizations, approvals, certifications, etc.) that define what can or cannot be done. As the regulatory framework is constantly evolving, Alcimed also helps its clients prepare for changes in the current legislation in their markets, in order to prevent threats and anticipate opportunities.

SOME EXAMPLES OF REGULATORY FRAMEWORK ANALYSIS FOR OUR CLIENTS

Regulatory framework analysis of the accessibility of orphan drugs

We supported a pharmaceutical industry player in understanding the fundamental factors of market access for orphan drugs in 9 emerging countries. Through an internal review of the current state of knowledge, then collecting missing information in terms of market and regulatory framework analysis in particular, Alcimed enabled its client to obtain an overview of orphan drug regulations in emerging countries and to classify these countries according to their level of accessibility.

Regulatory framework analysis of the development of new cannabis/CBD-based products

We helped the R&D team of a leading food and beverage company to understand the current legislation regarding the use of CBD and cannabis in food and beverages, with the aim of developing new products for the European and North American markets. After a first step of exploring the target markets (trends, existing products on the market, health claims, legislative framework, etc.) we characterized the regulations (current or future) in a selection of countries through an in-depth literature analysis and targeted interviews (regulators, experts). This work enabled our client’s R&D team to define a framework for the development of new CBD-based products.

Regulatory decipher : market access strategy for syringes in China
