IND/CTA Module Development (CTD 2.5, 2.7) – Regulatory Summaries
CTD Modules 2.5 (Clinical Overview) and 2.7 (Clinical Summary) are critical components of your regulatory submission that synthesize and interpret the entire clinical development program. These high-level summaries directly influence regulatory decision-making and require expert scientific writing with deep understanding of regulatory expectations.
Editverse provides comprehensive CTD Module 2.5 and 2.7 development services delivered by experienced regulatory medical writers who understand what health authorities need to see for efficient review and approval.
📋 Understanding CTD Module 2.5 and 2.7

| 2.7.1 Summary of Biopharmaceutics & PK | ADME, bioavailability, drug interactions, special populations PK | 50-150 pages |
| 2.7.2 Summary of Clinical Pharmacology | Pharmacodynamics, dose-response, PK/PD relationships | 30-100 pages |
| 2.7.3 Summary of Clinical Efficacy | Efficacy data synthesis across all studies, subgroup analyses | 100-300 pages |
| 2.7.4 Summary of Clinical Safety | Pooled safety analysis, ISS integration, risk characterization | 150-400 pages |
| 2.7.5 Literature References | Published literature supporting clinical sections | Variable |
| 2.7.6 Individual Study Synopses | Tabular synopses of all clinical studies | Variable |
