Full evaluation route registration guide
Follow this guide for documentary requirements, fees and turn-around-time to register your cell, tissue or gene therapy products (CTGTP) via the full evaluation route.

Application checklists
Each application must be accompanied by an application checklist, completed by the applicant and attached in the online application form.
Use one of the following application checklists based on your choice of CTD format. Each checklist provides details on the specific documents that need to be submitted with your application.
Note: Your choice of CTD format submitted for NDA will determine the submission format for the rest of your product life cycle. This means that future applications for changes to your registered product (variation application) will have to be in the same CTD format.
