An Update of the Brazilian Regulatory Bioequivalence Recommendations for Approval of Generic Topical Dermatological Drug Products
Journal Title: The AAPS Journal - Year 2015, Vol 17, Issue 6
Abstract
This note aims to clarify the Brazilian regulatory bioequivalence recommendations for approval of generic topical dermatological drug products, since the legal framework of the “Brazilian Health Surveillance Agency” (ANVISA) is only available in Portuguese. According to Resolutions RE n. 1170 (December 19th 2006) and RDC n. 37 (August 3rd 2011) in Brazil, only in vitro studies are required for registration of generic topical dermatological drug products. Current Regulatory Agenda of ANVISA, which contains possible future resolutions to be revised over 2015–2016, includes a discussion on biowaiver requirements and on possible in vitro and in vivo comparability tests for these products.
