Investigational New Drug (IND) Applications: Accelerate Your Drug Development Pathway

BioBoston Consulting – Your One-Stop Solution for Life Sciences Innovation and Regulatory Excellence

Bringing a new drug or biologic to clinical trials requires careful planning, regulatory insight, and scientifically robust documentation. The Investigational New Drug (IND) Application is the FDA’s formal authorization allowing investigational drugs to be tested in human clinical studies.

At BioBoston Consulting, we guide biopharma and life sciences companies through the entire IND submission process, ensuring regulatory compliance, scientific rigor, and faster access to clinical development.

What Is an IND Application?

An IND application allows sponsors to legally ship and administer investigational drugs in FDA-approved clinical trials. It demonstrates that the proposed study is safe, ethically structured, and scientifically justified.

Key Elements of a Comprehensive IND Application:

  • Preclinical (Nonclinical) Data: Pharmacology and toxicology studies to evaluate safety before human exposure.
  • CMC (Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls): Data on drug composition, stability, and manufacturing quality.
  • Clinical Study Protocol: Trial objectives, endpoints, dosing schedules, inclusion/exclusion criteria, and safety monitoring plans.
  • Investigator’s Brochure & Informed Consent: Summarizes all preclinical/clinical data and ensures ethical compliance.
  • Regulatory Documentation: FDA Forms 1571 and 1572, investigator disclosures, and IRB approvals.

Once submitted, the FDA reviews the IND within 30 calendar days. If no concerns arise, clinical trials can commence; otherwise, the FDA may issue a clinical hold until issues are resolved.

Why IND Application Services Are Vital for Life Sciences Companies

  1. Legal Authorization for Clinical Trials
    Without an approved IND, human testing is not permitted. BioBoston Consulting ensures your submission meets all FDA regulatory requirements, enabling trials to start efficiently.
  2. Ensures Patient Safety and Scientific Rigor
    A well-prepared IND confirms drug safety, manufacturing quality, and clinical protocol integrity, protecting participants and ensuring regulatory alignment.
  3. Minimizes Risk of FDA Delays or Clinical Holds
    Errors, incomplete data, or inconsistent documentation can delay approval. BioBoston’s experts anticipate risks and optimize submissions for smooth FDA review.
