16: Regulatory Science Flashcards
in terms of health care costs, what gets more spending, maintenance of good health or treating late stage diseases
treating late stage diseases
4 steps in the process of discovery
basic research
translational research
applied research
apply to consumers for cures, treatments, and prevention
sources of new drugs may come from
new chemical entity by organic synthesis
lead compound modifications to already existing compounds
natural sources like plants and animals
genetic developments
3 aspects of the genetic field of drug development
recombinant DNA
monoclonal antibodies
human gene therapy
_________ is a technology that uses enzymes to cut and paste together DNA sequences of interest. these pieces are then put into vectors to be expressed by host cells
recombinant DNA
what kind of genetics based drugs can be used to detect HCG
monoclonal antibody
what is included in the research and development stage of drug development
finding intrinsic dissolution, solubility, physiochemical properties, etc
what is the last step in the early development of drugs
provisional BCS classification
Directly relates to the tendency of a substance to prefer one phase (liquid, solid, gas) over another
a measure of the “real” partial pressure or pressure of a gas in comparison to ideal gas
fugacity
liquid crystal ____ ratio may be used as a surrogate parameter for intestinal permeability
fugacity
when there is a health claim, the product must be a ____ or ____
NHP or non-Rx drug
______: use in the diagnosis, treatment, mitigation or prevention of a disease, disorder or abnormal physical state or its symptoms
drugs
define a NHP
A substance or combination of substances set out on Schedule 1 of the Regulations, a homeopathic medicine or a traditional medicine, that is manufactured, sold or represented for use in:
The diagnosis, treatment mitigation or prevention of a disease, disorder or abnormal physical state or its symptoms in humans
Restoring or correcting organic functions in humans; or
Modifying organic functions in humans, such as modifying those functions in a manner that maintains or promotes health.
what medications are suitable for self care
non-Rx
what are not NHPs
schedule 2 excluded substances like radiopharmaceuticals and biologics
main factors for determining if a product is a NHP, non-Rx, or cosmetic
presence of health claim
ingredients
how many years on average, from early lab testing, does it take for a new drug to be approved for general public
8-9 years
what are INDs
investigational new drug
T or F: a IND only includes small molecule drugs, not biological products
F- includes biological products used in vitro for diagnostic purposes
tendency of a substance to prefer one phase over another
fugacity
octanol fugacity is a surrogate for
membrane permeability
food and drugs act catagories
medical cannabis regulation food and drug regulations medical devices regulations NHP regulations cosmetics regulations
