The main objectives of the drugs and cosmetic acts 1940, is to regulate the import, manufacture, distribution and sale of drugs & cosmetics in the country
It also ensure that the drugs that are available to the people are safe and efficacious and the cosmetics marketed are safe for use
Schedule Y
It’s a law
Not merely a
Guideline
Schedule Y ,the current regulator (of CDSCO), enforced
law in India has been established under Drug and
Cosmetic Act,1945.
The regulations to be followed when conducting
Clinical Trial.
Schedule Y – requirements and guidelines for
permission to import and/or manufacture of new drugs
for sale or to undertake clinical trial
Date 20 January, 2005
To frame guidelines for the current scenario of Clinical
research.
CDSCO and DTAB formulated GCP under Schedule Y in 2005.
Schedule Y 1988 relevant to predominantly generic industry.
GCP trials since 1995, and arrival of IPR regime in 2005.
Integration of India in global clinical development and legal
support to GCP guidelines.
Improvements in quality of clinical trials.
It has outlined extensive study criteria in line with the
globally accepted formats such as ICH and US FDA guidelines
122A - Application for permission to import new drug
122 B - Application for approval to manufacture new drug
122 D -Permission to import or manufacture FDC
122 DA- Permission to conduct clinical trials for New Drug / Investigational New Drug
122 DAA –Definition Of “CLINICAL TRIAL”
“Clinical trial” - a systematic study of new drug(s) in human subject(s) to generate data for discovering and / or verifying the clinical, pharmacological effect (including pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic) and /or adverse effects with the objective of determining safety and / or efficacy of the new drug.
122-E
Definition of new drugs
Not been used in the country under labeling conditionsApproved but now proposed to be marketed with modified or new claims – indications, dosage, dosage form , route of administration , FDC , individually approved to be combined for the first time in a fixed ratio or if ratio is changed

8. Special studiesSummaryBio-availability / Bio-equivalence.Study on special group of population e.g. geriatrics, pediatrics , pregnant or nursing women
Geriatrics
•Geriatric patients should be included in Phase III clinical trials (and in Phase II trials, at the Sponsor's option) in meaningful numbers, •If the disease intended to be treated is characteristically a disease of aging; or
the population to be treated is known to include substantial numbers of geriatric patients;
The pediatric studies should include -clinical trials, relative bioequivalence comparisons of the pediatric formulation with the adult formulation performed in adultsdefinitive pharmacokinetic studies for dose selection across the age ranges of pediatric patients in whom the drug is likely to be used. These studies should be conducted in the pediatric patient population with the disease under study
The timing of pediatric studies in the new drug development program will depend on the medicinal product, the type of disease being treated, safety considerations, and the efficacy and safety of available treatments.
Pediatrics
Pregnant or Nursing Women
•Pregnant or nursing women should be included in clinical trials only when the drug is intended for use by
pregnant/nursing women or fetuses/nursing infants and where the data generated from women who are not pregnant or nursing, is not suitable.
•For new drugs intended for use during pregnancy, follow-up data (pertaining to a period appropriate for that drug) on the pregnancy, fetus and child will be required.
9. Regulatory status in other countries9.1 countries where the drug is
a. marketedb. Approvedc. approved as INDd. withdrawn, if any , with reason
9.2 restriction use, if any , in countries where marketed/ approved9.3 free sale certificate or certificate of analysis , as appropriate.

General Principles
◦ Specific and general pharmacological studies should be conducted to support the use of therapeutics in human
◦ Safety pharmacological studies investigates potential undesirable pharmacodynamic effect of as substance on physiological function in relation to exposer within the therapeutic range or above.
Specific Pharmacological Actions
Are those which demonstrate the therapeutic potential for humans.
General pharmacological Actions
Essential Safety Pharmacology
To study the effect of the test drug on vital functions such as cardiovascular, respiratory and central nervous system are studied
Supplemental Safety Pharmacology StudiesInvestigation of the adverse pharmacological effect that are not assessed in the in the essential safety pharmacological studies and are a cause for concern
Urinary SystemIncludes urine volume, specific gravity , osmolality, pH , proteins, cytology, and blood urea nitrogen , creatinine , plasma protein estimation .
Autonomic Nervous System Binding to receptor relevant to ANS and functional response to agonist or antagonist responses in in vitro or in vivo.

Combination therapy with two or more agents having complementary mechanism of action is an example of incremental innovation that may extend the range of therapeutic options in the treatment of almost every human disease
Fixed dose combination(FDC) fall into four categories
A. one or more of the active ingredients is a new drugs
B. First time combination of individually approved/marketed drugs, where the ingredients are likely to have significant interaction of a pharmacodynamic or pharmacokinetic nature
C. Combination already marketed, but in which it is proposed either to change the ratio of active ingredients or to make new therapeutic claim
D. Combined only for the purpose of convenience

Stability testing is to be performed to provide evidence on how the
quality of the drug substance or formulation varies with time under
influence of environmental factors such as temperature , humidity ,
and light , and to establish shelf life for the formulation and
recommended storage condition
It includes testing of those attributes of the drug that are susceptible to
change during storage and are likely to influence quality , safety and /
or efficacy .
