Barriers
Reliance on manual processes for data compilation,
review and formatting. Submission requirements
that differ by regulatory body.
Biggest unlock
Collaboration between regulators and industry to
develop frameworks and guidelines supporting the
use of Gen AI in regulatory submission.
Regulatory submission today
The increasing complexity of clinical trials produces
inefficiency, with the number of procedures per
trial growing by 60%18 over the past decade and
the length of trial submission also growing. Many
companies still rely on manual processes for
regulatory submission, leading to frequent filing
errors. Moreover, submission teams often work
in silos, leading to inconsistencies and frequent
duplication of effort.
Regulatory submission enhanced by Gen AI
In the future, Gen AI will automate many aspects
of regulatory submission and review, including
generating, organizing and validating submission
filings. Gen AI will be used to compile and structure
trials data and findings into the required formats and
then flag omissions, cross-reference as appropriate
and ensure regulatory compliance – reducing the
need for costly requests for more information. Gen
AI can also feed predictive algorithms to predict the
probability of regulatory success.Low-hanging fruit:
Regulatory submission and review 5
Moderna has launched RegBot, a solution
that uses large-language models to streamline
interactions with health authorities, reducing
the administrative burden on regulatory affairs
teams. RegBot features two main components:
an automated system for the intake and archiving of health authority enquiries and
an advanced chatbot that assists users in
navigating internal documents to draft accurate
and timely responses, further speeding up
regulatory correspondence.USE CASE
