Simplification of the regulatory processes and adhering to common fundamentals for managing post-approval changes would enable international collaboration and cooperation towards regulatory convergence and consequentially speed to market of quality medicines. This can be achieved by harmonized change classifications, leveraging scientific risk-based principles for regulatory evaluations and decision making, adherence to defined and predictable review timelines, collaboration and open dialogues between Industry and Regulators as well as the use of novel regulatory, and scientific tools and practices.
