QP Batch Certification & EU Release

Where Clinical Manufacturers/Sponsors wish to supply an EU clinical trial with IMP, each batch needs to have a QP batch certificate issued by an EU QP.

Rather than establishing a company in the EU, Manufacturers/Sponsors have the option of outsourcing this batch certification step to a specialist company such as Rexpharma.

QP Batch Certification of human IMP on behalf of third party Clients is the core service at Rexpharma.

Outsourcing with Rexpharma saves Clients the difficulty, expense, and challenge of:

QP Declarations & Regulatory Support

For your Clinical Trial Application (CTA) in the EU, your regulatory function will require an EU QP to issue a QP Declaration for the regulatory application.

This QP Declaration is document that outlines all non-EU manufacturers and quality control facilities have been assessed and found to be equivalent to EU facilities (from a GMP perspective).

It is key to work with your EU QP to ensure all audits are in place and acceptable to allow for QP Declaration issuance.

Frequently asked questions

What do you do at Rexpharma?

We are clinical specialists that provide small-to-medium size businesses access to the EU for their new/existing clinical trials. We do this by adding your drug(s) to our in-house license (IMP MIA) and our QPs get your products into trials by certifying for release in the EU/ROW.

We support your regulatory applications with in-house QP Declarations needed for your Clinical Trial Application/Variations.

We manage your supply chain and provide bespoke audit services to you company and supplier network to ensure EU compliance, as well as training and Quality/QP support on your projects.

We are a small company, what is your preferred scale of client?
