Regulatory & Compliance
1 CMC Compilation
Relevant Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) documents have been compiled and organized to ensure data accuracy and completeness, laying a solid foundation for product registration and market access.
2. DMF Compilation and Submission
The Drug Master Files (DMFs) for Utide’s peptide APIs, Tirzepatide and Retatrutide, have been accepted by the U.S. FDA and are officially listed in the FDA DMF database (DMF Nos. 042984 and 043330, respectively), demonstrating our compliance with international regulatory standards.
3. Annual Product Reviews
Conduct annual product reviews regularly to analyze product quality, compliance, and market feedback, adjust strategies promptly, and ensure sustained alignment with regulatory requirements and market demands.
4. On-schedule Development of New GMP facility
