Regulatory Submission

Ensure Compliance with High-Quality SEND Data for Faster Submission Preparation

The Importance of High-Quality SEND Data in Regulatory Submissions

In today’s regulatory landscape, the ability to submit high-quality data quickly is essential to achieving timely and successful approvals. The Standard for Exchange of Nonclinical Data (SEND) has become a critical requirement for regulatory submissions, enabling the FDA and other regulatory bodies to review preclinical data in a standardized format. As regulatory demands continue to evolve, ensuring SEND compliance is no longer just a matter of formatting; it’s essential for data integrity, consistency, and transparency throughout the entire submission process.

Instem’s Regulatory Submission Solutions provide end-to-end support for generating, converting, and validating SEND-compliant datasets. By prioritizing quality and consistency, Instem’s SEND tools help organizations ensure their data is always ready for regulatory review, significantly reducing the risk of delays, rejections, or resubmissions. With a complete suite that includes SEND Services and Submit™ software, Instem empowers research organizations to deliver accurate, high-quality datasets quickly and with confidence.

Why High-Quality SEND Data is Essential for Regulatory Success

Accurate SEND datasets not only facilitate regulatory review but also support the integrity and reproducibility of your study data. The FDA and other agencies rely on quality, standardized SEND datasets to streamline their review processes, allowing them to quickly access, interpret, and validate the data. Poor-quality or non-compliant SEND datasets can result in requests for additional data or re-submission, causing costly delays that ultimately slow down the path to market.

Instem’s SEND solutions are designed to meet these high standards, helping clients eliminate common SEND data issues by providing meticulous data validation, preparation, and submission support. By ensuring your datasets meet regulatory expectations from the outset, Instem minimizes risk and facilitates a smoother, faster review process for your submissions.

Instem’s SEND Suite for Regulatory Submission

Instem’s Regulatory Submission solutions consist of two core offerings: SEND Advantage Services and Submit™ software. Together, these tools provide a comprehensive approach to SEND data management, allowing organizations to generate, validate, and submit SEND datasets on their own or with the help of Instem’s SEND conversion experts. Both solutions provide researchers an easy and reliable option for supporting the creation of accurate, consistent, and regulatory-ready datasets that minimize risk and accelerate approvals.
