Dear CiPA Community,
Welcome to the CiPA Quarterly Update!
We are happy to share news from the recent ICH face-to-face meeting held in November 2018. The ICH S7B/E14 Q&A concept paper and work plan have been approved! The ICH Assembly endorsed the establishment of an Implementation Working Group (IWG) to begin the process of developing a Q&A document. This IWG will build on work done by the former E14/S7B Discussion Group (DG) including work on the CiPA initiative.
The purpose of the IWG will be to provide guidance around the proposed nonclinical assays (in vitro, in silico, and in vivo). The current plan calls for a two-staged Q&A approach starting with S7B and then E14 guidance with the goal to have this be a more efficient process.
