ANVISA Explains Innovative Online Optimized Assessment Project

For regulators in Brazil, the pandemic’s aftermath includes a backlog of post-approval changes, delayed by emergency development of COVID-19 vaccines and therapies, related to biologic product quality. ANVISA’s new Online Optimized Assessment Project has significantly resolved these pending requests. “The pandemic had already enabled use of online tools for remote assessment of applications and virtual meetings between ANVISA and applicants, and also helped us be closer to other reference regulatory authorities in the process of building trust,” explains project architect Elkiane Macedo Rama, an Adviser of ANVISA’s Third Directorate. “The Online Optimized Assessment Project was a way to gather all these tools in a strategy to speed up the review process of these applications.”
