CMC (Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls) is one of the most critical components in any drug regulatory submission. It defines how a pharmaceutical product is developed, manufactured, and controlled to ensure quality, safety, and efficacy—making it the backbone of regulatory compliance and product approval.
What Are CMC Services?
CMC services include the documentation and technical support required to describe the drug substance (API) and drug product—from its physical and chemical characteristics to manufacturing processes, control strategies, packaging, and stability data. These are mandatory sections in IND, NDA, ANDA, and global filings.
