Drug Regulation

The standard format for a drug product application in all markets is based on the Common Technical Document (CTD), where API information is included in part 3, section 2 entitled "Drug Substance." In addition, a Drug Master File (DMF) or Active Substance Master File (ASMF) submission procedure is required in most markets. Currently TAPI holds 286 US DMFs, 296 EU DMFs and 118 CEPs. This high number of submissions reflects the proven expertise of the TAPI RA team in the area of regulatory requirements. We continuously strive to learn from experience in order to improve our DMFs and optimize our product application processes for the benefit of our customers.

Drug Research & Development

Research & development is the fuel that sustains TAPI's leadership position. The R&D group at TAPI comprises a dedicated team of over 760 top scientists located in seven development centers worldwide. Our scientists specialize in the fields of chemical synthesis, fermentation, high potency, plant extraction, synthetic peptides, vitamin D derivatives, prostaglandins, and analytical and solid-state R&D.
Our profound ongoing investment in research & development generates a steady flow of API compounds, enabling the timely introduction of pharmaceutical products to market. Given the industry’s cost-conscious nature, about 50% of our R&D is dedicated to cost reduction through process efficiency and automation, empowering our customers to remain competitive in the global marketplace.

We achieve high levels of compliance via regular internal & external audits of all our manufacturing sites as well as continuous quality improvement according to emerging industry trends. We also ensure that our suppliers comply with quality regulations and standards through periodic audits of their facilities.
