Labeling and Advertising Materials for Human Prescription Drugs (eCTD
format accepted for submissions to the OPDP with the 2253 formfrom 15th June 2015)
If you are an user of eCTDmanager from Extedo, new FDA module 1 is already
incorporated since version SP10, and your ongoing FDA dossier can be updated in a very simple way
Once the module 1 for FDA has been upgraded in your dossier, the sequence has to be
validated with the new FDA-eCTD validation criteria (v3.3) and the dossier
lifecycle must continue with this new module 1.
