SEND Implementation User Group
The Food and Drug Administration is requesting data in electronic format with IND and NDA submissions to be considered for fast track approvals. The Standard for Exchange of Nonclinical Data (SEND) Consortium is piloting a SEND Implementation Guide (IG) for DART studies. Many Teratology scientists have been involved in creating the DART SENDIG and have been collaborating in harmonizing the Fetal Pathology lexicons across many pharmaceutical companies.
