Authoring templates created by writers for writers

Creating submission-ready regulatory documents that are consistent in presentation, appropriate in content, and formatted to be eCTD compliant the first time comes with its unique challenges.

Delays are inevitable when you consider:

  • The amount of training required for the entire submission team to efficiently use Microsoft Word
  • The ever-changing world of updated ICH and regional-specific regulatory authority guidance and forms
  • Imminent changes in appearance and compliance as documents develop

To address these challenges, Certara paired its technical experts with its regulatory writers and editors to create a comprehensive eCTD Authoring Template Suite, the only template suite created by regulatory writers for regulatory writers.

With toolbar features such as automatic formatting and easy table creation/conversion, our users are spending upwards of around 50% less time on document formatting.

Reduce costly delays

Certara regulatory teams created the eCTD Authoring Template Suite based on thirty plus years of experience planning, writing, editing, and publishing hundreds of global submissions.

The numerous template features simplify document creation and review and establish a standard approach to document development across different disciplines to ensure efficiencies between writing and regulatory operations teams.

  • Instructional text with current agency guidance maintained by regulatory experts
  • Specialized toolbar containing standardized shortcuts and symbols
    • Advanced macros for one-click formatting and table management
    • Style inspector for ensuring style compliance
    • Document review tools, allowing easy visibility of changes and resolved comments
  • Access to expert advice and technical support at all steps along the way

Without all these efficiencies built into your submission process, costly delays can occur.
