To regulate the Registration
to regulate the registration process between the two sides of the technical transfer by
setting up criteria on the qualification, technical standards and requirements. In the past, there was no need to carry out technical review and clinical validation before the technical transfer of the new drug , now things have been changed and the technical threshold has been improved.

To control the Risks to control the safety risks by three methods, including dynamic
control, static control and procedure control. Static Control: high risk products are not applicable for technical
transfer;
Dynamic Control: Where high risks are newly discovered, the
technical transfer shall be ceased.
Procedure Control: where safety risks are discovered during the
process of technical review, the technical transfer shall not be
approved.

To Save the Cost
The companies are able to gain the license by technical transfer, not by changing dosage forms or applying for generic drugs. By these means, the cost on research and development as well as timing could be saved, the low-level redundant production can also be reduced. The one-one transfer may also enable us to control the total number of drug approval licenses.

To initiate the review process on drug re-registration; To stick to the science-based evaluation and to
strengthen the control of risks; To use all kinds of methods to ensure transparency; To rationally allocate the resources and to improve the
efficiency of technical review.
To regulate on-site inspection for drug registration
In order to unify the standards and procedures, the provincial Food and Drug Administrations have developed the following documents for the on-site inspection for drug registration:
—implementation guidelines and working procedures
—SOPs and other requirements for inspectors
In 31 provinces of China, we have carried out 3721 on-site inspections for drug registration, among them, 1133 are for new drug applications, 1198 are for generic drug applications and 1390 are for the application on changes.
To carry out the evaluation on the implementation of GCP
To carry out the re-check on GCP clinical research institutes
To carry out on-site inspection on the clinical trials of imported drugs and to evaluate the implementation of GCP.
To initiate the review process on drug
re-registration Every province has developed a work plan
for re-registration; 3028 products got re-registered throughout
China.
To stick to the science-based evaluation and to strengthen the
control of risks To carry out the research on the CTD of generic
chemical drugs; To develop and implement the Technical
Guidelines on Drug Carcinogenicity Study; To adopt the third party validation in order to
ensure a reliable and scientific review result; To hold the specific seminars and consultations in
order to solve the common problems during the technical review, to unify the review standards and to ensure the consistency of the review result.
To use all kinds of methods to ensure transparency
To make almost 70 review cases public; To have communication with the applicants by expert consultation,
consultation meeting, video conference, teleconference, etc. When reviewing the H1N1 vaccines, technical review was organized
in a public way. The principles of public votes and public involvement were introduced in order to ensure the safety and efficacy of vaccines as well as the transparent and opened evaluation.
To use different methods such as consultation day, opening day, mailbox of the director general in order to strengthen the communication with the society, to promote the openness and transparency of technical review and to establish a “sunshine” review gradually.

Opportunities for the Development of Chinese Pharmaceutical
Industry
Policy Factors that may Affect the Pharmaceutical Industry in
2010In 2009, there are many policies related to medicines were promulgated.
In April, 2009, the new plan on medical reform was issued; In May, the Comments on the Promotion of TCM Industry was
issued; In June, the Comments on the Promotion of Biologic Products
Industry was issued; The List of Essential Medicines and the List on Medical Insurance.
——These policies have greatly stimulated the demand for medicines and the industry tended to move towards the local and village level. The concentration of the industry was encouraged and the market became larger and larger.
From 2009 to 2013, it is estimated that 17countries will boast the increase of total sale of medicines, which accounts for 90 billion US dollars and accounts for 48% of the total increase throughout the world. While in 2009, the proportion is 37%.
The great changes on the world economy, the development of health industry (improvement of medical service and increased investment), and the changed proportion between generics and innovative drugs have led to the adjustment of the market.
Anticipation of the Future Chinese Pharmaceutical Industry
In 2011, China will become the third biggest market for pharmaceuticals in the World.
Root causes of problems in pharmaceutical industry have not been resolved
Large number of small businesses and low industrial concentration
Insufficient R&D investment, low innovation ability, low proportion of high-tech products
Gap between international and domestic quality control systems and practices
Drug quality and safety incidents Lack of fair and orderly market to ensure survival
of the best low competitiveness of low value-added exported
products
Outstanding problems in pharmaceutical industry
The extensive growth mode: high input, high consumption, high pollution, high
emissions, low efficiency, low concentration and low technological level
Export volume of 2009 was 19.2 billion USD, of which 16.6 billion was raw materials, accounting for 86.24%; medicine, 1.2 billion; and biological durgs, 1.45 billion.
1299 companies which produce western medicines exported their products, including 181 foreign-fuded enterprises, accounting for 14%. However the proportion of exports accounted for 51.92%
Conclusion
In spite of the background of financial crisis, the pharmaceutical industry in China has increased and the increasing rate is higher than the common ratio of the other industry sectors.
In 2009, the strengthened legal system of drug registration as well as other important activities had greatly promoted the healthy development of Chinese pharmaceutical Industry.
