The Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) established the Japan Drug Master File (JDMF), also known as the Master File (MF), to permit Japanese and foreign manufacturers of drug substances, intermediates, excipients, raw materials, and packaging materials (‘Products’) to voluntarily register confidential information about the production and management of their products in Japan.
The CaCO3 Drug Master File in Japan (CaCO3 JDMF) empowers CaCO3 API manufacturers to present comprehensive information (e.g., production methods, data, etc.) to the review authority, i.e., PMDA (Pharmaceuticals & Medical Devices Agency).
PMDA reviews the CaCO3 JDMF during the approval evaluation for pharmaceutical products. At the time of CaCO3 JDMF registration, PMDA checks if the format is accurate, if the necessary items have been included (application), and if data has been attached.
