According to a release, today, FDA’s Center for Tobacco Products (CTP) issued two notices in the Federal Register regarding its intention to launch CTP Portal Next Generation—an improved web portal for the submission of applications for certain new tobacco products—next year.
The improvements are intended to:
- Streamline electronic submission into one system for substantial equivalence (SE) reports and premarket tobacco product applications (PMTAs), amendments to previous submissions, and submission of general correspondence;
- Introduce a more efficient submission process by eliminating the need for multiple tools, including combining PDF-editing software, FDA’s eSubmitter Desktop Tool, and FDA’s CTP Portal Web application in one place;
- Provide tools to expedite data entry, guide applicants to relevant sections, and verify that the applicant has provided all required data.
No action is needed from current users of any CTP systems regarding these planned improvements. Existing CTP Portal accounts, along with any pending or in-process applications, will be automatically migrated to the new CTP Portal Next Generation.
CTP is committed to ensuring a smooth transition to CTP Portal Next Generation and will provide additional communication and support, including resources on how to use the new system, leading up to the change.
