The goal is not simply to reach approval.

It is to create the right evidence, make the right decisions at the right time, and build a product with a commercially viable path from development to market.

At Luminance Health, regulatory strategy is not treated as a sequence of submissions and interactions. Instead, we plan for success by helping you build a purposeful, integrated pathway in which scientific advice, Swissmedic engagement, dossier strategy and lifecycle planning support informed decisions at every stage of development.

Scientific advice

Informed decisions at every stage of development.

Swissmedic engagement

Interactions that are planned as part of one pathway.

Dossier strategy

Dossiers that follow a clear strategy from the start.

Lifecycle planning

A pathway that reaches beyond the first approval.

Design the pathway intentionally, from the very beginning

A sequence of submissions and interactions

Without an integrated pathway, companies may face:

  • Development choices that are disconnected from commercial viability
  • Risks that are identified late
  • Resources that are not focused where they create the most value

Planning for success

Connecting development choices, CMC strategy and regulatory requirements with:

  • Commercial viability
  • Early risk reduction
  • Investment discipline
  • Clear decision gates and go/no-go points

From your challenge to a practical solution

We connect development choices, CMC strategy and regulatory requirements with a commercially viable path from development to market.

Scientific advice

Your challenge

You need to make informed decisions at every stage of development.

What we do

We help you use scientific advice as part of one integrated pathway.

  • Informed decisions at each stage
  • Link to development choices
  • Link to CMC strategy
  • Testing of assumptions

Swissmedic engagement

Your challenge

You need to engage with Swissmedic in a planned and purposeful way.

What we do

We plan the interactions with Swissmedic as part of your overall pathway.

  • Planned interactions
  • Alignment with your pathway
  • Preparation of key questions

Dossier strategy

Your challenge

Your dossier has to support both approval and a viable product.

What we do

We develop the dossier strategy together with your development and CMC choices.

  • Dossier strategy
  • CMC strategy
  • Regulatory requirements
  • Evidence that fits the pathway

Lifecycle planning

Your challenge

You need a pathway that holds beyond the first approval.

What we do

We support lifecycle planning so that decisions stay informed at every stage.

  • Lifecycle planning
  • Decision gates
  • Go/no-go points
  • Focus of resources where they create most value
