This week, 2 FDA Consumer Safety Officers (CSOs) conducted a routine CGMP inspection at our company, BioPharmaDev, Inc. (a CRO company providing third-party high-quality analytical testing services for pharmaceutical, Biotech, medical device, and nutrition supplement companies). We are very happy to announce that the FDA CSOs did not issue a Form FDA-483 as a result of the inspection. This indicates we have no deficiencies or no any Inspection Observations. Our facility is at the best cGMP compliance classification of No Action Indicated (NAI) as defined and published in the FDA’s Inspection Classification Database.

We are very proud of ourselves for this excellent achievement. This is the 3rd FDA inspection since the beginning of our business in 2012. The first FDA’s inspection was in 2017 with one minor observation. The 2nd FDA’s inspection was in 2018 with no observation or deficiency.

We sincerely thank Dr. Yan-Bo Yang, Dr. Gary Xu, Dr. Mai Zhou, and Mrs. Yan Zou for their hard work and dedication. Most importantly, we thank many of you (our family members, our dear friends, and our clients) for providing long-term support, making great contributions and providing help. This could not happen without your involvement.
