This session will provide an in-depth overview and demonstration of the CMC use case within Project PRISM, illustrating progress in digital CMC submissions. Participants will see the workflow beginning with the submission of a CMC dossier in PDF format to a secure, cloud-based environment. Advanced AI tools are employed to deconstruct the PDF, extract unstructured CMC data, and convert it into a structured dataset based on a CMC data standard. The demonstration will highlight how leveraging structured data reduces manual effort and builds a foundation for faster, more reliable regulatory submissions and review.
