  • New Drug Submissions (NDS)
  • Where a Canadian Reference Product files in the 2016 format, all Abbreviated New Drug Submissions (ANDSs) and Supplements to Abbreviated New Drug Submissions (SANDSs) can also file in the XML format
  • Supplements to New Drug Submissions (SNDS), where changes are proposed to SPM format or content of the structured product monograph (SPM)
