Clinical development, FDA Guidance Documents

The purpose of this guidance is to assist sponsors of drug and biological products for the treatment or prevention of rare diseases in conducting more efficient and successful drug development programs. Although the statutory requirements for marketing approval for drugs to treat rare and common diseases are the same and issues discussed here are encountered in other drug development programs, these issues are frequently more difficult to address in the context of a rare disease.

FDA’s evaluation of the safety of drug products often requires combining and summarizing information from multiple sources, and meta-analysis is a useful tool for this purpose. This document provides guidance on the use of meta-analyses of randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) to evaluate the safety of human drugs or biological products in the context of FDA’s regulatory decision-making.

Clinical science, FDA Guidance Documents

According to Scott Gottlieb, M.D., FDA Commissioner, one of the most promising ways to make drug development more efficient is by developing the science around innovative approaches to the design of clinical trials. Here Gottlieb introduces two new Guidance documents intended to do this – “Hematologic Malignancies: Regulatory Considerations for Use of Minimal Residual Disease in Development of Drug and Biological Products for Treatment” and “Developing Targeted Therapies in Low-Frequency Molecular Subsets of a Disease.” (medcitynews.com)
