Verified Clinical Benefit | Infectious Disease Accelerated Approvals (excluding vaccines)
This listing includes accelerated approvals (AAs) for infectious disease indications with postmarketing trials that have verified clinical benefit and for which traditional approval has been subsequently granted for the specific indication.
Please refer to Drugs@FDA for the latest approvals and prescribing information for specific products. See Postmarket Requirements and Commitments for the status of specific requirements.
Visit Accelerated Approvals for listings of ongoing, verified clinical benefit, and withdrawn infectious diseases and non-malignant hematological, neurological, and other disorder indications accelerated approvals.
Indications may remain on this page until FDA updates product labeling or publishes a Federal Register notice regarding a change in status.
Total approval time was adjusted based on management decision. This is a legacy practice and is no longer exercised.
