The U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is hosting a public workshop to gather input from the wider community of patients, patient advocates, academic researchers, expert practitioners, drug developers, and other stakeholders. The workshop will address a range of issues and considerations related to the collection and analysis of clinical outcome assessment (COA) data for drug development and regulatory decision making.
The purpose of this public workshop is to obtain feedback from stakeholders on considerations for:
- Endpoint development
- Estimands and analysis models
- Addressing heterogeneity in disease symptoms and functional status between patients and within the same patient over time
- Data collection, storage, transmission, and analysis
This public workshop is intended to support FDA implementation of requirements for guidance development under section 3002 of the 21st Century Cures Act (Pub. L. 114-255) and to meet a performance goal included in the sixth authorization of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA VI). Section 3002 of Title III Subtitle A of the 21st Century Cures Act directs FDA to develop patient-focused drug development guidance to address several areas including methodologies, standards, and technologies to collect and analyze COA data for purposes of regulatory decision making.
In addition, FDA is committed to meet certain performance goals under PDUFA VI. As part of the FDA Reauthorization Act of 2017 signed by the President on August 18, 2017, PDUFA VI includes a number of performance goals and procedures that are documented in the PDUFA VI Commitment Letter.
