The Food and Drug Administration hosted a public workshop on "Regulatory Perspectives on Otic and Vestibular Toxicity: Challenges in Translating Animal Studies to Human Risk Assessment.”
The purpose of the public meeting/public workshop is to identify the challenges involved in the translation of toxicities from animal studies to clinical trials, to highlight potential end-points that can be used in both nonclinical and clinical phases of drug development, and to provide a platform for engaging discussions to improve safety assessments for drugs impacting auditory and vestibular functions. This session will bring together regulatory medical and toxicologist reviewers, veterinary and clinical neurologists, and experts in evaluating auditory and vestibular end-points.
