FDA Releases Draft Guidances to Promote Clinical Trial Design Efficiency

By Daniel Kim of Epstein Becker & Green

On September 28, 2018, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released two draft guidances for industry. The purpose, according to FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, M.D., is to modernize the approach to clinical trial design in efforts to (1) make clinical trials more efficient while maintaining patient safety and (2) increase the amount of information concerning product safety and benefits. The two draft guidances are entitled: “Master Protocols – Efficient Clinical Trial Design Strategies to Expedite Development of Cancer Drugs and Biologics” and “Adaptive Designs for Clinical Trials of Drug and Biologics.” This is the second of the two-part blog series describing the updates to the agency’s recommended approach to incorporating master protocols in clinical trials of new drugs and biological products for the treatment of cancer.
