SUMMARY:Considerations and Approaches for Obese Patient Populations in Drug Development Studies
DESCRIPTION:Obese patients are a large segment of the U.S. population and should be included in medical countermeasure and drug development studies. There are presently no clear dosing guidelines for obese pediatric patients. \nThe U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in collaboration with the University of Maryland Center of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation (M-CERSI) will host a one-day virtual public workshop entitled “Bridging Efficacy and Safety to the Obese: Considerations and Scientific Approaches” on November 9\, 2022. The purpose of this workshop is to review the implications of obesity in adult and pediatric patients on safety\, efficacy\, drug dosing and disposition. \nBesides the major health and socioeconomic implications of obesity\, there are great challenges in ensuring the optimal use and development of drugs for the growing population of obese persons. Obese patients are a large segment of the U.S. population and should be included in drug development studies. There are presently no clear dosing guidelines for obese pediatric patients. Although smaller clinical studies have begun to examine drug pharmacokinetics in obese pediatric patients\, the relationship between pediatric obesity and drug response\, including efficacy and safety\, has not been thoroughly elucidated. Advancing this field requires identifying key knowledge gaps and barriers to the conduct of such studies and potential innovative solutions to improve data generation and analysis. \nThe workshop aims to: \n\nReview the implications of obesity in adult and pediatric patients on safety\, efficacy\, drug dosing and disposition.\nDiscuss whether adult and pediatric patients should be identified and studied as a special population in new drug development programs\nAddress when it may be appropriate to include obese patients in drug development studies to develop specific dosing guidelines for obese patients\n\nThe workshop which is jointly sponsored by the University of Maryland Center for Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation (M-CERSI) and the FDA\, will be open to the public. \nPlease visit the FDA’s Bridging Efficacy and Safety to the Obese: Considerations and Scientific Approaches event page for more information.

SUMMARY:Regulatory Framework for Distributed and Point of Care Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
DESCRIPTION:The FDA and Product Quality Research Institute (PQRI) will host a webcast workshop on the Regulatory Framework for Distributed and Point of Care Pharmaceutical Manufacturing on 14-16 November 2022. \nFuture pharmaceutical manufacturing may occur not only in large manufacturing facilities; it may occur in smaller\, more geographically distributed facilities or even at the point of care. The National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine noted in a 2021 report that FDA is likely to see substantial innovations in integrated\, flexible\, and distributed manufacturing (DM). These innovations include modular approaches to streamline drug and biologic production and the deployment and use of highly portable manufacturing units that could enable point of care (POC) manufacturing. These types of technologies may challenge the traditional approaches to regulating pharmaceutical manufacturing. \nFDA has also encountered the rapid emergence of advanced manufacturing technologies in various investigational biological products\, such as tissue-based\, cell and gene advanced therapy products\, intersecting with critical areas associated with DM and POC manufacturing. Such biologics are generally more complex with undefined critical quality attributes and often have different manufacturing paradigms. This is particularly true for cellular and gene therapy products and tissue-engineered products. \nThe Workshop aims to facilitate interaction among DM/POC stakeholders on critical areas for development and implementation of these technologies including terminology\, technical challenges to adoption\, operation of Pharmaceutical Quality Systems\, good manufacturing practice expectations\, and the unique challenges and considerations that apply to complex biologics. \nPlease visit PQRI’s Regulatory Framework for Distributed and Point of Care Pharmaceutical Manufacturing website for more information. \n
