This webinar on pediatric drug development will discuss relevant laws and FDA's approach to pharmaceutical and clinical development in pediatric patients.
Understanding the FDA approach to pharmaceutical and clinical development in pediatric patients will allow those responsible for planning and implementation in the company to plan effectively. This webinar will benefit formulation development, preclinical, clinical, and regulatory scientists in pharmaceutical companies and clinical research organizations (CRO) that are developing an indication for pediatric patients. Also, pediatricians who want to be investigators in pediatric clinical studies sponsored by pharmaceutical companies will get a better idea of what a company wants done before they meet with the company.
Regulatory Specialists who prepare the regulatory documents;
Scientists who develop the needed clinical studies, e.g. clinical scientists, pharmacokineticists, statisticians;
Product Development Scientists and Managers who develop the pediatric formulation;
Clinical Research Scientists and Associates who monitor the studies;
Writers who develop manuscripts for publication;
Why Should You Attend:
This webinar will review the two laws passed in 2002 and 2003: Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act (BPCA) and Pediatric Research Equity Act (PREA) and review what pharmaceutical companies did in response to these laws. The FDA Safety and Innovation Act of 2012 (FDASIA) will also be described and how it changed the development process.Understanding the FDA approach to pharmaceutical and clinical development in pediatric patients will allow those responsible for planning and implementation in the company to plan effectively.
