Short Course: Methods to Support Patient-Focused Medical Product Development: Key Concepts from FDA’s Patient-Focused Drug Development Guidance Series

This is a Virtual Pre-Conference Short Course in conjunction with the DIA/FDA Biostatistics Industry and Regulator Forum

Overview

*Short Courses require an additional registration fee. You do not need to be registered for the forum to attend*


Incorporating patients’ and caregivers’ voices into medical product development and regulatory decision making requires robust methods. FDA is developing a series of four methodological guidances that together are intended to support efforts to identify what matters to patients, how best to measure what matters, and how to evaluate the effects of interventions designed to improve how patients feel or function. Once all four of the PFDD guidances are final, they will replace the 2009 PRO guidance. This session will step through key methodological considerations found in the publicly available guidance documents in the FDA’s Patient-Focused Drug Development (PFDD) Guidance series.

  • Identify which PFDD guidance document(s) is most relevant to a particular methodological question or challenge
  • Recognize the strengths and limitations of different methodologies for collecting and analyzing patient experience data
  • Distinguish between the different types of clinical outcome assessments (COAs)
  • Evaluate evidence-based rationale for the use of a COA as the basis for an endpoint in clinical trials
