Download or read book Sponsor Clinical Investigator Training Module B Biologics written by Kalman Dubov and published by Kalman Dubov. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical investigations with biologics are commonly complex, requiring detailed knowledge of the regulatory frameworks for both drugs and biologics since the Food & Drug Administration applies the regulations for drugs as well as for biologics for such clinical investigations. The complexity is furthered if the article is a combination biologic-drug or biologic-device. These three modules are designed to assist the sponsor and clinical investigator in conducting professional investigational trials for biologics. The FDA has a specific Center for biologics, with regulations and many guidance documents to assist the industry and investigators in the requirements for such trials. These two modules provide the basics of understanding the regulatory framework and complying with the Agency's requirements. Module A focuses on the Principal Investigator and the responsibilities necessary to comply with FDA requirements during the course of the clinical trial. The module begins with the definition of a biologic, followed by a review of clinical trials, gene transfer studies, the clinical investigator's responsibilities during the trial with regard to documentation, risks, how to respond to the study sponsor, the Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB), and the FDA. The module concludes with details regarding the consent form and process, detailing what is necessary to consent a subject into the study. Module B focuses on the study sponsor and the submissions to the FDA for permission to begin the study. The module begins with a review of the protocol sections, together with the electronic Common Technical Document (eCTD), the phases of the clinical investigation, a review of combination products, dual-use technologies, concluding with the FDA audit. These two modules, though comprehensive, can be mastered to the great benefit of the investigational community, and more so, for the patient who will receive an approved biologic that has proven efficacy.

Download or read book Sponsor Clinical Investigator Training Module A written by Kalman Dubov and published by Kalman Dubov. This book was released on 2022-01-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These three modules are designed to assist both the sponsor and the clinical investigator in conducting professional investigational trials for biomedical devices. The US Food & Drug Administration has a specific Center for all bio-medical devices, with regulations and numerous guidance documents to assist the industry and investigators in the requirements for such trials. Bio-medical devices, their regulations, and requirements are perhaps the most complex and difficult to grasp for the new sponsor or clinical investigator. The regulatory nuances, frequently based on historic anomalies, drive the current regulatory process and those involved in such trials must be trained in these different requirements. While the detail is complex, following the different approval or clearance pathways correctly can result in receiving the Agency's marketing approval or clearance in a ready-made format. These three modules provide the basics of such understanding and compliance. The first module begins with the difference between regular physician-based care for a patient to the clinical investigator who follows the restrictions of the protocol and the consequent consent form. Similarly, off-label use of a device in a physician's office differs from an off-label trial, with the latter requiring submissions to the FDA before beginning the clinical trial. A unique subset of biomedical devices is that the device may be a combination device (device-drug or device-biologic) requiring careful scrutiny as to which regulatory framework controls. This Module also includes sponsor responsibilities, to the FDA, the principal investigator, and the reviewing IRB. Module B continues the overview, with the responsibilities of the principal investigator, followed by the protocol-driven Investigational Device protocol to the FDA. I also include studies with apps, a timely matter considering the wide use of apps on today's smartphones. Module C reviews the consent form for study subjects, followed by a review of FDA's three 510(k) processes, followed by the FDA audit. The audit can be a scary proposition, especially for the site that has not prepared for it. I offer recommendations for such preparation. These three modules, though comprehensive, can be mastered to the great benefit of the investigational community, and more so, for the patient who will receive an approved or cleared device that has been tested with proven efficacy.

Download or read book General FDA Training written by Kalman Dubov and published by Kalman Dubov. This book was released on 2022-01-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical trials for drugs, bio-medical devices or biologics require careful attention to the requirements of the U.S. Food & Drug Administration. The Agency has several centers, each of which is focused on the three main areas of clinical investigations through the life cycle of the article. both study sponsors, as well as principal investigators, must comply with these requirements, from the time of study inception through the approval process. This module provides an immediate overview of the Agency, with more specific information regarding drugs, bio-medical devices, and biologics. The sponsor, investigator and/or the investigator's staff, will gain from reviewing this module and by attending study sessions commonly presented by study sponsors, or their representatives by the contract research organization (CRO). the key factor in such training is the attention to detail throughout the clinical investigation, with emphasis on maintaining written records so that the Agency audit is a smooth and professional process. I hope this module provides adequate background information enabling these professionals to successfully maneuver through these requirements with minimal frustration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These two modules present detailed training on conducting clinical investigations on drugs. The process to gain marketing approval from the US Food & Drug Administration requires extensive and detailed interaction with Agency officials, from inception through the different study trial phases. The requirements for the study sponsor and the principal investigator are different, but both must comply with the FDA's lengthy and detailed regulations and guidance documents. These modules are designed to assist the study sponsor and investigator to comply with the FDA, so that the study is conducted with minimal difficulty. The module begins with a discussion regarding the differences between medical care to that of a clinical investigation. The module continues with a regulatory definition of a drug, the general responsibilities of a clinical investigator, through study designs, to include documentation requirements for both the study sponsor and the investigator. Module B continues the training detailing how a protocol is submitted to the FDA, through the FDA audit process. These two modules will enable the study sponsor and clinical investigator to have detailed background knowledge of the nature of a drug's clinical investigation. As in all matters, knowledge of a subject is critical in understanding how the process works so that compliance is not a matter of guesswork.

Download or read book The Prevention and Treatment of Missing Data in Clinical Trials written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2010-12-21 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Randomized clinical trials are the primary tool for evaluating new medical interventions. Randomization provides for a fair comparison between treatment and control groups, balancing out, on average, distributions of known and unknown factors among the participants. Unfortunately, these studies often lack a substantial percentage of data. This missing data reduces the benefit provided by the randomization and introduces potential biases in the comparison of the treatment groups. Missing data can arise for a variety of reasons, including the inability or unwillingness of participants to meet appointments for evaluation. And in some studies, some or all of data collection ceases when participants discontinue study treatment. Existing guidelines for the design and conduct of clinical trials, and the analysis of the resulting data, provide only limited advice on how to handle missing data. Thus, approaches to the analysis of data with an appreciable amount of missing values tend to be ad hoc and variable. The Prevention and Treatment of Missing Data in Clinical Trials concludes that a more principled approach to design and analysis in the presence of missing data is both needed and possible. Such an approach needs to focus on two critical elements: (1) careful design and conduct to limit the amount and impact of missing data and (2) analysis that makes full use of information on all randomized participants and is based on careful attention to the assumptions about the nature of the missing data underlying estimates of treatment effects. In addition to the highest priority recommendations, the book offers more detailed recommendations on the conduct of clinical trials and techniques for analysis of trial data.

Download or read book Safe and Effective Medicines for Children written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-10-13 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act (BPCA) and the Pediatric Research Equity Act (PREA) were designed to encourage more pediatric studies of drugs used for children. The FDA asked the IOM to review aspects of pediatric studies and changes in product labeling that resulted from BPCA and PREA and their predecessor policies, as well as assess the incentives for pediatric studies of biologics and the extent to which biologics have been studied in children. The IOM committee concludes that these policies have helped provide clinicians who care for children with better information about the efficacy, safety, and appropriate prescribing of drugs. The IOM suggests that more can be done to increase knowledge about drugs used by children and thereby improve the clinical care, health, and well-being of the nation's children.

This book was released on 2006-06-16 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To improve public confidence in clinical research, a number of public and private groups have called for a publicly accessible, comprehensive, and transparent registry of relevant information on clinical trials for drugs and biologics. The public and various entities within the medical community (health care providers, researchers, medical journal editors, pharmaceutical companies, health insurers, and regulators) have different expectations and perceived needs regarding a public clinical trial registry. The IOM Committee on Clinical Trial Registries hosted a workshop on June 27, 2005, to obtain much-needed input from members of the public, public advocate groups, and the broader community of journal editors, pharmaceutical and biotech leaders, NIH, and the FDA. Participants discussed the data elements that have been at the core of debate and commented on issues of compliance and implementation of a national clinical trial registry. Developing a National Registry of Pharmacologic and Biologic Clinical Trials: Workshop Report inlcudes discussions at the workshop centered on the following five concepts, and are described within this report: 1) Purpose, 2) Which Trials to Include, 3) Delayed Disclosure Mechanism, 4) Reporting Results of Completed Trials, and 5) Compliance.

Download or read book Registries for Evaluating Patient Outcomes written by Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality/AHRQ and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This User’s Guide is intended to support the design, implementation, analysis, interpretation, and quality evaluation of registries created to increase understanding of patient outcomes. For the purposes of this guide, a patient registry is an organized system that uses observational study methods to collect uniform data (clinical and other) to evaluate specified outcomes for a population defined by a particular disease, condition, or exposure, and that serves one or more predetermined scientific, clinical, or policy purposes. A registry database is a file (or files) derived from the registry. Although registries can serve many purposes, this guide focuses on registries created for one or more of the following purposes: to describe the natural history of disease, to determine clinical effectiveness or cost-effectiveness of health care products and services, to measure or monitor safety and harm, and/or to measure quality of care. Registries are classified according to how their populations are defined. For example, product registries include patients who have been exposed to biopharmaceutical products or medical devices. Health services registries consist of patients who have had a common procedure, clinical encounter, or hospitalization. Disease or condition registries are defined by patients having the same diagnosis, such as cystic fibrosis or heart failure. The User’s Guide was created by researchers affiliated with AHRQ’s Effective Health Care Program, particularly those who participated in AHRQ’s DEcIDE (Developing Evidence to Inform Decisions About Effectiveness) program. Chapters were subject to multiple internal and external independent reviews.
