SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Rmajette on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES I. Background Since publication of the 2011 ‘‘Identifying CDER’s Science and Research Needs’’ report, FDA has been engaged in efforts to further assess and prioritize the needs articulated therein. As part of these efforts, CDER’s Safety Research Interest Group (SRIG), a subcommittee of the Science Prioritization and Review Committee, assessed CDER’s overall drug safetyrelated regulatory science needs in view of FDA’s ongoing research efforts and highlighted areas that would benefit from additional resources and collaboration. The SRIG identified the following seven overall needs for drug safetyrelated regulatory science: 1. Improve access to postmarket data sources and explore the feasibility of their use in safety signal analyses 2. Improve risk assessment and management strategies to reinforce the safe use of drugs 3. Evaluate the effectiveness of risk communications of drug safety information to health care providers and the public 4. Improve product quality and design, manufacturing processes, and product performance relating to safety 5. Develop and improve predictive models of safety in humans, including nonclinical biomarkers 6. Improve clinical trial statistical analyses for safety, including benefitrisk assessment 7. Investigate clinical biomarkers of safety, including standards for qualification. Particular priorities within the seven overall needs requiring further resources and outside participation were also identified. FDA seeks to stimulate collaborations with external partners and stakeholders to address these needs by asking them to: (1) Submit descriptions of their ongoing research and initiatives related to the seven overall needs, especially the identified priorities, and (2) indicate their interest in working with FDA to address these needs.
