collaboration with the Health Resources
and Services Administration, Maternal

Program (Tribal Home Visiting). The
Tribal Home Visiting discretionary
grants support cooperative agreements
to conduct community needs
assessments; plan for and implement
high-quality, culturally-relevant,
evidence-based home visiting programs
in at-risk tribal communities; establish,
measure, and report on progress toward
meeting performance measures in six
legislatively-mandated benchmark
areas; and conduct rigorous evaluation
activities to build the knowledge base
on home visiting among Native
populations.
Tribal Home Visiting grantees have
been notified that in every year of their
grant, after the first year, they must
comply with the requirement for
submitting an Annual Report to the
Secretary that should feature activities
carried out under the program during
the past reporting period and a final
report to the Secretary during the final
year of their grant. In order to assist
grantees with meeting the requirements
of the Annual and Final Report to the
Secretary, ACF created guidance for
grantees to use when writing their
reports. The existing guidance (OMB
Control No. 0970–0409, Expiration Date
10/31/18) provides sections where
grantees must address the following:
• Update on Home Visiting Program

Evaluating Inclusion and Exclusion
Criteria in Clinical Trials; Public
Meeting
AGENCY:

The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA, the Agency, or
we) is announcing a public meeting

Exclusion Criteria in Clinical Trials.’’

Margolis, MD, Center for Health Policy

facilitate the enrollment of a diverse
patient population.
DATES: The public meeting will be held
on April 16, 2018, from 8:30 a.m. to 5
p.m. See the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION section for registration date

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
This public meeting implements
FDA’s mandate under section 610 of the
FDA Reauthorization Act of 2017 to
convene a public meeting to discuss
clinical trial inclusion and exclusion
criteria that will ultimately inform an
FDA guidance on this subject. Among
other things, the public meeting will
include discussion about various ways
in which participation in clinical trials
can be improved, including through
alternative trial designs and expanded
access trials (see Section II. Topics for
Discussion at the Public Meeting).
Inclusion of relevant subpopulations
in drug development programs helps
ensure that approved products will be
safe and effective for the population
likely to be treated when the drug is
marketed. However, certain eligibility
criteria in clinical trials can exclude
patient subgroups, resulting in the
enrollment of study populations that
may not be fully representative of that
broader patient population. FDA has
and will continue its efforts to
encourage greater diversity in clinical
trial populations. For example, FDA
regulations require marketing
applications to provide analyses of
safety and effectiveness by demographic
and other relevant subgroups (see 21
CFR 314.50(d)(5)(v)). In addition, in
2016, FDA published guidance on the
collection of race and ethnicity data in
clinical trials (available on FDA’s
guidance web page at https://
www.fda.gov/downloads/
