of pain in children 6 months of age and
older. Furthermore, controlled trials in
patients less than 2 years of age have
been difficult to complete and the data
obtained from completed trials have
often been difficult to interpret.
The purpose of the public workshop
is to discuss the current state of
therapies to treat acute pain in children,
identify data gaps, and consider
methods to improve the current drug
development paradigm for acute pain in
patients less than 2 years of age (e.g.,
use of pediatric extrapolation, and novel
clinical trial designs). The workshop is
intended to focus on drugs with wellestablished mechanisms of action
(NSAIDs, acetaminophen, local
anesthetics, opioids), rather than drugs
with novel mechanisms of action.
II. Topics for Discussion at the Public
Workshop
The main objective of the ‘‘Analgesic
Clinical Trial Designs, Extrapolation,
and Endpoints in Patients from Birth to
Less Than Two Years of Age’’ workshop
is to discuss the current state of
therapies to treat acute pain in children,
identify data gaps, and discuss feasible
trial designs and methods (e.g., use of
pediatric extrapolation) to improve the
current drug development paradigm for
acute pain in patients less than 2 years
of age. The workshop will include
regulators, industry, academia, and
patient organizations to optimize the
discussion of the selected topics.
