use of RWE to: (1) Help to support the
approval of a new indication for a drug
approved under section 505(c) of the
FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 355(c)); and (2)
help to support or satisfy postapproval
study requirements. This section also
requires that FDA use the program to
inform guidance for industry on the
circumstances under which sponsors of
drugs may rely on RWE and the
appropriate standards and
methodologies for the collection and
analysis of RWE submitted to evaluate
the potential use of RWE for those
purposes. Further, under the
Prescription Drug User Fee
Amendments of 2017 (PDUFA VI), FDA
committed to the goal of publishing
draft guidance on how RWE can
contribute to the assessment of safety
and effectiveness in regulatory
submissions.
FDA is issuing the draft guidance as
part of a series of guidance documents
to satisfy the Cures Act mandate and the
PDUFA VI goal. The RWE Program will
cover clinical studies that use realworld data sources, such as information
from routine clinical practice, to derive
RWE.
This draft guidance is being issued
consistent with FDA’s good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115).
The draft guidance, when finalized, will
represent the current thinking of FDA
on ‘‘Real-World Data: Assessing
Electronic Health Records and Medical
Claims Data to Support Regulatory
Decision-Making for Drug and
Biological Products.’’ It does not
establish any rights for any person and
is not binding on FDA or the public.
You can use an alternative approach if
it satisfies the requirements of the
applicable statutes and regulations.
