SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background FDA is announcing the availability of a revised draft guidance for industry entitled ‘‘General Clinical Pharmacology Considerations for Pediatric Studies of Drugs, Including Biological Products.’’ Effectiveness, safety, or dose-finding studies in pediatric patients involve gathering clinical pharmacology information, such as information regarding a product’s pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, to inform dose selection and individualization. This draft guidance addresses general clinical pharmacology considerations for conducting studies so that the dosing and safety information for drugs and biological products in pediatric populations can be sufficiently characterized, leading to well-designed trials to evaluate effectiveness. In general, this draft guidance focuses on the clinical pharmacology information (e.g., exposure-response, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics) that supports findings of effectiveness and safety and helps identify appropriate doses in pediatric populations. This draft guidance also describes how quantitative approaches (i.e., pharmacometrics) can use disease and exposure-response knowledge from relevant prior clinical studies to help design and evaluate future pediatric studies. This draft guidance revises the draft guidance, ‘‘General Clinical Pharmacology Considerations for Pediatric Studies of Drugs and Biological Products,’’ issued on December 9, 2014 (79 FR 73079). This draft guidance provides clarification on clinical pharmacology studies in pediatric patients from the 2014 draft guidance in response to public comments. This draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA’s good guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when finalized, will represent the current thinking of FDA on ‘‘General Clinical Pharmacology Considerations for Pediatric Studies of Drugs and Biological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. II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 This draft guidance refers to previously approved FDA collections of information. These collections of VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:19 Sep 07, 2022 Jkt 256001 information are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–3521). The collections of information for the submission of new drug applications in 21 CFR part 314 have been approved under OMB control number 0910–0001. The collections of information for the submission of biologics license applications in 21 CFR part 601 have been approved under OMB control number 0910–0338. The collections of information for the submission of investigational new drug applications in 21 CFR part 312 have been approved under OMB control number 0910–0014.
