Endorser Status and Actual Use in
Direct-to-Consumer Television Ads
OMB Control Number 0910—New
Section 1701(a)(4) of the Public
Health Service Act (42 U.S.C.
300u(a)(4)) authorizes FDA to conduct
research relating to health information.
Section 1003(d)(2)(C) of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C
Act) (21 U.S.C. 393(d)(2)(C)) authorizes
FDA to conduct research relating to
drugs and other FDA-regulated products
in carrying out the provisions of the
FD&C Act.
The mission of the Office of
Prescription Drug Promotion (OPDP) is
to protect the public health by helping
to ensure that prescription drug
promotional material is truthful,
balanced, and accurately
communicated. OPDP’s research
program provides scientific evidence to
help ensure that our policies related to
prescription drug promotion will have
the greatest benefit to public health.
Toward that end, we have consistently
conducted research to evaluate the
aspects of prescription drug promotion
that are most central to our mission,
focusing in particular on three main
topic areas: advertising features,
including content and format; target
populations; and research quality.
Through the evaluation of advertising
features, we assess how elements such
as graphics, format, and the
characteristics of the disease and
product impact the communication and
understanding of prescription drug risks
and benefits. Focusing on target
populations allows us to evaluate how
understanding of prescription drug risks
and benefits may vary as a function of
audience, and our focus on research
quality aims at maximizing the quality
of research data through analytical
methodology development and
investigation of sampling and response
issues. This study will inform the first
topic area, advertising features.
Because we recognize that the
strength of data and the confidence in
the robust nature of the findings are
improved through the results of
multiple converging studies, we
continue to develop evidence to inform
our thinking. We evaluate the results
from our studies within the broader
context of research and findings from
other sources, and this larger body of
knowledge collectively informs our
policies as well as our research program.
Our research is documented on our
home page at https://www.fda.gov/

Register notices and peer-reviewed
publications produced by our office.
The objective of the present research
is to conduct experimental studies to
examine issues related to endorsers in
direct-to-consumer (DTC) prescription
drug promotion. This study
complements one that has recently been
completed (FDA–2019–N–5900, OMB
control number 0910–0894, Expiration
Date: March 31, 2023). As that study
examined a number of different
endorser types in print or internet
settings and focused on examining how
various disclosures of the payment
status of the endorser influenced
audience reactions, this proposed
research extends the prior research by
examining actual-use disclosures and a
different medium, television ads. Prior
research has shown that endorsements
by expert physicians and pharmacists
were the most likely to lead to purchase
intentions, followed by endorsements
by consumers, and lastly, by celebrities
(Refs. 1 and 2).
For healthcare providers (HCPs)
endorsing a prescription drug product,
guiding industry principles advise that
advertisements should contain a
disclosure that the HCP has been
compensated for the endorsement (Ref.
3). Industry guiding principles further
recommend that an advertisement
disclose when an actor is being used as
an HCP to promote DTC prescription
drugs.
Pharmaceutical firms also often use
everyday people, either actual patients
or actors portraying patients, in DTC
promotion, relying on qualities of
identification with the individual
endorsing the product and perceived
credibility (Ref. 4). While industry
guidelines recommend that companies
choosing to feature actors in the roles of
HCPs in a DTC television or print ad
acknowledge in the ad that actors are
being used, the guidelines do not
mention disclosures that the ‘‘patient’’
in an ad is being portrayed by an actor
(Ref. 3). Some advertisers endeavor to
gain credibility among viewers by using
actual patients to endorse the product,
with a disclosure that states they are
actual users of the product (‘‘actual-use
disclosure’’) (Ref. 5).
The present research will specifically
examine the influence of two
independent variables—endorser type
(patient, physician) and an actual-use
disclosure (utilizer, actor, none)—in
television advertisements. Dependent
variables will include perceptions of the
risks and benefits of the promoted
PO 00000
Frm 00069
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
prescription drug, attitudes toward and
perceptions of the endorser, attention
paid to the ad, and behavioral
intentions. Because age and education
level may affect perceptions of the ad,
we plan to explore whether age and
education level influence these effects.
This research will involve two
studies. Studies 1 and 2 will use a 2 ×
3 factorial design run concurrently and
independently with a sample of
consumers who have been diagnosed
with diabetes (Study 1) or rheumatoid
arthritis (Study 2), each watching a DTC
television ad for a fictitious drug
indicated to treat the corresponding
medical conditions. The ad will be
manipulated to assess the impact of two
categories of commonly used industry
spokespeople: a patient and a physician.
We will test three actual-use disclosure
conditions: (1) an actual-use disclosure
that indicates that the endorser either
uses or prescribes the prescription drug
in real life (i.e., utilizer), (2) an actualuse disclosure that specifies the
endorser is an actor, and (3) a control
with no actual-use disclosure. The
design for Studies 1 and 2 is presented
in table 1.

In both studies, participants will be
randomly assigned to one of six
experimental conditions (see table 1),
view their assigned stimulus, complete
a survey, and provide feedback on one
of the other ad versions. We will
conduct pretests with 126 consumers
who self-identify as having been
diagnosed with diabetes and 126
consumers who self-identify as having
been diagnosed with rheumatoid
arthritis, recruited from a web-based
research vendor. For the main study, we
will then recruit 648 consumers who
self-identify as having been diagnosed
with diabetes and 648 consumers who
self-identify as having been diagnosed
with rheumatoid arthritis. Each
participant will see one of six versions
of a television ad for a fictitious
prescription diabetes or rheumatoid
arthritis treatment, as reflected in table
1. They will answer a questionnaire
designed to take no more than 20
minutes.
