Combo product reporting final retains 'similar product' language found in draft

July 26, 2019
By Mark McCarty
Device makers have reporting responsibilities for devices used in combination products per an FDA final rule published in 2016, but the FDA said in the 2018 draft guidance that the applicant of a drug- or biologic-led combo product must evaluate whether a malfunction of the device component would suggest a hazard for similar combinations using that device. That provision appears in the final rule, and thus puts the onus on makers of drugs and biologics to do a job device makers say is theirs to handle.

Following more than a year of restructuring and recalibration, Regulus Therapeutics Inc. is facing a new partial clinical hold placed by the FDA on its phase I test of RGLS-4326, an oligonucleotide it's developing for the treatment of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).

FDA approves Karyopharm's selinexor, despite adcom opposition

July 5, 2019
By Michael Fitzhugh
Despite a February adcom meeting urging the agency to wait for more data, the FDA has approved Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc.'s selinexor, in combination with dexamethasone (dex), as a new treatment for certain adults with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (MM).

Ambiguity a fact of life at the FDA, so is agency deference

July 5, 2019
By Mari Serebrov
With regulatory science always lagging innovation, ambiguity has long been a certainty at the FDA and is likely to become even more so as the pace of new technologies quickens.

Impact of shutdown shows up in inspection numbers

July 3, 2019
By Mari Serebrov
In the words of former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, the five-week government shutdown that ended Jan. 25 was "the most difficult operational challenge we have faced in modern times." While the full impact of that challenge could ripple through the FDA for a while, it made little difference in the number of warning letters the agency sent out between Dec. 23 and Jan. 25.

Alexion's Soliris, with fourth nod, has high price and competition

July 1, 2019
By Lee Landenberger
Approval of Alexion Pharmaceutical Inc.'s Soliris (eculizumab) injection to treat neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) in adult patients who are anti-aquaporin-4 (AQP4) antibody positive makes it the first and only FDA-approved treatment. It's also one of the most expensive treatments in the world, making it vulnerable to off-label use and the eventual creep of biosimilars into the market.

FDA’s new man of regulatory mystery

April 30, 2019
By Mark McCarty
Life has a lot of unknowns, and one of the big unknowns for 2019 is what the FDA will look like now that Scott Gottlieb has returned to the American Enterprise Institute.

Scott Gottlieb and the FDA’s revolving door problem

March 7, 2019
By Mark McCarty
Now that the dust is still swirling over the news that Scott Gottlieb will leave the FDA, it’s time to conduct a hasty post-mortem on his tenure at the agency, or perhaps more to the point, his lack of tenure. While it’s tempting to frame the question that way, it might be more salient to ask about the nature of the FDA commissioner’s job and whether it is still sufficiently politically insulated to do what is asked of it. Gottlieb had been on the job...
