Description

On April 6, 2017 FDA is conducting a public meeting on Patient-Focused Drug Development for Sarcopenia. Patient-Focused Drug Development is part of FDA’s performance commitments made as part of the fifth authorization of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA V). FDA is interested in the perspectives of patients with sarcopenia on i) symptoms and the daily impacts of their condition ii) current approaches to treatment, and iii) decision factors taken into account when selecting a treatment.

The questions that will be asked of patients and patient stakeholders at the meeting are listed below, organized by topic. For each topic, a panel of patients and patient representatives will present comments to begin the dialogue and will be followed by a facilitated discussion inviting comments from all patients and patient representatives in the audience.

If you are attending the meeting in person and are interested in providing comments as part of the initial panel discussion, indicate so during the registration process. Potential panelists must send a brief summary of responses to the discussion questions below to PatientFocused@fda.hhs.gov by March 20, 2017. Panelists will be confirmed prior to the meeting.

There will also be an opportunity for patients, patient representatives and others to provide comments on issues other than topics 1 and 2 during an Open Public Comment session. Sign-up for Open Public Comment will take place the day of the meeting.

Webcast participants will also have an opportunity to provide input through webcast comments.

For more information, refer to the FDA meeting website at: http://www.fda.gov/ForIndustry/UserFees/PrescriptionDrugUserFee/ucm527587.htm.
