Description : The area of pediatric development is relatively new and changing following the new laws. The use of adult data to support the pediatric initiative allows good adult information to support the children. This webinar will give you a good taste on what has happened recently. We will discuss the two laws passed : Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act (BPCA) and Pediatric Research Equity Act (PREA) and review what pharmaceutical companies did in response to these laws. The FDA Safety and Innovation Act of 2012 (FDASIA) will also be described and how it changed the development process. Understanding the FDA approach to pharmaceutical and clinical development in pediatric patients will allow those responsible for planning and implementation of the company to plan effectively.
