FDA IND Requirements by Indication: Standard, Oncology, Rare Disease & Pediatric — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Did
- 0:00you know that the FDA reviews your IND based on the indication
- 0:05that you're submitting it for? And not every program is the same.
- 0:08They all depend on what patient population you're going after.
- 0:11So this chart here, we're going to go through the different indications that we
- 0:14have and how the FDA has you measure up.
- 0:18So for a standard indication like metabolic or immunology,
- 0:25your safety margin expectation is more than 10x of your clinical AUC.
- 0:29Your study duration has to meet or exceed your clinical regimen.
- 0:33Your safety farm has to be, you're going to have a couple of standalone
- 0:37studies for your CV, your CNS, your respiratory usually. You also have integrated endpoints.
- 0:38Your genotox, you're going to require the full battery before phase one.
- 0:41And your risk tolerance is low. You must explain all your findings,
- 0:43that safety margin, that exposure margin has to be adequate enough.
- 0:47You have to have everything pretty much right on the dot.
- 0:49And your clinical clinical package, your non-clinical program is going to be strong,
- 0:52robust, and a lot of work. For serious and life-threatening indications,
- 0:57oncology, terminal, or post really advanced,
- 0:59very sick patient populations,
- 1:01less than a 10x safety margin might be acceptable.
- 1:04For oncology, sometimes we go 1, 3, or 5x,
- 1:07but it has to be justified as well. Your study duration,
- 1:10you can have a 14-day study that may support a phase one in terminal
- 1:13indications, depending on how sick the patient population is.
- 1:16And within phase one, you're not going to go into healthy volunteers,
- 1:19you're going to go into patients. Your safety farm,
- 1:21we can integrate this into GLP talks a lot,
- 1:23and you can waive standalone studies. Sometimes you might need a cardiovascular standalone a
- 1:28safety farm study to understand cardio toxicity But most of the time we can
- 1:32integrate this into GLP talks have some endpoints like ECGs FOBs
- 1:36within those studies and then histopath to correlate those findings.
- 1:39Your genotox, you're going to require at least an AMES test before phase one,
- 1:43and you're going to require the rest of the battery throughout the rest of
- 1:45development. Your risk tolerance is a lot higher,
- 1:48you have a little bit more wiggle room. If your benefit outweighs your risk
- 1:51for that indication, then you're going to have a much easier time getting through
- 1:55your IND clearance and getting into humans. Rare disease,
- 1:59you have a lot of flexibility here, you can see the green here.
- 2:03So your safety margin expectation is a lot more flexible if your benefit risk
- 2:06argument is strong. Your study duration will vary.
- 2:09You'll get flexibility on that but it depends on the disease.
- 2:12Your safety farm is case-by-case.
- 2:14It depends on your target findings, how your pharmacology adds up,
- 2:17and what you're going to need to be able to justify that you have
- 2:19a safe drug scientifically. Genotox,
- 2:22your standard battery is usually required. drugs,
- 2:26sometimes pediatric or genetic disorders, so show
- 2:29the genotoxicity risk or lack thereof.
- 2:31Risk tolerance is moderate. Again, these are diseases where severity is considered in a
- 2:35benefit risk scenario why you should or should not get your
- 2:40clearance. and pediatric programs, these are a lot more strict programs,
- 2:43these are usually first in children or an adult pedi combo.
- 2:46Your safety margin is a lot more higher of a standard.
- 2:49Your study duration, Juvenile animal studies are usually required on top of typical
- 2:54standard tox studies as well. Safety pharmacology strongly standalone
- 3:00studies as well as integrated endpoints. Genotox,
- 3:03same as adult, standard minimum, doing the battery,
- 3:06uh, before phase one. And your risk tolerance is very,
- 3:08very low. there's a higher standard for a vulnerable population.
- 3:12Pediatrics and going into children, you have a lot more riding on it.
- 3:16The programs are weighted a lot more because you're going into children,
- 3:19there's a bigger risk there. So here's the full makeup.
- 3:22You can see all of the different medications that we have and all the
- 3:25different things that the FDA is going to require. Save this,
- 3:28pin it, bookmark it, and if you want to go into more depth about
- 3:32what the FDA is going to require and how to do a non-clinical regulatory
- 3:35strategy that will pass your IND, Check out my course the complete guide to
- 3:38non-clinical development. It'll be pinned in the comments below as well as in the
