Phase IV studies have emerged as a powerful tool for companies to get their drugs to be used more broadly and for longer periods. The growth rate of Phase IV spending is continuing to increase. A Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development analysis found that between 1998 and 2003, the U.S. FDA requested Post-Marketing commitments in 73% of the approvals for new drugs not previously approved in the U.S. Also, the FDA reported in March 2004 that there is 1,000 open commitment post-approval clinical and non-clinical toxicology studies. At this point less than 20% of post-approval studies are completed.
Attend CBI’s annual conference and gain insight from the regulatory, clinical, marketing, adverse events and Post-Marketing perspectives. The program provides a unique forum in which you can network with industry executives and Phase IV teams who can share their valuable experiences with you.
