On September 30th, FDA issued draft guidance, “Format and Content of Proposed Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies (REMS), REMS Assessments and Proposed REMS Modifications”. While much of this draft guidance is a codification of what’s already been happening in practice over the past 2 years, there are some interesting aspects in the guidance for those working in the REMS space to contemplate. This is the fifth in an ongoing series of blog articles about this important document.
Our first four articles covered the background of FDAAA and REMS, an overview of a REMS submission and greater detail about the “Proposed REMS” and “REMS Supporting Document”, and REMS submissions and communications with FDA.
In this fifth and final article, we address our preliminary interpretation of the draft guidance, as well as opportunities for industry to respond and propose further improvements. (more…)

This article covers the section of the guidance about “REMS assessment and modification submissions” and “communicating with FDA”. (more…)

On September 30th, FDA issued its long awaited draft guidance, “Format and Content of Proposed Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies (REMS), REMS Assessments and Proposed REMS Modifications”. While much of this draft guidance is a codification of what’s already been happening in practice over the past 2 years, there are a few interesting surprises (depicted in bold below) for those working in the REMS space to contemplate. This is the third in an ongoing series of blog articles about this important document.
Our first two articles covered the background of FDAAA and REMS relative to RiskMAPs and those RiskMAPs deemed to be REMS, an overview of a REMS submission, and greater detail about the more concise “proposed REMS” component of the REMS document submission. This article details the content of the more comprehensive “REMS Supporting Document”, which explains the rationale for, and supporting information about, the proposed REMS. A template for the REMS Supporting Document can be found on the www.fda.gov website. (more…)
