FDA Completes Work on Three Drug User Fee Programs
Date:1/13/2012

 As a result of the continued investment of PDUFA resources, the United States now leads the world in first introduction of novel drugs.

PDUFA was created by Congress in 1992 and must be reauthorized every five years. The current program, known as PDUFA IV, will expire on Sept. 30, 2012, unless reauthorized by Congress. FDA's recommendations for PDUFA V were developed in consultation both with drug industry representatives and with patient and consumer advocates.

Under the recommendations, fees paid by industry would support continued timely review of critical prescription drugs, as well as advance the development of drugs for rare diseases, provide for enhanced communication with small or emerging companies, increase the use of standardized electronic data to improve quality and efficiency, and foster the use of new clinical endpoints that improve drug development times and help address unmet medical needs.

The proposed new Generic Drug User Fee program would provide the FDA with needed funding at a time when generic drug applications are on the rise. Generic drug user fees would help ensure consumers timely access to safe, high-quality and effective generic drugs, which account for two-thirds of all prescriptions dispensed in the U.S.

The FDA receives 800 to 900 new generic-drug-related applications annually. These applications are increasingly complex and frequently involve products manufactured outside of the U.S. In exchange for fees on facilities and product applications, the proposal includes performance metrics such as review timeframes and a commitment to achieve parity between surveillance inspections of foreign and domestic establishments by the 2017 fiscal year. As a result, FDA expects that the proposal would effectively eliminate the review backlog and significantly reduce review times.
