Abstract: The guidance describes how FDA plans to work with applicants and sponsors to achieve expedited development and rapid review of new drugs or biological products intended to treat serious or life-threatening conditions and that demonstrate the potential to address unmet medical needs for the condition. A sponsor or applicant seeking to have a drug or biological product designated as one in a fast track drug development program may submit a request for fast track designation as an amendment to an IND or as a supplement to an application. After FDA makes a fast track designation, the sponsor or applicant may submit a pre-meeting package which may include additional information supporting a request to participate in certain fast track programs.
