Understanding the Food and Drug Administration
Overview:
The Food and Drug Administration recently issued draft guidance to explain its approach to pre-dissemination review of direct-to-consumer (DTC) television advertisements. The draft guidance represents a significant change in FDA’s approach and attempts to provide detail on what steps advertisers should take and what enforcement steps, including civil and criminal penalties, may be expected.. If adopted, the Guidance will present significant compliance challenges for all companies in the industry.
Pharmaceutical companies and ad sponsors should have a complete understanding of FDA’s current thinking as reflected in this draft guidance to assess its potential impact on their business relations.
The Knowledge Group has assembled a panel of distinguished professionals and key regulators to help understand the complex issues related to the draft guidance and its impact on your firm and the broader market. The speakers will present their expert opinions in a two-hour LIVE Webcast.
