Phase IV trials involve the safety surveillance (pharmacovigilance) and ongoing technical support of a drug after it receives regulatory approval to be sold. [8] Phase IV studies may be required by regulatory authorities or may be undertaken by the sponsoring company for competitive (finding a new market for the drug) or other reasons (for ...
A drug that receives a fast track designation is eligible for some or all of the following: [3] More frequent meetings with FDA to discuss the drug's development plan and ensure collection of appropriate data needed to support drug approval; More frequent written correspondence from FDA about such things as the design of the proposed clinical ...
A successful pivotal trial is required as evidence for drug marketing approval by the relevant approval authorities, such as the European Medicines Agency, Health Canada or United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). [1] In drug research, a pivotal Phase III trial may be referred to as a "therapeutic confirmatory study", [1] and is ...
Phase 2 study completed, showing improvement in pain, function and joint space width. [12] Phase 3 study started in May 2019. [13] In May 2020, it was reported that phase 2a trial failed to meet primary endpoint. [14] [15] But a phase 2b trial in early 2021 met primary endpoint. [16] BioSplice(ex-Samumed) expects to release phase3 results in ...
A study covering clinical research in the 1980–1990s found that only 21.5% of drug candidates that started Phase I trials were eventually approved for marketing. [12] During 2006–2015, the success rate of obtaining approval from Phase I to successful Phase III trials was under 10% on average, and 16% specifically for vaccines. [13]

Phase III trials continue to monitor toxicity, immunogenicity, and SAEs on a much larger scale. [6] The vaccine must be shown to be safe and effective in natural disease conditions before being submitted for approval and then general production. In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for approving vaccines. [7]
