Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study sought to investigate the factors that contribute to the approval of individual applications through an analysis of review reports and to assess the outcome of efforts to facilitate the approval of off-label drugs by the public knowledge approval system that has been used for over a decade in Japan. Prior approval by foreign authorities, although important, did not appear to be essential for approval in Japan. Substantiating safety and effectiveness of agents by means of standard textbooks or guidelines was used consistently to obtain approval for off-label use. In addition, we investigated the relation between evidence and approval relating to companion diagnostics and medical countermeasures against chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) agents in Japan.
