In the US there have only been two devices legally marketed in the last 10 years intended to treat obesity, with many more under clinical investigation. New drugs have recently been approved and, although they appear to provide some benefit, the use of these is associated with many side-effects and with an uncertain sustained weight loss. Using the benefit–risk paradigm as a basis for future study design, this editorial discusses the significant issues associated with the clinical trials intended to provide data to support the safety and effectiveness of new devices for obesity. Some of these issues include the choice of the appropriate study end-points, duration of the study, the need for sham comparators, and patient preference. Ideas are then proposed for future studies to aid in getting new devices to market.","PeriodicalId":10446,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Research and Regulatory Affairs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80051049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Indeed, in England, they have overtaken nicotine replacement therapy as a preferred product for cessation support. However, e-cigarettes have reached the market without evaluation of cessation efficacy and safety, bypassing the route required by regulatory authorities for pharmaceuticals that make therapeutic claims. Adequately powered clinical trials that evaluate the cessation efficacy potential of these products compared with current cessation treatments are needed; although the novel features and challenges of assessing this product group, such as wide diversity, rapid evolution and range of user behaviors, do not fit well within the standard clinical trial framework. This should be taken into account by regulators. Alternative designs that are pragmatic, accommodate user preferences, and include smoking reduction end-points may also be required. A more consistent approach to the regulation of products that deliver nicotine—one that does not favor tobacco—should be considered as part of a comprehensive nicotine regulatory model.","PeriodicalId":10446,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Research and Regulatory Affairs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82297394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Revisions in the guidelines occur in order to resolve any previously unclear issues and to address new needs. In this paper, the authors discuss the major regulatory requirements for bioequivalence assessment before and after the EMA guidelines of 2010 and unveil their differences. The authors compiled this review following the critical exploration of literature articles and regulatory guidance documents. This was achieved through searching MEDLINE, Scopus, and the official EMA site. The authors found, in the post-2010 era, that the major differences in the regulatory framework refer to: the choice of clinical designs, the assessment of highly variable drugs, biowaivers, the pharmacokinetics parameters used, and the explicit definition for the use of metabolite data, enantiomers, and endogenous substances. Also, product-specific guidelines have started to be issued, while recommendations are now provided for some special formulations like orodispersible tablets. Other issues were elucidated like studies in the fasting or fed state and the dissolution assessment. The EMA regulatory framework on bioequivalence changed significantly in the post-2010 era. Many issues are now defined more explicitly, while others are newly introduced. However, some issues remain unresolved.","PeriodicalId":10446,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Research and Regulatory Affairs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86607257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review provides a broad overview of some of the physiological differences in special populations and discusses how these differences may affect study design and regulatory considerations. These various special populations, with respect to regulatory affairs, are clearly defined within the Code of Federal Regulations. The definition of \"special population\" exists to provide enhanced awareness of their vulnerabilities, thereby allowing the creation of regulatory guidance aimed to decrease injury or outright harm. Currently, progress is being made to be more inclusive of special populations in clinical trials. This reflects changing attitudes towards drug information, with it being more representative of those patients that will ultimately be prescribed or exposed to the therapy.

Investigator-initiated clinical trials outside this registration scheme, such as large-scale trials to establish evidence for already approved drugs, are conducted based on government guidelines without corresponding laws. The Japanese adoption of Good Clinical Practice in 1997 and the governmental clinical trials vitalization plans instituted in 2003 have led to the improvement of infrastructure for registration trials, and this has in turn improved registration trial speed and quality. Global trials, rather than strictly domestic trials, are now prevailing. In contrast, problems associated with investigator-initiated trials conducted outside registration trial requirements were recently exposed by a scandal concerning a study of the anti-hypertensive drug valsartan. After the drug was launched, secondary benefits were reported in several academia-initiated clinical trials; these results proved to be fraudulent and the articles were retracted. This scandal threatens the reputation of Japanese drug trials and highlights the lack of scrutiny such trials have in terms of the potential conflicts of interest. To combat this issue, Japan has begun to establish new guidelines and a regulatory infrastructure to enhance the reliability of investigator-initiated clinical trials.","PeriodicalId":10446,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Research and Regulatory Affairs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75325792","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

That being said, there are significant differences in the requirements set by both guidelines, and the aim of this article is to point out those differences. In this review, the author carefully and comprehensively compared the publicly available guidelines via the official Food and Drug Administation’s (FDA) and European Medicine Agency’s (EMA) websites, highlighting the differences between the two sets. Unlike the guidelines provided by the FDA, the EMA guidelines lack set requirements for testing interactions with therapeutic proteins as well as with the usage of pharmacodynamics end-points. It also does not set standards for the use of the ‘no interaction’ declaration in the summary of product characteristics. On the other hand, the FDA currently lacks guidance for testing drug–food interactions, the use of the Relative Induction Score correlation method, and proving existence of reversible inhibition and mechanism-based inactivation. It is important to note that, while there are differences in the requirements for the FDA’s and the EMA’s drug interaction guidelines, they are not substantial and are mostly relating to the scope of requirements and precision of the standards set.","PeriodicalId":10446,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Research and Regulatory Affairs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76687713","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research on gaming addiction dates back to the 1970s, and important changes in the field have occurred, especially in terms of definition and conceptualization of the phenomenon, which resulted in a multiplicity of strategies in the assessment of IGD via inconsistent criteria or psychometric tools. In the present review, the authors argue how the adoption of inconsistent criteria and psychometric tools for assessing IGD has negatively influenced the field. Furthermore, this review provides an overview of how the field evolved in terms of its historical developments, current definitions and frameworks, developments in the neurobiological research, psychometric assessment, and emerging trends in the assessment of gaming addiction.

In today’s date, clinical trials are the backbone for bringing newer and better drugs to market. Although a set of established guidelines are available for governing the conduct of clinical trials in India, the ethics committees of this country are still struggling with basic issues viz, inadequate or no standard operating procedures (SOPs) and non-compliance with the Schedule Y recommendations. The ethics committee being the prime body with the responsibility of regulating clinical research, protecting and safeguarding the rights, safety and well-being of research participants, the institutions, hospitals, and pharmaceutical industries that focus on enhancing their research facilities tend to ignore the various aspects of ethics committees like composition and qualification of members forming the quorum, regular updates of ethics committees to be reported to the central authority, lack of administrative support and communication, inadequate remuneration offered to members serving to ethics committee boards, archival of records and regular auditing of the ethics committee. The central regulatory body of India CDSCO governing the conduct of clinical trial, in October 2012, under the guidance of Drugs Technical Advisory Board, laid down three major amendments in schedule Y. The present article discusses one of the new amendments laid down recently in schedule Y under rule 122 DD which states the requirements and guidelines needed for registration of ethics committees in India.","PeriodicalId":10446,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Research and Regulatory Affairs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80072168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is important that genuinely effective treatments have a high chance of succeeding whilst treatments that will fail at phase III are screened out. Because of the high number of treatments available for testing and limited resources and patients available, it is increasingly of interest to apply novel designs to improve the efficiency of phase II trials. This paper shall argue that phase II presents the most promising area for applying novel designs and will review some recent developments in three classes of novel design: group-sequential designs, multi-arm designs, and enrichment designs. All three types of design considerably improve the efficiency of phase II trials on average and also ensure that patients are more likely to be treated with the best available treatment for them. Although the designs have drawbacks, the considerable advantages mean that these designs will become increasingly important in phase II.","PeriodicalId":10446,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Research and Regulatory Affairs","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75502219","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
