The approval process…pre-approval concerns…product labeling…clinical trials…adverse events reports…patent concerns…exclusivity. FDA law and regulations govern these critical aspects in the commercialization process for drugs, biologics, and devices. Recent court cases and high-profile litigation concerning FDA-regulated products have made it clear that it is essential for attorneys who do not have regulatory practices – but who deal with FDAregulated products – to understand the rules and regulations that impact the life sciences arena.
Products liability and patent litigation concerning FDA-regulated products often hinges on what happened during the pre-approval, approval, or post-approval periods.
Becoming well-versed in the essentials of the approval process and post-approval hurdles will enable you to much more effectively navigate the regulatory maze that plays a critical role in your cases and practice.
