Draft Guidance for Industry on Animal Models--Essential Elements to Address Efficacy Under the Animal Rule
FDA is announcing the availability of a draft guidance entitled "Animal Models--Essential Elements to Address Efficacy Under the Animal Rule." When human efficacy studies are neither ethical nor feasible, animal efficacy studies may be relied on under the Animal Rule to support approval or licensure of a drug or biological product. This guidance identifies and discusses the critical characteristics of an animal model that should be addressed when developing products for approval under the Animal Rule. The guidance is intended to help sponsors determine whether the model meets the requirements of the Animal Rule.
