Before a potential new therapy can be administered to patients, it must go through several clinical trial phases designed to test the drug or device for safety and effectiveness. For many new treatments, it will take approximately ten years for the therapy to progress from initial discovery to being approved. Clinical trials alone take six to seven years on average to complete.

FDA’s Office of Prescription Drug Promotion (OPDP) issued the first regulatory action letter for 2022. This one has some notable characteristics. As has been frequently noted, enforcement actions by OPDP have diminished considerably over the years. Another characteristic of recent enforcement actions over the past several years is that smaller, less well-known companies have mostly been the recipients of letters from OPDP.
