Following is an excerpt:
One combination products attorney praised FDA's new pilot program. "I think the improvements being targeted by the Council are on the money," wrote James A. Boiani, a member of the law firm Epstein, Becker & Green, in a statement to Inside Health Policy.
Boiani said the announcement demonstrated FDA is interested in developing the ICCR process in a transparent fashion.
"I get a sense from this announcement and other recent communications about the Council that its opting for a more engaged, collaborative approach, which is welcome news; when it comes to developing regulatory policy, the best results come from engagement with stakeholders, not work behind closed doors," wrote Boiani.
