Whether one is working a start-up or an established company, the sooner a product can be brought to market the better—better for patients and better for the company. Over the last few years, the FDA has created numerous pathways to accelerate drug development. In addition to the long-standing Accelerated Approval process and Priority Review status, the FDA has also created both Fast Track and Breakthrough Therapy Designation. The differences and advantages of each program will be presented, along with experience to date in the industry, as well as general considerations that impact drug development programs considering these pathways must examine.
