THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES

National Academy of Sciences

National Academy of Engineering

Institute of Medicine

National Research Council

The National Academy of Sciences is a private, nonprofit, self-perpetuating society of distinguished scholars engaged in scientific and engineering research, dedicated to the furtherance of science and technology and to their use for the general welfare. Upon the authority of the charter granted to it by the Congress in 1863, the Academy has a mandate that requires it to advise the federal government on scientific and technical matters. Dr. Bruce M. Alberts is president of the National Academy of Sciences.

The National Academy of Engineering was established in 1964, under the charter of the National Academy of Sciences, as a parallel organization of outstanding engineers. It is autonomous in its administration and in the selection of its members, sharing with the National Academy of Sciences the responsibility for advising the federal government. The National Academy of Engineering also sponsors engineering programs aimed at meeting national needs, encourages education and research, and recognizes the superior achievements of engineers. Dr. William A. Wulf is president of the National Academy of Engineering.

The Institute of Medicine was established in 1970 by the National Academy of Sciences to secure the services of eminent members of appropriate professions in the examination of policy matters pertaining to the health of the public. The Institute acts under the responsibility given to the National Academy of Sciences by its congressional charter to be an adviser to the federal government and, upon its own initiative, to identify issues of medical care, research, and education. Dr. Kenneth I. Shine is president of the Institute of Medicine.

The National Research Council was organized by the National Academy of Sciences in 1916 to associate the broad community of science and technology with the Academy's purposes of furthering knowledge and advising the federal government. Functioning in accordance with general policies determined by the Academy, the Council has become the principal operating agency of both the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering in providing services to the government, the public, and the scientific and engineering communities. The Council is administered jointly by both Academies and the Institute of Medicine. Dr. Bruce M. Alberts and Dr. William A. Wulf are chairman and vice chairman, respectively, of the National Research Council.

Preface

The Institute of Medicine's (IOM's) Roundtable on Research and Development of Drugs, Biologics, and Medical Devices evolved from the Forum on Drug Development, which was established in 1986. Sponsor representatives and IOM determined the importance of maintaining a neutral setting for discussions regarding long-term and politically sensitive issues justified the need to revise and enhance past efforts. The new Roundtable is intended to be a mechanism by which a broad group of experts from the public* and private sectors can be convened to conduct a dialogue and exchange information related to the development of drugs, biologics, and medical devices. Members have expertise in clinical medicine, pediatrics, clinical pharmacology, health policy, health insurance, industrial management, and product development; and they represent interests that address all facets of public policy issues.

From time to time, the Roundtable requests that a workshop be conducted for the purpose of exploring a specific topic in detail and obtaining the views of additional experts. Summaries of these workshops are prepared and disseminated to make the discussion readily accessible to the members of the Roundtable and other interested parties. Such workshop summaries are intended only to convey the presentations and discussion that took place at the workshop; they do not include any conclusions or recommendations on the part of the Roundtable or any further data or analysis of the issues.

The first workshop for the Roundtable was held on April 14 and 15, 1998, and was entitled Assuring Data Quality and Validity in Clinical Trials for Regulatory Decision Making. The summary on that workshop is available from IOM.

This workshop summary covers the second workshop, which was held on May 24 and 25, 1999, and which was aimed at facilitating the development and proper use of drugs, biologics, and medical devices for infants and children. It explores the scientific underpinnings and clinical needs, as well as the regulatory, legal, and ethical issues, raised by this area of research and development.

The environment for pediatric therapeutics has been altered by two important developments. First, the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act, enacted in 1997, provides incentives to pharmaceutical manufacturers that conduct acceptable studies with children and drugs identified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, to be ones for which information on the effects on the pediatric population would be beneficial. Second, in December 1998 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration published a final role that established certain requirements for studies with the pediatric population and drugs that significantly affect infants and children.

This workshop addressed many important issues. For example, many questions about the biochemistry of the enzymes involved in drug metabolism remain unanswered, in particular, the variability in the responses of individuals to drugs. The differences in the pharmacodynamics and pharmacogenetics of drug metabolism between children and adults remain undetermined. In addition, the influence of diet on the process of induction of these enzymes during the various stages of development deserves extensive study. Three sets of concerns need to be addressed to advance the development of rational therapeutics for infants and children:

  1. What is the scientific basis for differences in the responses to drugs of humans during their life spans, from the time of development in fetuses, infants, and young children through the process of aging?

  2. How do the metabolic, immune, and other systems of infants and children function differently at various stages of growth, what are the factors that influence these differences, and do they alter responses to drugs?

  3. What data need to be known to determine pediatric drug dosages? Can dosages be extrapolated from data for adults? How can responses to drugs be evaluated ethically in children?

This summary on the workshop is organized as topic-by-topic descriptions of the presentations and discussions that occurred during the workshop. Although the proceedings were rich and wide-ranging, this workshop summary does not purport to be a comprehensive or exhaustive exploration of the issues discussed. Nor does it represent a consensus of views or opinions from IOM or the Roundtable. Rather, it summarizes a dialogue among representatives from

different sectors and their thoughts on what research and what public policy issues may merit further attention. The editor's summary material at the beginning of each section provides some context and overview of the identified presentations.

On behalf of the members of the Roundtable, I express my warmest appreciation to the authors of this workshop summary for providing a timely and useful summary of the issues raised and the discussions that occurred.
