Condition-Specific Meeting Reports and Other Information Related to Patients' Experience
This webpage provides links to certain publicly available external reports and resources relating to patient experience data. The patient community, patient advocates, researchers, drug developers, and federal agencies may find these materials useful. For specific questions related to a report or resource, FDA recommends reaching out to the point of contact listed on the cover page of the report.
This webpage hosts an alphabetical listing of condition-specific meeting reports and other information related to patients’ experience. These meetings include FDA-led Patient-Focused Drug Development (PFDD) meetings, Externally-led PFDD meetings, and Patient Listening Sessions. Other information includes proposed draft guidance relating to patient experience data, natural history studies, or other condition-specific background on condition and discussion of unmet medical need.
FDA’s Office of Patient Affairs is responsible for managing the Agency’s Patient Listening Session program. While conditions for which there were Patient Listening Sessions conducted are listed individually on this page, the link will direct you to the Patient Listening Session page where you will be able to see all the Patient Listening Session Summaries posted by the Office of Patient Affairs.
For more information regarding what types of resources may be included on this webpage, how to submit a publicly available website link to FDA, and other general questions, please review our Frequently Asked Questions. For EL-PFDD meeting summary reports, we request that links include a cover page or similar opening statement as part of their report or resource to provide information about the authors, funding, and related information.
Please note that although FDA reviews the materials that link to external pages before posting them to ensure that the materials are within the scope of the webpage, FDA does not assess their scientific merit or compliance with regulatory requirements. Our decision to post links to these materials does not reflect an endorsement of their authors, sponsors, or content.
