HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE FINAL ICH M12 GUIDELINE “DRUG INTERACTION STUDIES” — WHAT’S CHANGED AND CONSIDERATIONS FOR YOUR IND PROGRAMS
The ICH M12 Guideline was finalized on May 21st, 2024, after extensive review of industry and other comments. The Guideline was the culmination of the extensive work by the Expert Working Group. The Expert Working Group was formed in 2018 and was a committee of experts charged with harmonizing member regulatory agencies’ guidelines to create a single guideline that would be used across all member countries. The new Guideline replaced the corresponding drug interaction guidance documents from the US FDA, EMA, and PMDA, among others.
This presentation offered perspectives on changes from the draft ICH M12 and differences between in vitro drug-drug interaction guidance from the relevant US FDA, EMA, and PMDA guidance documents, as well as how to plan drug development strategies to meet the expectations of the final ICH M12 Guideline.
