Organization for the Study of Communication Language and Gender
The 1995 Gender Workshop provided an opportunity to review the 1993 Guideline and to consider the need to provide further clarification. While there is now a widespread consensus that important scientific questions about gender-based biology and other population group effects can be addressed by appropriate clinical trial designs, much more scientific information and research is needed in all areas of drug development to delineate the best possible approaches. Questions about the hormonal effects of drugs and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic gender differences are not easy to resolve. An especially valuable area of focus might be whether in vitro studies in human tissues can be used predictively to rule in or rule out a possible gender effect. If successful, the capability of using these relatively low-cost approaches in a predictive way might ultimately reduce clinical trial costs. By learning more about gender effects, we will also be able to understand better about how medical therapies work, not only in population subsets, but also in the overall population. The need to clarify and refine basic principles of study design also becomes apparent as the best approaches to develop useful gender information are sought. Drawing on the deliberations of the 1995 Gender Workshop and working collaboratively with academia, industry, government, and other individuals and groups, FDA expects to identify further information and recommendations to assist sponsors in defining when a gender or other population group effects are clinically important.
