ANS: A w
The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938 authorized the FDA to determine the
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
safety of all drugs before marketing. Later amendments and acts helped tighten FDA
w w w w w w w w w w w w w
control and ensure drug safety. The Durham Humphrey Amendment defines the kinds of
w w w w w w w w w w w w w
drugs that cannot be used safely without medical supervision and restricts their sale to
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
prescription by a licensed practitioner. The Controlled Substances Act addresses only
w w w w w w w w w w w
controlled substances and their categorization. The Kefauver Harris Drug Amendment
w w w w w w w w w w
ensures drug efficacy and greater drug safety. Drug manufacturers are required to prove to
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
the FDA the effectiveness of their products before marketing them.

8. Which action would the FDA take to expedite drug development and approval for an
w w w w w w w w w w w w w
woutbreak of smallpox? w w
a. List smallpox as a health orphan disease.
w w w w w w
b. Omit the preclinical research phase.
w w w w
c. Extend the clinical research phase. w w w w
d. Fast track the investigational drug.
w w w w
ANS: D w
Once the Investigational New Drug Application has been approved, the drug can receive
w w w w w w w w w w w w
highest priority within the agency, which is called fast tracking. A smallpox outbreak
w w w w w w w w w w w w w
would become a priority concern in the world. Orphan diseases are not researched in a
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
priority manner. Preclinical research is not omitted. Extending any phase of the research
w w w w w w w w w w w w w
would mean a longer time to develop a vaccine. The FDA must ensure that all phases of the
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
preclinical and clinical research phase have been completed in a safe manner.
