DIOG - DIOGENES FDA Regulatory Updates





Content



DIOGENES is a comprehensive source of information relating to
the regulation of drugs and medical devices by the US Food and
Drug Administration (FDA). The database contains unpublished
FDA documents acquired under the Freedom of Information Act
such as Drug and Device Approval information, The Enforcement
Report, and Medical Device Reports.

Use DIOGENES to answer such questions as:
- which pharmaceutical firms have FDA approval to produce
generic equivalents of Valium?
- what are the Federally-mandated performance standards for
sunbeds?
- what tests were conducted to determine the safety and efficacy
of Tagamet?
- what animal studies must be conducted before a contraceptive
can be clinically tested?
- under what emergency circumstances can unapproved medical
devices be used?

Sources
FDA sources include Premarket Notifications (510(k)s), PMAs
(Premarket Approvals), Medical Device Reports, New Drug
Application Lists, and records of The Enforcement Report.

Premarket Notifications (510(k)s) - updated monthly:
DIOGENES lists every device ever declared substantially
equivalent, and therefore allowed onto the market under the
Premarket Notification provisions of the Medical Device
Amendments of 1976. Information available includes device name
and classification, regulating advisory committee, sponsoring
company, date of FDA decision, and 510(k) number.

Premarket Approvals (PMAs) - monthly:
Supplementing the listing of 510(k)s is the listing of all
medical devices approved under the Premarket Approval provisions
of the Medical Device Amendments of 1976. Individual entries
include device name and manufacturer, date of approval, and
regulating advisory committee.

Medical Device Reports (MDRs) - quarterly:
Covering back to the beginning of the Medical Device Reporting
plan in 1985, this data set includes a record describing each
adverse device experience submitted to the FDA.

New Drug List (NDL) - monthly:
The DIOGENES database includes a listing of every drug ever
allowed onto the U.S. market since approval requirements began
in 1938. Individual records include drug generic and trade
names, manufacturer, dosage strength and form, New Drug
Approval (NDA) or Abbrviated New Drug Approval (ANDA) number,
and date of approval. For affected drugs, date of market
withdrawal, date of withdrawal of FDA permission to market,
Waxman-Hatch patent number, patent expiry, and patent
exclusivity dates are also included.

The Enforcement Report - weekly:
Covering back to 1984, each record of The Enforcement Report
describes an instance of FDA-recorded field corrections and
product recalls, indexed by company, product, recall number,
extent of recall and recall narrative. The Enforcement Report
describes pharmaceuticals, medical devices, biologics, foods,
radiological products, veterinary medical products, and
cosmetics.
