FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation

FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation is a special status given to promising drugs that may offer significant improvement over existing treatments for serious or life-threatening conditions. It helps speed up the development and review process, allowing patients quicker access to new therapies. To receive this designation, a drug must show early evidence of substantial benefit, enabling developers and regulators to collaborate more closely. The goal is to bring effective treatments to patients faster while maintaining safety and efficacy standards.
