1. Share how PCORI, industry, FDA, patients and other healthcare stakeholders are advancing the cause of
Our objectives for today
healthcare stakeholders are advancing the cause of “patient-centeredness” and engagement in clinical research;
2. Discuss how increased patient engagement will lead to changes in clinical trial processes;
3. Begin to understand how these paradigm changes will impact the pharmaceutical industry’s efforts in clinical research.

severity of disease condition and degree of unmet medical need— clinical context
• Patient-Focused Drug Development is part of FDA commitments under PDUFA V– Convene at least 20 meetings on specific diseases – Patient perspective helps inform our understanding of
the context for the assessment of benefit-risk and decision making for new drugs
– Input can inform FDA analysis both during and outside of review
• Disease areas that are chronic, symptomatic, and affect functioning and activities of daily living
Which 20 Disease Areas?Criteria Used for Nomination
g y g
• Disease areas for which important aspects of that disease are not formally captured in clinical trials
• Disease areas for which there are currently no therapies or very few therapies, or the available therapies do not directly affects how a patients feels, functions, or survives
• Disease areas that reflect a range of severity
• Disease areas that have a severe impact on identifiable sub-populations (such as children or the elderly)
• Disease areas that represent a broad range in terms of size of the affected population

• In September 2012, FDA announced a preliminary set of diseases as potential meeting candidates
P bli i t th i ti ll t d th h
Identifying Disease Areasfor the Patient-Focused Meetings
– Public input on these nominations was collected through an online docket and at a public meeting held in October 2012
– Over 4,500 comments were submitted, which addressed over 90 disease areas
– FDA carefully considered these public comments and the perspectives of our drug review divisions at FDA
• FDA selected a set of 16 diseases selected to be the focus of meetings for fiscal years 2013-2015g y– This set was published in the Federal Register in April 2013– Another public process will be initiated in 2015 to determine the
set for fiscal years 2016-2017
Disease symptoms and daily impactsthat matter most to patients (draft questions)

What Questions to Ask?
1. Of all the symptoms that you experience because of your condition, which 1-3 symptoms have the most significant impact?
2. Are there specific activities that are important to you but that you cannot do at all or as fully as you would like because of your condition?
3 H h diti d it t3. How has your condition and its symptoms changed over time?
4. What worries you most about your condition?

y p
2. How well does your current treatment regimen treat the most significant symptoms of your disease?
3. What are the most significant downsides to your current treatments, and how do they affect your daily life? y
4. Assuming there is no complete cure for your condition, what specific things would you look for in an ideal treatment?

Purpose of Engagement Awards
Projects designed to provide “wrap-around” support and enhance impact of our major research awards
NOT meant to be research, but meant to: Support knowledge of PCORI’s work, and inform about our program efforts
Training and development of “non-usual suspects” and others
Disseminate the results of our research to promote implementation into practice
Smaller awards, up to $250,000 total, and less than two years in length
Other objectives:Other objectives: Engage new groups who have not previously been involved with PCORI
Develop new mechanisms for disseminating research findings
Promote research done differently by supporting the engagement and partnering

Avoid relying entirely on patient partners who have dual roles on the project, e.g., relying on stakeholders or researchers who also happen to be patients. Including one or more patient partners who have no other role on the project is important.
