Abstract

The gap between development of exploratory biomarkers and their acceptance in drug development and regulatory review is a hurdle in the development of better therapies. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has developed a regulatory process for biomarker qualification to accelerate the process by which new biomarkers are integrated in the development of therapies.
