Advisory Committee Meeting

AdCom

FDA & Regulatory

An FDA Advisory Committee (AdCom) meeting convenes independent external experts to review a drug’s data and vote on whether its benefits outweigh its risks. The vote is non-binding, but the FDA usually follows it, so AdCom outcomes are major pre-PDUFA catalysts.
