FDA Approved Drugs: Changes to Approved Drugs

268
Post-approval, manufacturers may modify an approved new or generic drug product. Such modifications can encompass alterations in the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API), manufacturing process, formulation, batch size, manufacturing site, and container closure system (FDA Guidance for Industry, April 2004). Often, a drug product may undergo multiple changes.These modifications require careful evaluation to determine their potential impact on the drug product's identity, strength, quality,...

Global Climate Change

28.9K
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

Introduction to Global Positioning System

518
The Global Positioning System (GPS) revolutionized positioning on Earth, providing precise location data through satellite ranging. The GPS system was developed in 1978 by the U.S. Department of Defense  for military use, and it became available for civilian applications in 1983, transforming fields including navigation, fleet management, and time synchronization for telecommunications systems.GPS consists of satellites in medium Earth orbit, about 20,200 kilometers above the surface,...

Errors in Global Positioning System

353
Global Positioning System (GPS) technology has revolutionized navigation and positioning, but its accuracy is often compromised by various errors. These errors, stemming from environmental, satellite, and receiver-related factors, require careful mitigation to ensure reliable performance across applications.Atmospheric ErrorsGPS signals travel through the Earth’s ionosphere and troposphere, introducing delays which affect accuracy. The ionosphere is strongly influenced by charged particles,...

Global Regulatory Systems

678
Global regulatory systems in bacteria enable rapid and coordinated responses to environmental changes by integrating sensory inputs with gene expression, ensuring efficient adaptation to fluctuating conditions. Key global regulatory mechanisms include regulons, two-component systems, sigma factors, and secondary messengers.Regulons and Global RegulatorsA regulon is a collection of genes and operons controlled by a common global regulator. These regulators enable bacteria to prioritize resource...

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a vasodilator involved in migraine pathogenesis.
  • Migraine affects numerous adults, necessitating novel preventive treatments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize the development milestones of galcanezumab.
  • To detail galcanezumab's initial approval for migraine prevention.

Main Methods:

  • Review of galcanezumab's development pathway.
  • Analysis of regulatory approval processes (FDA and EMA).

Main Results:

  • Galcanezumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting CGRP, was approved by the US FDA in September 2018.
  • The EMA issued a positive opinion for galcanezumab for migraine prophylaxis in the same month.
  • Galcanezumab is also in Phase III trials for cluster headache prevention.

Conclusions:

  • Galcanezumab represents a significant advancement in migraine preventive therapy.
  • The development and approval of galcanezumab highlight the therapeutic potential of CGRP-targeted treatments.
