John "Barr" Weiner, J.D. at April 9, 2019 Luncheon Speaker Series

The FDAAA kicked off its 2019 speaker luncheon series on April 9, 2019 with guest speaker John "Barr" Weiner, J.D., Associate Director for Policy, Office of Combination Products, for a very engaging discussion about recent developments and innovative new issues in the area of combination products.

Members enjoyed the delicious Jewel of India buffet, good company, and a great presentation by Mr. Weiner, who gave a broad overview of the office's current activities and hot topics in combination products and graciously fielded lots of good questions from the audience. We are extremely grateful for Mr. Weiner's time and for his willingness to engage in such a lengthy and fruitful discussion with the group.

Stay tuned for details on the next FDAAA speaker lunch!

FDAAA presents half-day program to the FDA Commissioner's Fellows

For ten years now, FDAAA has presented a half-day program to the FDA Commissioner's Fellows. The Fellows are people who are just starting their careers at FDA. Some were in the room in person, while others joined by webcast. The FDAAA speakers discuss their diverse FDA careers with an emphasis on lessons learned and advice to the Fellows.

Speakers at the program February 25 at White Oak were, left to right, Wayne Pines, Nancy Myers, Deb Autor, Joe Levitt and Susan Winckler.

The program also included Suzanne Junod, FDA historian, who retired three days later, on February 28. Suzanne has been an enthusiastic FDAAA supporter and has presented at all previous FDA Fellows sessions.

Anyone interested in participating in this session next year to tell about their years at FDA should contact Wayne Pines at wpines@apcoworldwide.com. We are looking to represent a range of Centers and experiences to help the next generation of FDAers!

So Glad You're Back, We Appreciate You FDAers

By: Deb Autor, Bob Brackett, Joe Levitt, Nancy Myers, and Susan Winckler

Bringing handshakes, hugs, notes of appreciation, words of encouragement, and a little light-hearted laughter with 100 Grand candy bars, the FDA Alumni Association worked to support both furloughed and non-furloughed FDAers who attended the FDA government shutdown event for staff on Jan. 25. The mood was clearly a mix of frustration and sadness, due to the situation. However, what was noteworthy was the true underlying camaraderie of FDA staff and their genuine happiness to engage and reconnect with each other after a long month of isolated insecurity. The event, which included several hundred FDA employees and many of the agency's most senior leaders, was a wonderful reminder of the unique culture that is FDA and how colleagues, show caring and concern for each other in a time of need.

The stories of hardship during the furlough were deeply affecting. The silver lining was the common theme that the need for financial security was often due to a situation in which an FDA employee was caring for their families, extended families or someone else in need. There are so many big hearts at our agency.

Kudos need to go to Commissioner Gottlieb and his leadership team on the way they tried to transparently handle this tough situation. Many a tweet was sent to share information and bolster morale, and to ensure FDAers felt appreciated. The information fair was a unique opportunity for senior management to see staff and explain the situation, and for staff to examine their options.

Now with a three-week reprieve as our political leaders explore how to fund the government's remaining annual appropriations, perhaps it is time to also ask how a non-profit, independent alumni organization like ours can improve its support for those who still serve at the FDA. Hopefully, the e-mail to furloughed employees that FDAAA sent was read by those who needed to hear our encouragement. But without a list of personal emails, we were limited to the age-old chain letter process. When we wanted to provide financial support, such as providing the food for the FDA sponsored event, we simply didn't have time to navigate a lengthy ethics review. If you are reading this and have ideas on how we might create a rapid response plan for unforeseen events like the shutdown, we would love to hear them. Please email info@fdaaa.com.

We were honored to be able to interact with FDA staff at a time of uncertainty, and we hope that we can find ways to expand upon those efforts. As Michael Rogers, Assistant Commissioner for Human and Animal Food Operations, said in a note he sent thanking the FDAAA for attending the event, "We have always said that FDA is a family, and it's the mission and the pride that we have for this Agency that creates and keeps that common bond between us. I just wanted to send you a quick note to say that we appreciate the gesture that shows that you were thinking of us during that difficult time." We were especially touched that Michael told us he shared the story of our attendance on a call with the field.

The FDA Alumni Association is proud of "Team FDA," with its caring dedication and professionalism. Now that the furlough is over, it is back to work and hopefully a smooth rest of 2019!

FDAAA Winter Celebration 2018 at Maggiano's Little Italy

On November 28, 2018, the FDA Alumni Association hosted its Winter Celebration at Maggiano's Little Italy in Friendship Heights. The event was widely attended and honored 11 current and former FDA Center Directors. With remarks by Joe Levitt, FDAAA also recognized Dr. Stephen Ostroff, who will be retiring from the agency early next year after a distinguished career in public service. Many thanks to the numerous sponsors who made this celebration possible. We look forward to many more fun events in 2019!

FDAAA Fall Luncheon Featuring Keith Flanagan, J.D.

On October 4, 2018, over 40 FDA Alumni Association members returned to the Jewel of India in Silver Spring for an informative discussion with Keith Flanagan, the Transition Lead for CDER's Policy Office of New Drugs (OND). As current and former FDA employees resisted multiple trips to the delicious buffet, Keith engaged in a substantive discussion about the OND Regulatory Modernization Program and the proposed structure of the OND Policy Office. We are thankful that Keith could take the time to meet with our members and it was wonderful to see so many familiar faces.

China FDA meets with FDAAA

Using DIA China as a Launch Pad: FDAAA Discusses Collaboration Agenda with Chinese National Drug Administration Department of International Cooperation

By: Nancy Myers, Deb Autor, and Jinje Hu

On a windy Tuesday, May 22, an FDA Alumni Association leadership delegation enjoyed a warm meeting with the Chinese equivalent of FDA, previously called CFDA and described at the meeting as the National Drug Administration (NDA) or Chinese National Drug Administration (CNDA). We were all in Beijing for DIA China 2018.

The meeting was intended to advance the friendship between FDAAA and NDA and identify areas of potential collaboration to most effectively advance global public health. The high-level Chinese officials made their interest clear: they see value in engaging FDAAA directly to gain insight into lessons learned and gain forward-leaning insight in several targeted areas. FDAAA expressed its sincere interest in engaging with the Chinese NDA and sharing the experiences in rapidly-developing areas of US FDA regulation as China engages in its transformational regulatory reform efforts.

Chinese NDA Participants included:

• Mr. Yuan Lin, Director General, Department of International Cooperation
• Ms. Jiang Lu, Director of Division of Bilateral Cooperation, Department of International Cooperation
• Mr. Zhang Gaotong, Consultant, Division of Bilateral Cooperation, Department of International Cooperation
• Ms. Liu Yuan, Principal Staff Member, Division of Bilateral Cooperation, Department of International Cooperation

The FDAAA delegation included:

• Deb Autor, FDAAA Board Member and Chair, Nominations Committee
• Jinjie Hu, Chair, FDAAA International Network
• Nancy Bradish Myers, FDAAA Board Chair

Director General Yuan opened the meeting, voicing appreciation for the FDAAA visit and our work. He walked the group through the evolution of his agency over the last few decades from SDA to SFDA to CFDA to the newly established, likely-to-be-called NDA (or possibly CNDA). He shared that the reformed NDA will focus on registration, supervision, and management of drugs, devices, and cosmetics.

Given that it is the prerogative of the National People's Congress to reevaluate the NDA every five years, frequent reforms will likely continue. The biggest difference with this most recent reorganization is that food safety is now shifted to the superior organization, SAMR (State Administration for Market Regulation), which he described as a minister-level agency, the equivalent to the level of our DHHS in the US.

Reform of the agency is now underway; it will occur in two phases, and is intended to strengthen drug regulation and adapt to the rapid development of innovation and the market economy. The ultimate goal for the leadership of China's NDA is to " provide better products for our people and improve efficiency of review and approval and quality of product."

Phase 1 began in August 2015 with the issuing of a directive No. 44, issued by State Council of China; this directive is intended to improve the quality of review and approval and resolve the backlog, in addition to improving the quality of generics, encouraging innovation, and improving transparency of review and approval.

After over two years of reform, NDA can point to what it considers substantial results. The CDE staff totaled less than 200 when Phase 1 began; it is now over 800. The registration application backlog, which was over 22,000 in 2015, is now less than 4,000. Mr. Yung talked about how the speed of review and approval has been increased dramatically. He believes the philosophy of regulators in China has changed and thus has sent a clear signal to industry that the agency is facilitating innovation.

Under Phase 2, which began in August of 2017, the General Office of Central Committee and State Council jointly issued a directive on review and approval and innovation in order to encourage innovation of drugs and devices to better serve public health.

Mr. Yuan pointed out several priorities for reform:

1. The first reform focus is to encourage better new drugs and devices - not just domesticly-made products, but also imported ones.
1. China is putting in place policies to advance innovation within China and to accelerate the approval of innovative new drugs from outside China to meet unmet medical needs.
2. The second priority for China will be to improve the accessibility of medical products. Director General Yuan recognized the value of lower cost drugs and referred to FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb recent statements on the need to lower drug prices.
1. Though China has a big focus on supporting innovation, he indicated that the country will need to balance access to high priced, innovative drugs with use of high quality and efficacious generics that are the equivalent of brand name drugs.
2. He discussed the need and steps China is taking to improve the quality of generic drugs as it works to ensure that generic drugs are the same as RLD.

This reform will likely borrow from key learnings from the US FDA, such as: creation of the Orange book, IND review (in particular, the multi-disciplinary subject expert team review model for clinical trial applications), and establishing patent protection and patent linkage systems.

Part of this reform agenda has been to bring the Chinese system more in-line with international standards. For example, China joined a number of important international organizations like the ICH, ICMRA (International Coalition of Medicines Regulatory Authorities}, and IMDRF (International Medical Device Regulators Forum). The participants in the meeting pointed to the fact that China chaired the IMDRF meeting in Shanghai in March this year.

Recently China also applied to be ICH management committee member, hoping to make an active contribution to ICH while learning from ICH and work to harmonize its standards with those of other countries.

We took the opportunity to highlight FDAAA's recent strategic planning efforts and its vision for assisting regulators globally. We shared examples of innovative, supportive collaborations our volunteer have initiated supporting regulators like our FDA Alumni Advisor Program established initially with FDA's Office of Regulatory Affairs. We congratulated NDA on its vision for a modernized medical product review process which is focused on safety, efficacy and innovation. We also recognized NDA for recently being elected to be a Management Committee member of ICH at the recent June 7th, 2018 ICH Annual meeting in Japan.

During the meeting, NDA and FDAAA agreed that there were a few areas of mutual interest and possible meaningful cooperation that should be considered in terms of sharing expertise and experience. These areas are:

• Gene therapy
• Digital medicines
• Treatment of infectious diseases
• Biosimilars
• Generics, and
• Combination Products

Our next step, from the FDAAA perspective, will be to ask the FDAAA International Network to meet and propose to the Board an approach for the NDA and to identify the most impactful synergies where we might collaborate with NDA. Although our resources are finite, this is a great opportunity to help leverage our expertise for the benefit of global health. We will be seeking FDAAA volunteers to staff this initiative and share their expertise.

Director General Yuan and his NDA colleagues indicated that they look forward to our feedback and assigned a specific point person with whom we should work.

We ended the meeting agreeing that NDA and FDAAA share the same goal - to protect and promote the public health. We acknowledged the value of vigorously exploring how we might work together to accomplish this important global objective.

Spring Fling 2018

On June 12, 2018, the FDA Alumni Association hosted its 9th Annual Spring Fling in the Great Room at FDA Headquarters in White Oak, MD. Over 70 current and former FDA staff attended the event and enjoyed delicious BBQ catered by Red Hot & Blue.

This year's Spring Fling was especially meaningful as the FDAAA honored Jim Benson, a founding member for the Board of FDAAA and former Acting Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner and Director of the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH). Joe Levitt, Former Chair of FDAAA, presented Jim's wife, Cynthia Benson, with a plaque to commemorate the naming of the scholarship fund for students enrolled in the Temple University School of Pharmacy's Quality Assurance/Regulatory Affairs graduate program in honor of Jim. CDRH's current Director, Dr. Jeff Shuren, also spoke about Jim's service, noting his dedication to CDRH and to FDA, and his commitment to promoting public health.

Dr. Gottlieb informally addressed the group, highlighting FDA's accomplishments during his first year as Commissioner as well as the Agency's top public health priorities. The Commissioner took questions from the group on a range of topics, including plans for the CDER/OND reorganization, the 2019 budget request, how the Agency can help manage the ongoing opioid epidemic, and how technology has allowed the Agency to communicate more effectively to consumers.

We are thankful to everyone who joined the Spring Fling and look forward to continuing the tradition!

FDAAA Names Temple Scholarship in Memory of Jim Benson

FDAAA has decided to name its scholarship fund for students enrolled in the Temple University School of Pharmacy's Quality Assurance/Regulatory Affairs graduate program in honor of Jim Benson, a founding member of the Board of FDAAA and FDA's former Acting/Deputy Commissioner and CDRH Director. Jim recently passed away.

The FDAAA Centennial Scholarship Award was created in 2006 in honor of FDA's centennial. The endowment created the first scholarship in the school's QA/RA program.

At the time, FDAAA said it established the endowment not only to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Pure Food and Drugs Act but also to encourage academic training in regulatory and quality issues. FDAAA selected Temple after reviewing graduate programs of schools nationwide.

The fund will now be known as the James S. Benson FDAAA/FDA Centennial Scholarship Fund.

In 2006 donations to the fund came from pharmaceutical trade associations, including the PhRMA Foundation, drug firms, and FDAAA members.

Nancy Myers, chair of FDAAA. Urged current members who want to honor Jim Benson to donate to the fund.

"Jim was a highly regarded and admired member of the FDA and FDAAA communities and I can think of no better way to honor him than to name this program in his memory and for current FDAAA members to contribute to his memory, "she said. "The FDAAA Executive Committee believed that adding Jim's name to the Temple award is a fitting recognition of his contributions to the FDA community and to FDAAAA."

Joe Levitt, former chair of FDAAA, said naming of the scholarship fund for Jim was especially appropriate. "Jim was always a champion of education in his many years at the FDA. He began his career in the education division of radiological health. Plus, Jim was a driving force in the creation of the FDAAA/Temple Scholarship Fund by spearheading the fundraising efforts that created the initial endowment of the program."

Jim's wife Cynthia has been invited to attend the June 12 Spring Fling and to accept the honor in Jim's memory. Cynthia is an FDA Alumna, having worked for several decades in CDRH.

Christopher Van Vessem, Assistant Dean For Development and Alumni Relations, Temple University School of Pharmacy, remarked, "I am sorry to hear that Jim passed away. What a fitting gesture to make on Jim's behalf."

Temple University School of Pharmacy is a pioneer in providing advanced academic coursework in quality assurance and regulatory affairs, which refer to the quality practices and regulations governing the pharmaceutical, medical device, biotechnology, healthcare and consumer products, and related industries. The school was the first to create a master’s program in QA in 1968. In the 1990s, the school created the first academic certificate programs in drug development, clinical trial management, and medical device regulation.

Donations designated for the James S. Benson / FDA Centennial Scholarship Fund may be sent to:
