FDA Lays Out Final Guidance for Buprenorphine Pumps, Injections
Sponsors may not have to conduct new efficacy trials for the anti-opioid treatment buprenorphine injections or implants if there are existing data for similar products, the FDA said in a final guidance.
Buprenorphine — most commonly known by the brand-name Suboxone — is one of three drugs, including methadone and naltrexone, to be approved for medication-assisted treatment for opioid addicts.
The FDA approved the first combination buprenorphine injection devices/medicines two years ago and now says it wants to clarify expectations for other delivery mechanisms.
