Ep. 71 - Pazdur Unplugged: FDA Director Richard Pazdur on the Past, Future of Cancer Treatments
Richard Pazdur, director of FDA’s Oncology Center of Excellence, joined FDA in 1999. Looking back on his 25th anniversary, he draws a line between unpopular decisions at the start of his tenure and a surge in cancer drug development over the last 20 years. He believes this and other lessons from the regulation of oncology can be applied broadly across FDA. The BioCentury Show discussed these lessons, as well as Pazdur’s views about advisory committees, pragmatic trials, dose optimization and more.
