End-stage Renal Disease Collaboration Committee, Work group, Advisory group, or Task Force CMS, FDA NIDDK, NIBIB Participating agencies and patient and physician groups are collaborating to help the medical product development community to understand the challenges and milestones needed to achieve the goal of a successful alternative to dialysis. Research, regulatory, and reimbursement needs for such a product are discussed in phone calls and structured meetings.
Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee Committee, Work group, Advisory group, or Task Force FDA NICHD The Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee (the Committee) advises the Commissioner or designee in discharging responsibilities as they relate to helping to ensure safe and effective drugs for human use and, as required, any other product for which the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has regulatory responsibility.
Environmental Phthalate Exposures in Pregnancy in Relation to Fetal and Placental Development Research Initiative CDC NIEHS The purpose of this collaboration is to characterize exposure to phthalates and phthalate alternatives in pregnant women by measuring phthalate and phthalate alternative metabolites in urine samples from 8 visits in pregnancy. We will examine associations between these markers and fetal growth as well as ultrasound measures of placental development.
