Con­gress lays out its de­mands for FDA in 2023 — on every­thing from ma­chine learn­ing to im­munother­a­pies

As the US House Ap­pro­pri­a­tions com­mit­tee marks up a bill to­day to pro­vide the FDA with a 10% bud­get boost in FY 2023, the com­mit­tee al­so of­fered up a long wish list of top­ics that it wants the FDA to ad­dress.

The list ranges from urg­ing CDER to bet­ter use ar­ti­fi­cial in­tel­li­gence and ma­chine learn­ing to en­hance its re­view process for sup­ple­ments or re­pur­posed drug can­di­dates “by lever­ag­ing au­to­mat­ed da­ta col­lec­tion, in­te­gra­tion, and ad­vanced sta­tis­ti­cal meth­ods,” to en­cour­age the FDA to pub­lish guid­ance for cell ther­a­py de­vel­op­ers, to in­creas­ing staff in key ar­eas.
