Abstract

This article describes the current collaborative effort of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Infectious Diseases Society of America to generate new general and disease/organism-specific guidelines for the evaluation of anti-infective agents. The description includes examples of proposed changes from draft documents. If approved and implemented, the envisioned changes should enable investigators and sponsors to improve the quality of clinical trials of anti-infective drugs. The ultimate goal is to provide physicians with the best information about new drugs and thus to enhance the care of patients with infectious diseases.
