FDA plays a critical role in protecting the United States from threats such as emerging infectious diseases, including the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. FDA is committed to providing timely guidance to support response efforts to this pandemic. FDA is issuing this guidance to provide general considerations to assist sponsors in preparing pre-investigational new drug application (pre- IND) meeting requests for COVID-19 related drugs1 for the duration of the COVID-19 public health emergency. As described in further detail in this guidance, FDA recommends that sponsors initiate all drug development interactions for COVID-19 related drugs through IND meeting requests. This guidance is intended to provide sponsors with an initial framework to help organize their preIND meeting requests during the COVID-19 public health emergency. This document is intended to complement other guidance documents providing recommendations regarding drug development programs for COVID-19, including the guidance for industry COVID-19: Developing Drugs and Biological Products for Treatment or Prevention (May 2020).
