FDA drug approvals
fda.approvals
Every FDA drug/biologic approval event. Join generic_name to this tool's interventions to trace trial-to-approval.
186K records · 1939–present
Clinical trial registrations by sponsor, condition, status, or phase. Filter by intervention to find trials of a specific drug (a substring match over the full intervention/arm list — check interventions on the returned row, since a hit may be a comparator or placebo arm), by is_industry_sponsored to isolate pharma-sponsored trials, by enrollment_bucket for trial size, or has_results for whether results have posted. This is a single-source ClinicalTrials.gov tool — FDA approval actions live in the separate fda.approvals tool, joined by drug name.
