The Us

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has been regulating human islets for allotransplantation as a biologic drug in the US. Consequently, the requirement of a biological license application (BLA) approval before clinical use of islet transplantation as a standard of care procedure has stalled the development of the field for the last 20 years. Herein, we provide our commentary to the multiple FDA’s position papers and guidance for industry arguing that BLA requirement has been inappropriately applied to allogeneic islets, which was delivered to the FDA Cellular, Tissue and Gene Therapies Advisory Committee on 15 April 2021. We provided evidence that BLA requirement and drug related regulations are inadequate in reassuring islet product quality and potency as well as patient safety and clinical outcomes. As leaders in the field of transplantation and endocrinology under the “Islets for US Collaborative” designation, we examined the current regulatory status of islet transplantation in the US and identified several anticipated negative consequences of the BLA approval. In our commentary we also offer an alternative pathway for islet transplantation under the regulatory framework for organ transplantation, which would address deficiencies of in current system.

Despite the excellent benefit-to-risk ratio for human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination and recommendations for its routine use from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), significant controversy surrounding HPV vaccination continues to exist. In light of this controversy and continued low rates of vaccination among U.S. adolescents, the Pediatric Pharmacy Advocacy Group (PPAG) endorses the safety and efficacy of HPV vaccination and agrees with ACIP recommendations for protection of the U.S. population against the potentially severe consequences of HPV. The PPAG recommends that all eligible individuals undergo vaccination. We further recommend that pediatric pharmacists participate in the education of patients and their families and serve as advocates for HPV vaccination. This document serves as an update to the 2008 PPAG position statement.1

The Relationship

The 1994 and 1995 JRME articles authored by the Research Advisory Committee had as their central theme the relationship between theory and practice. In the 1994 article, the RAC described a new type of research session called “Reflecting on Practice” that was introduced at NCTM meetings to facilitate connections between research and practice, and between researchers, teachers, and teacher educators. In the 1995 article, the RAC presented a draft of NCTM's revised position statement on research in mathematics education. The RAC clarified that its primary goal when developing the statement was “to better reflect NCTM's efforts to have the teaching community both partake of, and parricipatc in, scholarly inquiry” (RAC, 1995, p. 301). The RAC extends the focus on the relationship between theory and practice in this year's article by considering two further issues. The first concerns the types of justifications given for new approaches to materials development and teacher development, and the second concerns the relation of both materials development and teacher development to research.
