Clinical pharmacology research is a crucial component in the evaluation of new drugs, as it effectively reveals the drug’s metabolic processes, mechanisms of action and safety profile. The conditional approval policy typically accelerates the approval process based on limited clinical evidence, which often results in more simplified pre-marketing clinical pharmacology studies, shorter development timelines and smaller sample sizes. Oncology is the therapeutic area with the highest number of conditionally approved drugs, balancing the pre-marketing and post-marketing clinical pharmacology studies requires attention. This paper provides a comparative analysis of the pre-marketing and post-marketing clinical pharmacology studies for conditionally approved oncology drugs by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) in China and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), highlighting the research patterns for different drug types. The study finds that the FDA generally requires more comprehensive clinical pharmacology studies, particularly in special populations (such as patients with impaired liver or kidney function and pediatric populations) and drug interaction studies, while the NMPA’s requirements are relatively simplified. This paper aims to provide insights for the development of oncology drugs in China and discusses the implementation and requirements of clinical pharmacology studies in the development of new drugs under conditional approval.
