This guidance expands on principles described in FDA’s existing guidance documents related to this topic by providing additional recommendations for the planning, design, conduct, and analysis of an oncology MRCT that may facilitate FDA’s assessment of applicability of the data to the U.S. population with the cancer being investigated and to U.S. medical practice.
