Woodcock Requests Independent Review Of Biogen-FDA Aduhelm Interaction … Not Approval Decision

US FDA Acting Commissioner’s request for an HHS OIG review related to the Alzherimer’s drug approval is fairly narrow and continues to frustrate critics who believe the drug should not be approved. Woodcock expressed confidence in the CDER team in the letter to OIG, framing the investigation request as a move to help ensure public trust in the FDA.
