FDA GLP-1 RA suicidality update: preliminary review finds no causal link

Urgency: High

1) Verify your internal signal assessment narrative for GLP-1 RAs reflects FDA’s statement that the preliminary evaluation does not suggest a causal link; 2) Check whether any company-facing statements, FAQs, or labeling change proposals referencing suicidality need to be updated for consistency with FDA’s current public position; 3) Log the FDA update in regulatory intelligence tracking and maintain monitoring for further FDA conclusions or requests (including the linked 13 Jan 2026 communication).

MHRA confirms UK clinical trial safety reporting guidance is effective

Urgency: High

Safety lead to: (1) perform a UK-clinical-trial safety reporting gap assessment against MHRA’s effective guidance sections (MedDRA coding; AE/SAE; RSI governance; SUSARs; annual safety reporting; USMs; serious breaches; temporary suspension), (2) update controlled SOPs/WIs and training records to reflect “effective” status as of 28 Apr 2026, and (3) document deviations/gaps and open CAPA where needed for ongoing UK trials and new submissions.
