What does the FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) provide?

  1. List of approved drugs

  2. Drug pricing information

  3. News reports on regulatory developments

  4. Regulatory and business development references

The correct answer is: Regulatory and business development references

The FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) is responsible for regulating the safety and effectiveness of prescription and over-the-counter drugs in the United States. CDER provides regulatory and business development references to ensure that pharmaceutical companies comply with the necessary regulations and standards for drug approval and marketing. These references include guidelines, regulatory requirements, and information on the drug development process. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the primary role of the FDA CDER. While the FDA does provide a list of approved drugs, drug pricing information, and news reports on regulatory developments, it is the CDER specifically that focuses on regulatory and business development references related to drug evaluation and research.
