The Food and Drug Administration has partnered with the Critical Path Institute and National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences to launch the CURE Drug Repurposing Collaboratory, a forum for exchanging clinical practice data to inform potential new uses for existing drugs to treat unmet medical needs, beginning with COVID-19.
CDRC will use data collected via the CURE ID platform to aggregate global clinician treatment experiences and identify existing drugs that demonstrate possible treatment approaches warranting further study.
