What are the different formal FDA meeting formats?

There are three meeting formats for the formal FDA meeting types. They include:

1. Face-to-Face Interactions
2. Teleconference Meetings
3. Written Response Only

Note: The FDA now considers “face-to-face” meetings to include “in-person meetings and virtual meetings on IT platforms that allow for both audio and visual communication.” Therefore, for the INTERACT and Pre-IND sections in this playbook, we focus on teleconference and written response options. Please refer to the latest guidance, Update on In-Person Face-to-Face Formal Meetings with the FDA (fda.gov) for more information.
