However, accelerated approval comes with a condition: sponsors must conduct confirmatory trials to verify the drug’s anticipated clinical benefits using robust outcome measures. Concerns have arisen over delays—sometimes spanning over 7–8 years—that may expose patients to risks before confirmatory trials are completed.

Despite accumulating learnings from early phases, several uncertainties remain to be addressed when designing pivotal trials. Adaptive trials can help mitigate uncertainties; however, the trade-offs and their impact differ in the confirmatory setting. Quantitative strategies can help inform decisions and optimize choices.
