The FDA Fast Track Development Program is a designation of the United States Food and Drug Administration that accelerates the approval of investigational new drugs undergoing clinical trials. Such status is often given to agents that show promise in treating serious, life-threatening medical conditions for which no other drug either exists or works as well.
