PART 1: FIRST-IN-CLASS AGENTS

The FDA approved 54 new drugs and biologics of note in 2014. Thirty-four new drugs are pharmacologically similar to others already marketed (see Part 2 of this chapter). The remaining 20 represent first-in-class agents indicated for the management of cancers, cardiovascular risk, hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, insomnia, inflammatory bowel disease, leishmaniasis, lipodystrophy, mucopolysaccharidosis, onychomycosis, and pulmonary fibrosis, and for immunization against serogroup B meningococcal disease (eTable 68–1).
