*Federal Register* notice: FDA has announced a pilot meeting program to allow sponsors to discuss the use of complex innovative trial design (CID) approaches in medical product development. Meetings under the pilot program will be conducted by CDER or CBER. For each sponsor whose meeting request is granted, the agency will permit two meetings that will provide an opportunity for medical product developers and FDA to discuss regulatory approaches for CID.
