Abstract: A study was conducted to evaluate the structure, operations, and preliminary findings from the Research on Adverse Drug events And Reports (RADAR) project and related dissemination efforts by pharmaceutical suppliers and the US Food and Drug Administration. The result showed that a new, clinically based, hypothesis-driven approach to postmarketing surveillance may supplement existing regulatory surveillance and improve patients safety.
