- Requires the FDA to determine which pediatric study requirement applies to a drug before the applicant's initial study plan is due, and gives companies 45 days to respond in writing to a noncompliance letter before a penalty can be imposed for lack of due diligence.
- Extends the rare pediatric disease priority review voucher program through September 30, 2029, and changes the user fee timing for vouchers.
- Limits orphan drug exclusivity so that it applies only to the same approved use or indication, and authorizes $25,000,000 per fiscal year for 2026 through 2028 for pediatric drug studies.
- Establishes an Abraham Accords Office at the FDA to provide technical assistance and facilitate interactions with regulatory partners in Abraham Accords countries, and raises the Medicare Improvement Fund amount from $1,403,000,000 to $2,622,000,000.
