Forum Update: Supporting Community-Led Discussion
The forum was created as a space for shared learning and peer support, and as the community grows, we want to lean more fully into that purpose.
Going forward, PAAB will be taking a more listening-first role in forum discussions. Rather than responding immediately to every question, we’ll be encouraging members to engage with one another, share experiences, and help build collective understanding. PAAB will continue to monitor conversations and will step in to:
- Correct any misunderstandings
- Provide guidance when questions remain unanswered after a few days
- Support discussions where official clarification is needed
Our goal is to foster a collaborative, trusted community where knowledge is shared and strengthened by everyone’s contributions.
Thank you for being part of the conversation.
Clarity on study types for messages in unbranded tools
-
For an unbranded tool, can you give a list of study types that might be permissible for disease messages (diagnosis and symptoms), therapeutic options messages and for class MOA messages?

Hi @natbourre
Please see Q&A 214. For anything discussing disease burdens, please also see our recent guidance document Guidance on the Presentation of Burdens of Disease in Advertising, specifically section 5.3.
