To make such interpretation more robust, a verification of (subjective) assessments by an independent panel of experts is frequently utilized.

ABSTRACT

The objective of this paper was to analyze how often adjudicated methods across efficacy and safety assessments were used in drug approvals in the European Union and United States in 2013 and early 2014.

Methods:
A total of 35 new molecular entities (NMEs) approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and 88 European Medicines Agency (EMA) approvals in Europe were included in this analysis.

Results:
[...]

Conclusion:
