Under sections 201, 505, and 701 of 

the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic 

Act (21 U.S.C. 321, 355, and 371), FDA 

has the authority to issue regulations 

governing the use of radioactive drugs 

for basic informational research. Section 

361.1 (21 CFR 361.1) sets forth specific 

regulations regarding the establishment 

and composition of Radioactive Drug 

Research Committees and their role in 

approving and monitoring basic 

research studies utilizing 

radiopharmaceuticals. No basic research 

study involving any administration of a 

radioactive drug to research subjects is 

permitted without the authorization of 

an FDA approved Radioactive Drug 

Research Committee (§ 361.1(d)(7)). The 

type of research that may be undertaken 

with a radiopharmaceutical drug must 

be intended to obtain basic information 

and not to carry out a clinical trial. The 

types of basic research permitted are 

specified in the regulation, and include 

studies of metabolism, human 

physiology, pathophysiology, or 

biochemistry.

Section 361.1(c)(2) requires that each 

Radioactive Drug Research Committee 

shall select a chairman, who shall sign 

all applications, minutes, and reports of 

the committee. Each committee shall 

meet at least once each quarter in which 

research activity has been authorized or 

conducted. Minutes shall be kept and 

shall include the numerical results of 

votes on protocols involving use in 

human subjects. Under § 361.1(c)(3),
