How Alerts Work

Track an FDA decision for a specific drug

You want to know when the FDA decides on a new cancer drug. Go to the drug's page - for example, Keytruda - and click the bell icon. Select "PDUFA date reminders." You'll get an email 7 days before, 1 day before, and the day of the FDA decision.

Use case: investor tracking an approval catalyst, analyst preparing a note

Monitor all FDA decisions for a company

You follow Merck and want to know about every upcoming FDA decision across their pipeline. Go to the company page and click the bell icon. You'll get PDUFA reminders for every Merck drug with an upcoming decision date - one alert covers the entire pipeline.

Use case: portfolio manager with a position in the stock, BD professional tracking a competitor

Watch a clinical trial for status changes

A Phase 3 trial for Dupixent in a new indication is recruiting. You want to know when it moves to "active, not recruiting" (enrollment complete) or "completed" (results coming). Set a trial status alert on the drug page. You'll get an email when the trial status changes.

Use case: scientist tracking a competing program, patient advocate monitoring progress

Track a biosimilar launch timeline

Humira biosimilars are launching. Set a trial status alert on a biosimilar like Amjevita to track when new trials start or complete. Combine with a PDUFA alert on the company page to catch new biosimilar approval dates.

Use case: payer evaluating formulary decisions, pharmacist planning inventory

Set multiple alerts across a therapeutic area

You cover oncology and want to track all checkpoint inhibitor decisions. Set alerts on Keytruda, Opdivo, Libtayo, and Jemperli individually. Each alert is independent - you can pause or remove any one without affecting the others.

Use case: therapeutic area lead at a pharma company, healthcare journalist on the oncology beat
