Warning Letter: A Warning Letter is an informal advisory, to a firm or clinical investigator, communicating the Agency's position on a matter but does not commit FDA to taking enforcement action. A Warning Letter is issued for significant regulatory violations that require prompt and adequate corrective actions. FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. Accessed on 2009-06-29 at: http://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/CDER/ucm090279.htm

NIDPOE: A NIDPOE letter informs the recipient clinical investigator that FDA is initiating an administrative proceeding to determine whether the clinical investigator should be disqualified from receiving investigational products pursuant to the Food and Drug Administration's regulations. Generally, FDA issues a NIDPOE letter when it believes it has evidence that the clinical investigator repeatedly or deliberately violated FDA's regulations governing the proper conduct of clinical studies involving investigational products or submitted false information to the sponsor. FDA Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. Accessed on 2009-06-29 at: http://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/CDER/ucm090279.htm

NOOH: The Notice of Opportunity for Hearing provides an individual with the opportunity for a hearing on a regulatory action, including a proposed action (such as disqualification), before a presiding officer designated by the Commissioner.
