Dear all, any (!) software used in regulated environments has to be validated. Regrettably is is a misconception by many working in the pharmaceutical industry that only studies evaluated by SAS are accepted by the FDA. See this one-pager https://www.fda.gov/media/109552/download and a

Just as a matter of curiosity, what are some of the programs that have already been vetted, what methods were used, and how long did the vetting take? As the R guidance points out, R was not designed for creating or updating medical records, so it should be treated the same way as say LibreOffice
