# FDA Advisory Committee Meetings

> Search filters and result fields of fda_advisory_committees.

* **Dataset id:** `fda_advisory_committees`
* **Jurisdiction:** US · FDA
* **Date field:** `end_date`. The search's top-level `date_from` and `date_to` filter on it.
* **Access:** any API key.

## Filters

Send these under `filters.fda_advisory_committees` in a [search](/api-reference/v3/search) request. A filter not listed here, or a value of the wrong type, is a 400. The top-level `date_from` and `date_to` set `date_from` and `date_to` below, so give a date in one place only.

<ParamField body="title" type="string">
  Keyword match on meeting title (BM25 tokenized).
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="committee_name" type="string">
  Keyword match on the committee name as printed on the meeting page body (e.g. 'Oncologic Drugs', 'Vaccines and Related Biological Products'). BM25 tokenized.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="center" type="string">
  Keyword match on FDA center, BM25 tokenized. The column stores the full name (e.g. 'Center for Drug Evaluation and Research'); search by tokens that appear in the full name like 'Drug', 'Devices', 'Biologics', 'Tobacco', 'Veterinary', 'Toxicological'. Short abbreviations (CDER, CBER, CDRH) do NOT match the center field — pass those via `keywords` to search the body text instead.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="docket_number" type="string">
  Exact-match Federal Register docket number, e.g. 'FDA-2023-N-4807'. NULL for pre-FR-notice pages (no docket assigned yet).
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="meeting_status" type="string">
  Enumerable status — 'upcoming' if the meeting end\_date is in the future, else 'past'; re-derived on every refresh.

  Values: `upcoming`, `past`.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="material_type" type="string | string[]">
  Exact match on the kind of document; one value or a list. 'meeting\_page' is the announcement page itself; the rest are the files FDA posted for the meeting: 'briefing\_document', 'presentation', 'transcript', 'minutes' (incl. 24-hour summaries; where vote tallies are), 'questions', 'roster', 'agenda', 'conflict\_of\_interest', 'public\_comment', 'other' (also files whose title names no kind; search those with keywords).

  Values: `meeting_page`, `briefing_document`, `presentation`, `transcript`, `minutes`, `questions`, `roster`, `agenda`, `conflict_of_interest`, `public_comment`, `other`.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="material_title" type="string">

</ParamField>

<ParamField body="date_from" type="string (date)">
  Inclusive lower bound (YYYY-MM-DD) on the meeting's last day.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="date_to" type="string (date)">
