That is not true. The FDA uses R internally, and there is no requirement that you must use any specific software tool. See https://www.r-project.org/doc/R-FDA.p

- dekhn 10y agoOK, so my employers were wrong! http://blog.revolutionanalytics.com/2012/06/fda-r-ok.html http://blog.revolutionanalytics.com/2012/06/fda-r-ok.html """Despite some mistaken conceptions in the pharmaceutical industry, SAS is not required to be used for clinical trials. This origin of this fallacy is probably related to the fact that data must be submitted in the XPT "transport format" (which was originally created by SAS). This data format is now an open standard: XPT files can be read into R with the standard read.xport function, and exported from R with the write.xport function in the SASxport package. (And if you have legacy data in other SAS formats, there's a handy SAS macro to export XPT files.)""" Thanks for clearning that up.
