Don’t risk withdrawal of your ANDA by FDA!
An Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) is an application for US generic drug approval for an existing licensed medication or approved drug. According to Guidance for Industry – Changes to an Approved NDA or ANDA, any changes to an approved ANDA or New Drug Application (NDA) must be reported to the FDA.
- Major change: Prior Approval Supplement (PAS, approval required)
- Moderate change: Supplement – Changes Being Effected in 30 Days (CBE-30, “tell, wait & do”)
- (Moderate change: Supplement – Changes Being Effected (CBE-0, “tell & do & may cease”)
- Minor change: Annual Report (“do & tell”)
Code of Federal Regulations 21 CFR 314.81 requires an applicant to submit an annual report for every approved NDA and every ANDA. If not done: FDA may withdraw your NDA / ANDA
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced in early 2020 that it plans to withdraw the approval of 249 Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDAs) after their manufacturers repeatedly failed to submit annual reports for their generic drugs.
FDA Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR 314.81) requires that all ANDA / NDA-holders must submit an annual report for each approved marketing application – if this is not done the FDA may rescind your NDA / ANDA approval. Accordingly, the FDA maintains that manufacturers will have the opportunity to request a hearing to appeal the decision by filing a written request and providing the agency with a rationale for why the ANDA should not be withdrawn.
