Title: Supplements and Other Changes to an Approved Application | |
Abstract: Section 116 of the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act of 1997 (Pub. L. 105-115) added section 506A to the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 356a). Pursuant to section 116, the rulemaking will revise current procedures for approving manufacturing changes and generally classify such changes into four categories. Major manufacturing changes, which are of a type determined by the Secretary to have a substantial potential to adversely affect the identity, strength, quality, purity, and potency of the drug as they may relate to the safety and effectiveness of a drug, require prior approval of a supplemental application. A second category of changes may be made if FDA has not notified the company within 30 days after the submission of a supplement that prior approval is required. A third category of changes may be made upon submission of a supplement to the agency. The rule will also identify another category of changes that may be made without the submission of a supplement but which must be reported in an annual report. | |
