There are a variety of scenarios under which information that is not generated by an applicant could be useful to support a submission for drug approval under Section 505(b)(2) of the FDC Act. In developing a strategy, one must consider the quickest route to approval, the best labeling and the broadest use supported by the data. Depending on the products to be submitted for approval (changes to an approved drug, a marketed unapproved drug, or a new chemical entity with previously published information), the scope and the extent of the available information will have an impact on the bridging (nonclinical, clinical) studies to be performed and submitted.
In this conference, the speaker describes the drugs that can and cannot be submitted under Section 505(b)(2), strategies for different products, the role of patents and marketing exclusivity, and types of bridging studies. He also shares insights into search strategies to obtain and select appropriate published literature references, preparation of summaries, use of previous agency findings of safety and effectiveness, and the potential pitfalls in using published literature findings and agency findings.
