Subsequent to this approval, the Patent and Trademark Office received a patent term restoration application for SOMATULINE DEPOT (U.S. Patent No. 5,595,760) from Society De Conseils De Recherches Et D’Applications Scientifiques, and the Patent and Trademark Office requested FDA’s assistance in determining this patent’s eligibility for patent term restoration. In a letter dated April 22, 2008, FDA advised the Patent and Trademark Office that this human drug product had undergone a regulatory review period and that the approval of SOMATULINE DEPOT represented the first permitted commercial marketing or use of the product. Shortly thereafter, the Patent and Trademark Office requested that FDA determine the product’s regulatory review period. FDA has determined that the applicable regulatory review period for SOMATULINE DEPOT is 3,629 days. Of this time, 3,324 days occurred during the testing phase of the regulatory review period, while 305 days occurred during the approval phase. These periods of time were derived from the following dates: 1. The date an exemption under section 505(i) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C. 355) became effective: September 24, 1997. FDA has verified the applicant’s claim that the date the investigational new drug application became effective was on September 24, 1997. 2. The date the application was initially submitted with respect to the human drug product under section 505(b) of the act: October 30, 2006. FDA has verified the applicant’s claim that the new drug application (NDA) for SOMATULINE DEPOT (NDA 22–074) was initially submitted on October 30, 2006. 3. The date the application was approved: August 30, 2007. FDA has verified the applicant’s claim that NDA 22–074 was approved on August 30, 2007. This determination of the regulatory review period establishes the maximum potential length of a patent extension. However, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office applies several statutory limitations in its calculations of the actual period for patent extension. In its application for patent extension, this applicant seeks 5 years of patent term extension. Anyone with knowledge that any of the dates as published are incorrect may submit to the Division of Dockets Management (see ADDRESSES) written or electronic comments and ask for a VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:18 Nov 14, 2008 Jkt 217001 67875 redetermination by January 16, 2009. Furthermore, any interested person may petition FDA for a determination regarding whether the applicant for extension acted with due diligence during the regulatory review period by May 18, 2009. To meet its burden, the petition must contain sufficient facts to merit an FDA investigation. (See H. Rept. 857, part 1, 98th Cong., 2d sess., pp. 41–42, 1984.) Petitions should be in the format specified in 21 CFR 10.30. Comments and petitions should be submitted to the Division of Dockets Management. Three copies of any mailed information are to be submitted, except that individuals may submit one copy. Comments are to be identified with the docket number found in brackets in the heading of this document.
