[Docket No. FDA–2007–N–0377] (formerly
Docket No. 2007N–0299)
Allyn M. Norman; Debarment Order
AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is issuing an
order under the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (the act) debarring Dr.
Allyn M. Norman for 5 years from
providing services in any capacity to a
person that has an approved or pending
drug product application. FDA bases
this order on a finding that Dr. Norman
was convicted of a misdemeanor under
Federal law for conduct relating to the
development or approval, including the
process for development or approval, of
a drug product or otherwise relating to
the regulation of drug products under
the act, and that the type of conduct that
served as the basis for the conviction
undermines the process for the
regulation of drugs. Dr. Norman failed to
request a hearing and, therefore, has
waived his opportunity for a hearing
concerning this action.
DATES: This order is effective June 12,
2009.
Submit applications for
termination of debarment to the
Division of Dockets Management (HFA–
305), Food and Drug Administration,
5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville,
MD 20852.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Robert L. Hummel, Sr., Division of
Compliance Policy (HFC–230), Office of
Enforcement, Office of Regulatory
Affairs, Food and Drug Administration,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
I. Background
On October 28, 2002, the U.S. District
Court for the Western District of New
York accepted Dr. Norman’s plea of
guilty to one count of failure to maintain
adequate and accurate records relating
to the use of investigational new drugs,
a Federal misdemeanor offense under 21
U.S.C. 331(e) and 333(a)(1). On February
5, 2003, the U.S. District Court for the
Western District of New York entered a
judgment of conviction against Dr.
Norman for this offense.
The basis of this conviction was Dr.
Norman’s creation and submission of
falsified study data in required reports
VerDate Nov<24>2008
17:53 Jun 11, 2009
Jkt 217001
to the sponsor of an investigational new
drug application (IND) study, in
violation of section 505(i) of the act (21
U.S.C. 355(i)) and 21 CFR 312.62(a) and
(b). Dr. Norman failed to conduct the
study according to the approved
protocol, reported the enrollment of
nonexistent subjects in the study, and
fabricated all of the pertinent study
records associated with these subjects.
Dr. Norman’s failure to comply with the
requirements of the act and FDA
regulations concerning the conduct of
an IND study is the type of conduct that
undermines confidence in the results of
clinical studies that are relied on in the
approval process for drug products.
As a result of Dr. Norman’s
conviction, FDA sent to Dr. Norman, by
certified letter on October 10, 2007, a
proposal to debar Dr. Norman for 5
years from providing services in any
capacity to a person that has an
approved or pending drug product
application. The letter also offered Dr.
Norman notice of an opportunity for a
hearing on the proposal in accordance
with section 306 of the act (21 U.S.C.
335a) and 21 CFR part 12. FDA based
the debarment proposal on the findings,
under section 306(b)(2)(B)(i)(I) of the
act, that Dr. Norman was convicted of a
misdemeanor under Federal law for
conduct relating to the development or
approval, including the process for
development or approval, of a drug
product or otherwise relating to the
regulation of drug products under the
act, and that the type of conduct which
served as the basis for the conviction
undermines the process for the
regulation of drugs. The letter notified
Dr. Norman that he had 30 days from
the date of receipt of the letter to request
a hearing. Dr. Norman did not request
a hearing. His failure to request a
hearing constitutes a waiver of his
opportunity for a hearing and a waiver
of any contentions concerning his
debarment.
II. Findings and Order
Therefore, the Acting Director, Office
of Enforcement, Office of Regulatory
Affairs, under section 306(b)(2)(B)(i)(I)
of the act and under authority delegated
to the Acting Director (Staff Manual
Guide 1410.35), finds that Dr. Allyn M.
Norman has been convicted of a
misdemeanor under Federal law for
failure to maintain adequate and
accurate records relating to the use of
investigational new drugs, that Dr.
Norman’s conduct relates to the
development or approval, including the
process for development or approval, of
a drug product or otherwise relates to
the regulation of drug products under
the act, and that Dr. Norman’s conduct,
PO 00000
Frm 00056
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
which served as the basis for his
conviction, is the type of conduct that
undermines the process for the
regulation of drugs.
As a result of the foregoing findings,
Dr. Norman is debarred for 5 years from
providing services in any capacity to a
person with an approved or pending
drug product application under sections
505, 512, or 802 of the act (21 U.S.C.
355, 360b, or 382), or under section 351
of the Public Health Service Act (42
U.S.C. 262), effective (see DATES) (see
sections 306(c)(1)(B) and (c)(2)(A)(iii)
and 201(dd) of the act (21 U.S.C.
321(dd)). Any person with an approved
or pending drug product application
who knowingly uses the services of Dr.
Norman, in any capacity, during his
period of debarment, will be subject to
civil money penalties (section 307(a)(6)
of the act (21 U.S.C. 355b(a)(6))). If Dr.
Norman, during his period of
debarment, provides services in any
capacity to a person with an approved
or pending drug product application, he
will be subject to civil money penalties
(section 307(a)(7) of the act). In
addition, FDA will not accept or review
any abbreviated new drug applications
submitted by or with the assistance of
Dr. Norman during his period of
debarment.
Any application by Dr. Norman for
termination of debarment under section
306(d)(4) of the act should be identified
with Docket No. FDA–2007–N–0377
(formerly Docket No. 2007N–0299) and
sent to the Division of Dockets
Management (see ADDRESSES). All such
submissions are to be filed in four
copies. The public availability of
information in these submissions is
governed by 21 CFR 10.20(j). Publicly
available submissions may be seen in
the Division of Dockets Management
between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday
through Friday.
Dated: June 4, 2009.
