Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that
the Office of Research Integrity (ORI)
and the Assistant Secretary for Health
have taken final action in the following
case:
Gerardo L. Paez, PhD, University of
Pennsylvania: Based on the reports of an
inquiry and an investigation conducted
by the University of Pennsylvania (UP)
and analysis conducted by the ORI
Division of Investigative Oversight
(DIO), ORI found that Gerardo L. Paez,
PhD, former postdoctoral fellow,
Section of Medical Genetics, UP School
of Veterinary Medicine, engaged in
research misconduct in research
supported by National Eye Institute
(NEI), National Institutes of Health
(NIH), awards R01 EY06855 and R01
EY13132.
ORI found that the Respondent
engaged in research misconduct by
falsifying and fabricating retinal gene
profile data that he purportedly
obtained from three-week old normal
dogs and dogs with X-linked progressive
retinal atrophy.
Specifically, ORI found that:
1. Respondent committed research
misconduct by falsifying/fabricating
data for gene expression profiles in
retinal tissue from three-week old
normal dogs and dogs with X-linked
progressive retinal atrophy in abstracts
and poster presentations for the 2006 1
and 2007 2 Association for Research in
Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO)
meetings and in an unsubmitted
manuscript draft.3
2. Respondent falsely labeled data
files in the UP bioinformatics core
computer and submitted falsely
identified files to his research mentors.
Dr. Paez has entered into a Voluntary
Settlement Agreement in which he has
voluntarily agreed, for a period of three
(3) years, beginning on June 9, 2010:
(1) To exclude himself from serving in
any advisory capacity to PHS, including
1 Paez, G.L., Zangerl, B., Acland, G.M., & Aguirre,
G.D. ‘‘Abnormal gene expression profile in retinas
with RPGR frameshift mutation.’’
2 Paez, G.L., Zangerl, B., Acland, G.M., & Aguirre,
G.D. ‘‘Photoreceptor degeneration and tumor
suppressor gene expression in canine retinas with
RGR frameshift mutation.’’
3 Paez, G.L., Zangerl, B., Acland, G.M., & Aguirre,
G.D. ‘‘Age-related changes in the transcriptional
profile of normal and XLPRAII retinas using a
custom cDNA microarray.’’

but not limited to service on any PHS
advisory committee, board, and/or peer
review committee, or as a consultant;
(2) that any institution that submits an
application for PHS support for a
research project on which the
Respondent’s participation is proposed
or that uses him in any capacity on
PHS-supported research, or that submits
a report of PHS-funded research in
which he is involved, must concurrently
submit a plan for supervision of his
duties to the funding agency for
approval; the supervisory plan must be
designed to ensure the scientific
integrity of his research contribution. A
copy of the supervisory plan also must
be submitted to ORI by the institution.
Respondent agreed that he will not
participate in any PHS-supported
research until such a supervisory plan is
submitted to ORI.

Section 505(b)(1) of the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) (21
U.S.C. 355(b)(1)) requires all new drug
application (NDA) applicants to file, as
part of the NDA, ‘‘the patent number and
the expiration date of any patent which
claims the drug for which the applicant
submitted the application or which
claims a method of using such drug and
with respect to which a claim of patent
infringement could reasonably be
asserted if a person not licensed by the
owner engaged in the manufacture[,]
use, or sale of the drug.’’ Section
505(c)(2) of the act imposes a similar
patent submission obligation on holders
of approved NDAs when the NDA
holder could not have submitted the
patent information with its application.
Under section 505(b)(1) of the act, we
publish patent information after
approval of an NDA in the list entitled
‘‘Approved Drug Products With
Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations’’
