Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 127 / Monday, July 2, 2012 / Notices
warning letter additionally noted that
none of the products described had an
approved application and that their
introduction or delivery for introduction
into interstate commerce violated
section 301(d) of the FD&C Act. Mr.
Yanikian was advised to immediately
correct the violations.
In response, on April 11, 2005, Mr.
Yanikian wrote a reply letter to FDA in
which he stated that the products were
mailed for sale outside the United States
to hospitals that deal with natural
health products. He further noted that
his products were not intended for sale
as over-the-counter or for single
individuals in the United States until
they were approved by FDA.
Despite knowing that he was not
allowed to sell these unapproved new
drugs in the United States without FDA
approval, and despite his repeated
representations to FDA that he was not
selling his products to customers in the
United States, Mr. Yanikian
subsequently sold his unapproved new
drug products to an undercover agent in
November 2005, and again in November
2006, in violation of sections 301(d),
505(a), and 303(a)(1) of the FD&C Act
and 18 U.S.C. 2(b).
As a result of his conviction, on April
3, 2012, FDA sent Mr. Yanikian a notice
by certified mail proposing to debar him
for 10 years from providing services in
any capacity to a person that has an
approved or pending drug product
application. FDA subsequently
confirmed that Mr. Yanikian personally
received the notice on April 11, 2012.
The proposal was based on a finding,
under section 306(b)(2)(B)(i)(I) of the
FD&C Act that Mr. Yanikian was
convicted of two counts of a
misdemeanor under Federal law. In the
notice, FDA found that the conduct
underlying these Federal misdemeanor
convictions relates to the development
or approval, including the process for
development or approval, of drug
products and relates to the regulation of
drug products under the FD&C Act and
undermines the process for the
regulation of drugs because the
introduction and causing the
introduction of unapproved new drugs
into interstate commerce are prohibited
by the FD&C Act. The proposal also
offered Mr. Yanikian an opportunity to
request a hearing, providing him 30
days from the date of receipt of the letter
in which to file the request, and advised
him that failure to request a hearing
constituted a waiver of the opportunity
for a hearing and of any contentions
concerning this action. Mr. Yanikian
failed to respond within the timeframe
prescribed by regulation, and has
therefore waived his opportunity for a

Jkt 226001
hearing and waived any contentions
concerning his debarment (21 CFR part
12).
II. Findings and Order
Therefore, the Director, Office of
Enforcement, Office of Regulatory
Affairs, under section 306(b)(2)(B)(i)(I)
of the FD&C Act under authority
delegated to him (Staff Manual Guide
1410.35), finds that Sami Arshak
Yanikian has been convicted of two
counts of a misdemeanor under Federal
law for conduct relating to the
development or approval, including the
process for development or approval, of
drug products and relating to the
regulation of drug products under the
FD&C Act, and that the type of conduct
that served as a basis for the conviction
undermines the process for the
regulation of drugs.
As a result of the foregoing finding,
Mr. Yanikian is debarred for 10 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 FD&C
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),
(c)(2)(A)(iii), and 201(dd) of the FD&C
Act (21 U.S.C. 335a(c)(1)(B),
(c)(2)(A)(iii), and 321(dd))). Any person
with an approved or pending drug
product application who knowingly
employs or retains as a consultant or
contractor, or otherwise uses the
services of Mr. Yanikian, in any
capacity during Mr. Yanikian’s
debarment, will be subject to civil
money penalties (section 307(a)(6) of the
FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 335b(a)(6))). If Mr.
Yanikian provides services in any
capacity to a person with an approved
or pending drug product application
during his period of debarment he will
be subject to civil money penalties
(section 307(a)(7) of the FD&C Act). In
addition, FDA will not accept or review
any abbreviated new drug applications
submitted by or with the assistance of
Mr. Yanikian during his period of
debarment (section 306(c)(1)(B) of the
FD&C Act).
Any application by Mr. Yanikian for
termination of debarment under section
306(d)(1) of the FD&C Act should be
identified with Docket No. FDA–2012–
N–0063 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

Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration, HHS.
ACTION: Notice of intent to award a
Single Source Grant to the current
grantee of the Suicide Prevention
Resource Center (SPRC) program.
AGENCY:
This notice is to inform the
public that the Substance Abuse and
Mental Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) intends to award a
programmatic supplement of
approximately $800,000 (total costs) for
up to one year to the current grantee of
the Suicide Prevention Resource Center
program. The current grantee is the
Education Development Center, Inc. in
Newton, Massachusetts. This is not a
formal request for applications.
Assistance will be provided only to the
Education Development Center, Inc.
based on receipt of a satisfactory
application that is approved by an
independent review group.
Funding Opportunity Title: SM–12–

are most likely to be sustained in States,
Tribes, and colleges; and
• Developing a plan to improve
inclusion of youth substance abuse
treatment and prevention programming
in GLS grant activities.
This cooperative agreement is financed
in part with FY 2012 Prevention and
Public Health Funds (PPHF–2012).
SAMHSA funds only one Suicide
Prevention Resource Center, SAMHSA’s
primary vehicle for providing technical
assistance to GLS Suicide Prevention
grantees and to the field. Therefore, this
program supplement will be awarded to
the grantee that manages the SPRC,
specifically to the Education
Development Center, Inc. in Newton,
Massachusetts. There are no other
sources with the available resources and
expertise to successfully complete the
tasks of this proposal. Further, it would
be both inefficient and wasteful to fund
a second technical assistance provider
for the same group of grantees.

Authority: Section 520C and 520A of the
Public Health Service Act, as amended.
BILLING CODE 4162–20–P
Justification: The purpose of this oneyear supplement to the SPRC is twofold.
The first goal is to expand and enhance
the level of support provided to the
National Action Alliance for Suicide
Prevention. This supplement will
expand future organizational
development, partnerships, and
collaborations to support the
implementation of the National Strategy
for Suicide Prevention (NSSP).
A second goal is to build on existing
SPRC activities to support the Garrett
Lee Smith (GLS) Suicide Prevention
grantees in youth suicide prevention on
campuses and in States and Tribes, to
include:
• Providing technical assistance in
youth suicide prevention to a new
cohort of GLS Suicide Prevention State,
Tribal, and Campus grantees;
• Developing and implementing a
strategic framework to embed
sustainable and coordinated,
comprehensive youth suicide
prevention activities in States, Tribes
and colleges across the country. This
should include a review of effective
suicide prevention practices and
programs utilized by GLS grantees that
