II. Determination of Regulatory Review
Period
FDA has determined that the
applicable regulatory review period for
GAZYVA is 1,698 days. Of this time,
1,504 days occurred during the testing
phase of the regulatory review period,
while 194 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 (21 U.S.C. 355(i))
became effective: March 11, 2009. FDA
has verified the applicant’s claim that
the date the investigational new drug
application became effective was on
March 11, 2009.
2. The date the application was
initially submitted with respect to the
human biological product under section
351 of the Public Health Service Act (42
U.S.C. 262): April 22, 2013. FDA has
verified the applicant’s claim that the
biologics license application (BLA) for
GAZYVA (BLA 125486) was initially
submitted on April 22, 2013.
3. The date the application was
approved: November 1, 2013. FDA has
verified the applicant’s claim that BLA
125486 was approved on November 1,
2013.
This determination of the regulatory
review period establishes the maximum
potential length of a patent extension.
However, the USPTO applies several
statutory limitations in its calculations
of the actual period for patent extension.
In its applications for patent extension,
this applicant seeks 929, 946, or 484
days, respectively, of patent term
extension.

sufficient facts to merit an FDA
investigation (See H. Rept. 857, part 1,

Petitions should be in the format
specified in 21 CFR 10.30.
