Delcor Asset Corp. et al.; Withdrawal of Approval of 22 Abbreviated New Drug Applications, 2455-2456 [2018-00695]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 11 / Wednesday, January 17, 2018 / Notices actual amount of extension that the Director of USPTO may award (for example, half the testing phase must be subtracted as well as any time that may have occurred before the patent was issued), FDA’s determination of the length of a regulatory review period for a human drug product will include all of the testing phase and approval phase as specified in 35 U.S.C. 156(g)(1)(B). FDA has approved for marketing the human drug product DAKLINZA (daclatasvir dihydrochloride). DAKLINZA is indicated for use with sofosbuvir for the treatment of chronic HCV genotype 3 infection. Subsequent to this approval, the USPTO received a patent term restoration application for DAKLINZA (U.S. Patent No. 8,329,159) from Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, and the USPTO requested FDA’s assistance in determining this patent’s eligibility for patent term restoration. In a letter dated July 12, 2016, FDA advised the USPTO that this human drug product had undergone a regulatory review period and that the approval of DAKLINZA represented the first permitted commercial marketing or use of the product. Thereafter, the USPTO requested that FDA determine the product’s regulatory review period. II. Determination of Regulatory Review Period FDA has determined that the applicable regulatory review period for DAKLINZA is 2,808 days. Of this time, 2,327 days occurred during the testing phase of the regulatory review period, while 481 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 FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 355(i)) became effective: November 17, 2007. The applicant claims November 16, 2007, as the date the investigational new drug application (IND) became effective. However, FDA records indicate that the IND effective date was November 17, 2007, which was 30 days after FDA receipt of the IND. 2. The date the application was initially submitted with respect to the human drug product under section 505(b) of the FD&C Act: March 31, 2014. FDA has verified the applicant’s claim that the new drug application (NDA) for DAKLINZA (NDA 206843) was initially submitted on March 31, 2014. 3. The date the application was approved: July 24, 2015. FDA has verified the applicant’s claim that NDA 206843 was approved on July 24, 2015. 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 application for patent extension, this applicant seeks 467 days of patent term extension. 2455 Dated: January 11, 2018. Leslie Kux, Associate Commissioner for Policy.
