Peptides can exhibit distinct combinations of characteristics regarding their chemistry, pharmacology, sites of action, pharmacokinetic disposition, and pharmacodynamics. Although FDA has been regulating peptides for decades, there is a growing appreciation for specific considerations for the design and conduct of clinical pharmacology studies to assess peptides, such as those designed to evaluate the effects of organ impairment or drug interactions. Currently, there are no FDA-published guidance documents on clinical pharmacology assessments that contain specific recommendations for peptides.2 II. Request for Information and Comments Interested persons are invited to provide detailed information and comments on certain aspects of evaluating the clinical pharmacology of peptides. For all questions, organize any discussion by the type of peptide (e.g., isolated from animal source, or produced in vitro, synthetically or through recombinant expression) and route of administration. Please provide the rationale for your suggestions and include supporting data if available. FDA is particularly interested in responses to the following overarching questions: (1) Under what circumstances should the following assessments be warranted or not warranted for peptides? (a) Evaluating pharmacokinetics-based drug-drug interactions (DDIs) (b) Evaluating the pharmacokinetics in hepatic impairment (c) Evaluating immunogenicity and its impact on pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy (d) Evaluating QT prolongation (2) In circumstances where the assessments above are warranted, what types of assessments are suitable and why? What are the study design considerations (e.g., in vitro test systems, population, analytes, immunogenicity risk assessment, immunogenicity assay development and validation) for the types of assessments discussed in the following items? Please 2 There is an FDA draft guidance entitled ‘‘ANDAs for Certain Highly Purified Synthetic Peptide Drug Products That Refer to Listed Drugs of rDNA Origin’’ (October 2017) that is specific for ANDA applications for chemically synthetized peptides that refers to listed drugs of rDNA origin; available at https://www.fda.gov/media/107622/ download. VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:58 May 13, 2021 Jkt 253001 describe the rationale for any design considerations proposed. (a) For evaluating pharmacokineticsbased DDIs (e.g., in vitro studies, dedicated clinical studies, including cocktail studies, population pharmacokinetic analyses), please discuss the advantages, challenges, and limitations for these assessments. (b) For evaluating pharmacokinetics in hepatic impairment (e.g., dedicated clinical studies, population pharmacokinetic analyses), please discuss the advantages, challenges, and limitations for these assessments. (c) For evaluating immunogenicity and its impact on pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy (e.g., antibodies against the active ingredient peptide, peptide-related impurities, or endogenous counterpart, if present, neutralizing activity and antibody titers, cytokine measurements), please discuss the advantages, challenges, and limitations for these assessments. (d) For evaluating cardiac electrophysiology (e.g., hERG inhibition assay, thorough QT assessment) in nonclinical or clinical studies, please discuss the advantages, challenges, and limitations for these assessments. (3) Are there other clinical pharmacology considerations for peptides not covered in the questions above, such as use of pharmacodynamic biomarkers and/or pharmacokinetic assessments for dose selection? If yes, provide a description and rationale for any proposed considerations, as well as approaches, advantages, challenges, and limitations for the assessment. The public comments collected will help FDA develop recommendations for the design and conduct of clinical pharmacology studies important to the understanding of the safe and effective use of peptides and facilitate the regulatory assessment of such studies.

ACTION: Notice. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) has determined that OVIDE (malathion) lotion, 0.5%, was not withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination means that FDA will not begin procedures to withdraw approval of abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) that refer to this drug product, and it will allow FDA to continue to approve ANDAs that refer to the product as long as they meet relevant legal and regulatory requirements.

L. 98–417) (the 1984 amendments), which authorized the approval of duplicate versions of drug products under an ANDA procedure. ANDA applicants must, with certain exceptions, show that the drug for which they are seeking approval contains the same active ingredient in the same strength and dosage form as the ‘‘listed drug,’’ which is a version of the drug that was previously approved. ANDA applicants do not have to repeat the extensive clinical testing otherwise necessary to gain approval of a new drug application (NDA). The 1984 amendments include what is now section 505(j)(7) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 355(j)(7)), which requires FDA to publish a list of all approved drugs. FDA publishes this list as part of the ‘‘Approved Drug Products With Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations,’’ which is known generally as the ‘‘Orange Book.’’ Under FDA regulations, drugs are removed from the list if the Agency withdraws or suspends approval of the drug’s NDA or ANDA for reasons of safety or effectiveness or if FDA determines that the listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness (21 CFR 314.162). A person may petition the Agency to determine, or the Agency may determine on its own initiative, whether a listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination may be made at any time after the drug has been withdrawn from sale, but must be made prior to approving an ANDA that refers to the listed drug (§ 314.161 (21 CFR 314.161)). FDA may not approve an ANDA that does not refer to a listed drug. OVIDE (malathion) lotion, 0.5%, is the subject of NDA 018613, held by Taro Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd., and initially approved on August 2, 1982. OVIDE is indicated for patients infected with Pediculus humanus capitis (head lice and their ova) of the scalp hair. In a letter dated August 19, 2019, Taro Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. notified FDA that OVIDE (malathion) lotion, 0.5%, was being discontinued, and FDA moved the drug product to the ‘‘Discontinued Drug Product List’’ section of the Orange Book. Encube Ethicals Private Ltd. submitted a citizen petition dated March 19, 2021 (Docket No. FDA–2021– P–0306), under 21 CFR 10.30, requesting that the Agency determine whether OVIDE (malathion) lotion, 0.5%, was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. After considering the citizen petition and reviewing Agency records and PO 00000 Frm 00072 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 based on the information we have at this time, FDA has determined under § 314.161 that OVIDE (malathion) lotion, 0.5% was not withdrawn for reasons of safety or effectiveness. The petitioner has identified no data or other information suggesting that OVIDE (malathion) lotion, 0.5%, was withdrawn for reasons of safety or effectiveness. We have carefully reviewed our files for records concerning the withdrawal of OVIDE (malathion) lotion, 0.5%, from sale. We have also independently evaluated relevant literature and data for possible postmarketing adverse events. We have found no information that would indicate that this drug product was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. Accordingly, the Agency will continue to list OVIDE (malathion) lotion, 0.5%, in the ‘‘Discontinued Drug Product List’’ section of the Orange Book. The ‘‘Discontinued Drug Product List’’ delineates, among other items, drug products that have been discontinued from marketing for reasons other than safety or effectiveness. FDA will not begin procedures to withdraw approval of approved ANDAs that refer to this drug product. Additional ANDAs for this drug product may also be approved by the Agency as long as they meet all other legal and regulatory requirements for the approval of ANDAs. If FDA determines that labeling for this drug product should be revised to meet current standards, the Agency will advise ANDA applicants to submit such labeling. Dated: May 7, 2021. Lauren K.
