from whole animal tissue, or produced
in vitro, synthetically or through
recombinant expression, and often serve
as signaling molecules for many
physiologic functions that are regulated
by endogenous proteins. 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2 There is an FDA draft guidance entitled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;

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

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.

Restoration Act of 1984 (Pub. 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

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.

FDA intends to make background material available to the public no
later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post
the background material on its website prior to the meeting, the
background material will be made publicly available on FDA's website at
the time of the advisory committee meeting. Background material and the
link to the online teleconference meeting room will be available at
https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm. Scroll
down to the appropriate advisory committee meeting link. The meeting
will include slide presentations with audio components to allow the
presentation of materials in a manner that most closely resembles an
in-person advisory committee meeting.
Procedure: Interested persons may present data, information, or
views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee.
All electronic and written submissions submitted to the Docket (see
ADDRESSES) on or before June 10, 2021, will be provided to the
committee. Oral presentations from the public will be scheduled between
approximately 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. Eastern Time. Those individuals
interested in making formal oral presentations should notify the
contact person and submit a brief statement of the general nature of
the evidence or arguments they wish to present, the names and addresses
of proposed participants, and an indication of the approximate time
requested to make their presentation on or before June 2, 2021. Time
allotted for each presentation may be limited. If the number of
registrants requesting to speak is greater than can be reasonably
accommodated during the scheduled open public hearing session, FDA may
conduct a lottery to determine the speakers for the scheduled open
public hearing session. The contact person will notify interested
persons regarding their request to speak by June 3, 2021.
