  • 1.  Hold time study for an approved ANDA

    Posted 13-Jul-2018 07:22
    Hello

    I am trying to look for guidance on what kind of submission we should do to extend the hold time for an approved ANDA nonsterile liquid product? Can it be a CBE30 with available stability data or it has to be a PAS?

    Thanka in advance!

    So, in classifying your proposed change, I would think an extension of hold time will be in the realm of a manufacturing change. ​If we go by the Guidance for Industry, Changes to an Approved NDA or ANDA, I don't see extension of hold time as being classified a major change. This seems to fit better as a moderate change so a CBE-30 should suffice with the appropriate data to scientifically justify the change and its impact (if any) on identity, strength, quality, purity, and potency. I hope this helps!
