Otic suspension-packaging change from Glass to plastic

    Dear all,

    RLD Otic suspension product (nonsterile) having benzyl alcohol currently in Glass bottle, screw cap and with dropper. With ANDA application change to PLASTIC HDPE/LDPE Dropper bottle - what data package is required for US.
     
    Top of my head thoughts;
    • Sterilisation cycle optimization & validation - no phase separation
    • Leachables/extractables
    • Drug product stability - minimum 6 months long term/accelerated, assuming highly stable, would enable maintaining current shelf-life of 24 months at a push with extra data provision during review.

    Do we need to present in the pre-ANDA meeting?

    Regards,
