3. Introduction:-
An Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) is an application to U.S.
generic drug approval for existing licensed medication or approved drug.
The ANDA contains data which submitted to FDA’s Center For Drug Evaluation
and Research (CDER), Office of Generic Drugs, provides for the review and
ultimate approval of a generic drug product .
Once approved, an applicant may manufacture and market the generic drug
product to provide a safe, effective, low-cost alternative to the public.
All approved products, both innovator and generic, are listed in FDA’s
Approved Drug Product with therapeutic equivalence evaluation (Orange book).

Generic drug is defined as a drug product that is comparable to a brand/reference
listed drug product in dosage form, strength, route of administration quality and
performance characteristics and intended use .
Generic drug is a drug which is produced and distributed without patent protection
.the generic drug may have patent on the formulation but not on the active
ingredient .

8. Hatch-Waxman Act:-
The Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act 1984, also known
as the Hatch-Waxman Act , established bioequivalence as the basis for
approving generic copies of drug products.

version of brand-name dug without repeating costly and duplicative clinical
trials to establish safety and efficacy.
The Hatch-Waxman Act added two provision to Federal Food, Drug and
Cosmetic Act :
a) Section 505(b)(2) – It was added with respect to Hybrid New Drug Application
b) Section 505(J) –It was added with respect to ANDA.
