This document provides an overview of Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDAs) in 3 sentences or less: The document introduces ANDAs as applications submitted to FDA to review and approve generic drug products once approved, allowing manufacturers to market safe and effective low-cost alternatives, and discusses various topics related to ANDA guidelines, requirements, review process, and regulations. It is dedicated to the author's son and aims to provide information to both academia and industry through free websites and articles to support millions of readers.

ANDA contains data submitted to FDA's Center for Drug evaluation and
Research, Office of Generic Drugs, for review and ultimate approval of a
generic drug product.
Once ANDA is approved, an applicant may manufacture and market the
generic drug product to provide a safe, effective, low cost alternative to the
American public.
A generic drug product is the one that is comparable to an innovator drug
product in dosage form, strength, route of administration, quality,
performance characteristics and intended use.

7. All approved products, both innovator and generic, are
listed in FDA's Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic
Equivalence Evaluations (Orange Book).
Generic drug applications are termed "abbreviated"
Use of bioequivalence as the base for approving generic
drug products was established by the "Drug Price
Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984,"
also known as the WAXMAN-HATCH ACT.

“THE KEFAUVER HARIS AMENDMENTS” led to “DRUG
EFFICACY STUDY IMPLEMENTATION (DESI)”.
FDA’s realization
Mid 1966 notice in federal Register
DESI review ultimately led to evolution of ANDA concept.

9. On April 24th 1970, the ANDA policy was published with
exception of DESI pending list drugs and exempt as per
court order
In November 1984, The Drug Price Competition and
Patent Term Restoration Act.
Title 1: ANDA regardless of time before or after 1962
Title 2: Patent extension for life lost
Title 3: Textile and wood products
In April, 1992 FDA finalized the regulations outlining the
requirements for ANDAs.

10. On November 21, 1997 Modernization Act was
signed.

41. 7. Concept ooff ppaarraaggrraapphh II ttoo IIVV::
For filing ANDA, generic company must include a
patent certification as per section 505(j) (2) (A) (vii) of
the Hatch Waxman Act.
The certificate has to make one of the following
statements:
I. No patent information on the drug product that is the subject
of the ANDA has been submitted to FDA
II. That such patent has expired
III. The date on which such patent expires
IV. That such patent is invalid or will not be infringed by the
manufacture, use, or sale of the drug product which the
ANDA is submitted.

42. The first three paragraphs (I, II, III) results in no generic drug
being sold during the term of the innovator’s patent
protection.
In case paragraph IV certification generic drugs can be sold
during the term of the innovator’s patent protection. with rule
of 45days suit and 30 months ban.
Bann approved unless:
The court decides that such patent is invalid or not infringed. In this case ANDA
approval is made effective on the date of the court decision
The court decides that such patent has been infringed and sets a date for approval of
the ANDA as provided.
The court grants a preliminary injuction prohibiting the ANDA applicant from
engaging in the commercial manufacture or sale of the drug until the court decides
the issues of patent validity and infringement.

43. 88.. SSUUBBSSTTAANNTTIIAALLLLYY CCOOMMPPLLEETTEE AANNDDAA::
“Substantially complete” means application with all required
information like bioequivalence, etc.
If a new bioequivalence study required for ANDA approval- not
substantially complete and the applicant would not be eligible for
exclusivity.
Withdrawal of paragraph IV certification – voluntarily/ settlement/
defeat in patent litigation by first applicant-looses exclusitivity.
Again first applicant submit paragraph IV certificate for 180 days
exclusivity and there are no subsequent applicants then first applicant
would be eligible for exclusivity.

that day or generic wants to challenge innovator’s ANDA for
5(1/2) years exclusivity and submits at end of 4(1/2) year

Subsequent generics gets

46. 1111.. TTRRIIGGGGEERR PPEERRIIOODD
Unnecessary delay or settlement Trigger period concept
Commencement of the 180-day exclusivity period for the first applicant is
either the first commercial marketing of the first applicant’s product, or a
decision of a court holding the patent invalid, not infringed, or unenforceable,
whichever is earlier.
For exercising exclusitivity 180-day ‘triggering period’
court decision regarding the patent favorable to the first applicant or the first
applicant must begin commercial marketing of its product
if not first generic would lose its eligibility for exclusivity and subsequent
generic filers for ANDA would be eligible for immediate approval.

47. There is new ‘triggering period’ which is separate
and distinct from the 180-day ‘exclusivity period.’
The triggering period would begin upon the :
Tentative approval of a subsequent ANDA with a paragraph iv
certification for the same drug product
Expiration of a 30 month stay of ANDA approval due to patent
litigation
Expiration of a preliminary injunction prohibiting marketing of an
ANDA product
Expiration of the statutorily described exclusivity periods for the listed
drug

48. Delay of ANDA into market
Mean while subsequent generics gets tentative approval
FDA proposes 60 days trigger period for first generic to launch
product into the market else lose exclusitivity

49. First generic sued Para IV certification and is facing
patent litigation by innovator
Triggering period would not begin at least until the 30 month
period has lapsed
At the end of the 30 month period, the triggering period
would begin on the date a subsequent applicant receives
tentative approval, or if a subsequent applicant had
previously received tentative approval then on the date the
30 month period expired.
