June looks fairly strong but likely not as strong as May’s projected unofficial total (ninety‑three full and tentative actions). With postings through June 14th on the FDA’s Daily and All Approval lists (here and here), as of 10:30 a.m. on June 16, 2022, there were twenty‑three full‑approval actions and nine tentative‑approval actions. This total of […]
The “rain” of approval actions in April led to an unofficial “sprouting” of 83 full approvals in May, which was the largest number of full approvals seen in quite some time; specifically, since May 2019 when there were also 83 full approvals. While not an all-time high for a single month, it is a welcome […]
Surprise, surprise! Just yesterday, we reported an anemic number of approvals through May 16th and today we were surprised to see (perhaps due to a fix to the FDA’s posting problem!) the new and now revised total through May 17th is thirty‑seven full‑approval actions (only one of which was approved on the 17th) and still one tentative […]
According to the reporting on the FDA’s Daily Approvals page and confirmed by the FDA’s All Approvals list at 9:45 AM, EST 5/18/22, there were a total of 15 full approval actions and one (1) tentative approval action so far in May. Could the glitch previously reported here still be a problem? We all hope […]
We can all sleep at night now, as OGD presented the official approval action numbers today (here) and the computer glitch that was reported earlier is in the rearview mirror (for now at least). The good news is that OGD reported a total of 62 approval actions (20 more than appear on the FDA’s All […]
April showers bring May flowers, as the saying goes. Well, April thus far has not showered down approvals as, halfway through the month, the OGD stands at twenty‑one full‑approval actions and three tentative‑approval actions. If the trend continues through the end of the month, we could be heading for a month with less than fifty […]
March ANDA full‑approval actions (reported thus far) sit at sixty‑three, the second highest total this fiscal year (FY), eclipsed only by the sixty‑seven full‑approval actions in November. That’s the good news! The OGD only issued four tentative‑approval (TA) actions in March, the lowest number this FY (the previous range was eight in November to twenty‑two […]
I believe everyone likes seeing the progress of ANDA approval actions, and hold that as the primary measure of success of OGD. I know that has been the case ever since Hatch-Waxman was implemented in November of 1984. So I continue to track this metric very closely and at least through the morning of March […]
With ANDA reporting through January 21, 2022, the OGD has issued thirty full‑approval actions and eight tentative‑approval actions for a total of thirty‑eight approval actions issued so far this month. With only six more reporting days remaining, these unofficial numbers, gathered from the FDA All Approvals list here, it looks like the total approval actions […]
Well, OGD is back over the 70 mark for total number of approval actions in a single month, with what appear to be at least 72-66 full approval actions and six (6) tentative approval actions reported, going by the numbers posted at 11 AM EST December 3 on FDA’s website. The last time OGD had […]
