Amylin awaits FDA approval

WEST CHESTER TWP. — While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration reported several issues with Amylin Pharmaceuticals Inc.’s West Chester Twp. plant, the company said the FDA has not requested further information.

In a report released by the FDA last week, the agency indicated it found several issues with Amylin’s local plant during a December inspection, including improper procedures to prevent microbiological contamination of products.

The local plant would produce the company’s new formulation of exenatide — proposed to be branded Bydureon — pending regulatory approval. The twice-daily formulation would be used in the treatment of Type II diabetes.

In a letter sent to the company Friday, March 12, the FDA did not request any new clinical trials on the drug or make any further requests regarding the plant issues, Amylin said in a news release.

The FDA did request Amylin and its partner, Eli Lilly & Co. and Alkermes Inc., finalize the product label and clarify some of its manufacturing processes in the letter.
