Item 8.01 | Other Events |
On July 18, 2007, DOR BioPharma, Inc. (the “Company”) received notification from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that the action date for the FDA's review of the New Drug Application (NDA) for orBec® (oral beclomethasone dipropionate) for the treatment of gastrointestinal graft-versus-host disease (GI GVHD) has been extended to October 21, 2007. The original action date under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) for the orBec® NDA was July 21, 2007.
The extension is the result of DOR's July 13, 2007 provision of supplemental information to the orBec® NDA. This information was requested by the FDA at a June 13, 2007 NDA review meeting. According to FDA policy, the submission of this supplemental information was classified as a major amendment, putting the new action date for the orBec® NDA at October 21, 2007.
On July 19, 2007 the Company issued a press release discussing this event.
