`Attention: Richard Almond

`
`
`Dear Mr. Almond:
`
`Please refer to your Supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) dated February 28, 2013,
`received March 1, 2013, submitted under section 505(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and
`Cosmetic Act (FDCA) for Oracea® (doxycycline) Capsules, 40 mg.
`
`We acknowledge receipt of your amendments dated April 24 and July 9, 2013.
`
`This “Prior Approval” supplemental new drug application provides for adding section 6.2 Post-
`
` marketing Experience to the labeling.
`
`We have completed our review of this supplemental application, as amended. It is approved,
`effective on the date of this letter, for use as recommended in the enclosed, agreed-upon labeling
`text.
`
`
`CONTENT OF LABELING
`
`
`As soon as possible, but no later than 14 days from the date of this letter, submit the content of
`labeling [21 CFR 314.50(l)] in structured product labeling (SPL) format using the FDA
`automated drug registration and listing system (eLIST), as described at
`http://www.fda.gov/ForIndustry/DataStandards/StructuredProductLabeling/default.htm. Content
`of labeling must be identical to the enclosed labeling (text for the package insert, text for the
`
`patient package insert), with the addition of any labeling changes in pending “Changes Being
`Effected” (CBE) supplements, as well as annual reportable changes not included in the enclosed
`labeling.
`
`Information on submitting SPL files using eList may be found in the guidance for industry titled
`“SPL Standard for Content of Labeling Technical Qs and As at
`http://www.fda.gov/downloads/DrugsGuidanceComplianceRegulatoryInformation/Guidances/U
`CM072392.pdf
`
`The SPL will be accessible from publicly available labeling repositories.

`Reference ID: 3346493

`
`
`Also within 14 days, amend all pending supplemental applications that includes labeling changes
`for this NDA, including CBE supplements for which FDA has not yet issued an action letter,
`with the content of labeling [21 CFR 314.50(l)(1)(i)] in MS Word format, that includes the
`changes approved in this supplemental application, as well as annual reportable changes and
`annotate each change. To facilitate review of your submission, provide a highlighted or marked-
`up copy that shows all changes, as well as a clean Microsoft Word version. The marked-up copy
`should provide appropriate annotations, including supplement number(s) and annual report
`date(s).
`
`REQUIRED PEDIATRIC ASSESSMENTS
`
`Under the Pediatric Research Equity Act (PREA) (21 U.S.C. 355c), all applications for new
`active ingredients, new indications, new dosage forms, new dosing regimens, or new routes of
`administration are required to contain an assessment of the safety and effectiveness of the
`product for the claimed indication(s) in pediatric patients unless this requirement is waived,
`deferred, or inapplicable.
`
`Because none of these criteria apply to your application, you are exempt from this requirement.
`
`REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
`
`
`We remind you that you must comply with reporting requirements for an approved NDA
`(21 CFR 314.80 and 314.81).
`
`If you have any questions, call Barbara Gould, Regulatory Project Manager, at (301) 796-3935.
`

`Sincerely,
