`Noven Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
`Attention: Fei Shao, Ph.D.
`Manager, Regulatory Affairs
`100 Town Square Place, 5th Floor
`Jersey City, NJ 07310
`
`
`Dear Dr. Shao:
`
`Refer to your supplemental new drug application (sNDA) dated and received
`December 4, 2023, submitted under section 505(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and
`Cosmetic Act (FDCA) for Minivielle (estradiol transdermal system)..
`
`We also refer to our letter dated November 6, 2023, notifying you, under Section
`505(o)(4) of the FDCA, of new safety information that we have determined should be
`included in the labeling for menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) products. This
`information pertains to the risk of breast cancer associated with the duration of use of
`MHT products.
`
`This supplemental new drug application provides for revisions to the labeling for
`Minivielle, consistent with our November 6, 2023, Safety Labeling Change Notification.
`
`
`APPROVAL & LABELING
`
`We have completed our review of this application. It is approved, effective on the date of
`this letter, for use as recommended in the enclosed agreed-upon labeling.
`
`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
`FDA.gov.1 Content of labeling must be identical to the enclosed labeling (text for the
`Prescribing Information, Patient Package Insert, and Instructions for Use), 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 SPL Standard for Content of Labeling Technical Qs and As.2
`
`The SPL will be accessible from publicly available labeling repositories.
`
`
`REQUIRED PEDIATRIC ASSESSMENTS
`
`Under the Pediatric Research Equity Act (PREA) (21 U.S.C. 355c), all applications for
`new active ingredients (which includes new salts and new fixed combinations), 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 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.
`
`PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS
`
`All promotional materials that include representations about your drug product must be
`promptly revised to be consistent with the labeling changes approved in this
`supplement, including any new safety- related information [21 CFR 314.70(a)(4)]. The
`revisions in your promotional materials should include prominent disclosure of the
`important new safety-related information that appears in the revised labeling. Within 7
`days of receipt of this letter, submit your statement of intent to comply with 21 CFR
`314.70(a)(4).
`
`
`REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
`
`We remind you that you must comply with reporting requirements for an approved NDA
`(21 CFR 314.80 and 314.81).
