`
`Dear Ms. Carter:
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Please refer to your Supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) dated and received
`
`
`September 4, 2014, submitted under section 505(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic

`
`Act (FDCA) for Juxtapid (lomitapide) capsules, 5, 10, and 20 mg.
`
`
`
`
`We acknowledge receipt of your amendments dated November 7, December 4, 2014, and
`
`January 15, and February 4, 2015.
`
`
`The January 15, 2015, submission constituted a complete response to our December 23, 2014,
`
`action letter.
`
`
`
`
`
`This “Prior Approval” supplemental new drug application provides for the addition of 30, 40,
`
`and 60 mg strength capsules and associated labeling revisions.
`
` APPROVAL & 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.

`
`
`
`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
`
`
`
`
`Medication Guide, carton and container labeling), with the addition of any labeling changes in
`
`
`pending “Changes Being Effected” (CBE) supplements, as well as annual reportable changes not
