New Animal Drugs; Change of Sponsor

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor for two new animal drug applications (NADAs) and three abbreviated new animal drug applications (ANADAs) from Delmarva Pharmaceuticals, Inc., to Virbac AH, Inc.

DATES: This rule is effective September 29, 2003.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David R. Newkirk, Center for Veterinary Medicine (HFV-100), Food and Drug Administration, 7500 Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 301-827-6967, e-mail: dnewkirk@cvm.fda.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Delmarva Laboratories, Inc., 1500 Huguenot Rd., suite 106, Midlothian, VA 23113, has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and interest in, the following two approved NADAs and three approved ANADAs to Virbac AH, Inc., 3200 Meacham Blvd., Ft. Worth, TX 76137:

21 CFR

Application No.

Section

Trade Name

NADA 065-492

520.88f ROBAMOX V (amoxicillin trihydrate) Tablets

[[Page 55824]]

Accordingly, the agency is amending the regulations in Sec. Sec. 520.88b, 520.88f, 520.446, 520.447, and 522.900 to reflect the transfer of ownership.

Following these changes of sponsorship, Delmarva Laboratories, Inc., is no longer the sponsor of an approved application. Accordingly, 21 CFR 510.600(c) is being amended to remove the entries for Delmarva Laboratories, Inc.

This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.'' Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
