Committee Information Line, 1-800-741-8138 (301-443-0572 in the
Washington, DC area). A notice in the Federal Register about last
minute modifications that impact a previously announced advisory
committee meeting cannot always be published quickly enough to provide
timely notice. Therefore, you should always check the FDA's website at
<a href="https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm">https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm</a> and scroll down to
the appropriate advisory committee meeting link, or call the advisory
committee information line to learn about possible modifications before
coming to the meeting.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Agenda: The meeting presentations will be heard, viewed, captioned,
and recorded through an online teleconferencing platform. The committee
will discuss new drug application (NDA) 216660, for sodium
phenylbutyrate/taurursodiol (AMX0035) powder for oral suspension,
submitted by Amylyx Pharmaceuticals, Inc., for the treatment of
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
FDA intends to make the meeting's background material and pre-
recorded presentations available to the public no later than 2 business
days before the meeting. The pre-recorded presentations will be viewed
by the committee prior to the meeting and will not be replayed on
meeting day. If FDA is unable to post the background material and/or
pre-recorded presentations on its website prior to the meeting, the
background material and/or pre-recorded presentations will be made
publicly available on FDA's website at the time of the advisory
committee meeting. The meeting will include brief summaries of the pre-
recorded presentations. The pre-recorded presentations and brief
summaries will include slide presentations with audio components to
allow the presentation of materials in a manner that most closely
resembles an in-person advisory committee meeting. Background material
and the link to the online teleconference meeting room will be
available at <a href="https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm">https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm</a>. Scroll down to the appropriate advisory committee meeting
link.
Procedure: Interested persons may present data, information, or
views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee.
All electronic and written submissions submitted to the Docket (see
ADDRESSES) on or before March 16, 2022, will be provided to the
committee. Oral presentations from the public will be scheduled between
approximately 1:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Those individuals
interested in making formal oral presentations should notify the
contact person and submit a brief statement of the general nature of
the evidence or arguments they wish to present, the names and addresses
of proposed participants, and an indication of the approximate time
requested to make their presentation on or before March 8, 2022. Time
allotted for each presentation may be limited. If the number of
registrants requesting to speak is greater than can be reasonably
accommodated during the scheduled open public hearing session, FDA may
conduct a lottery to determine the speakers for the scheduled open
public hearing session. The contact person will notify interested
persons regarding their request to speak by March 9, 2022.
