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 the
meeting.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Agenda: The meeting presentations will be heard, viewed, captioned,
and recorded through an online teleconferencing platform. The committee
will discuss the available data for supplemental new drug application
021845-S025, REVATIO (sildenafil citrate tablets), submitted by Viatris
Specialty, LLC, to support an indication for pediatric patients 1 to 17
years old for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (World
Health Organization Group I) to improve exercise ability and pulmonary
hemodynamics. The committee will also discuss the results of the
postmarketing safety study A1481324, titled ``A Multinational,
Multicenter Study to Assess the Effects of Oral Sildenafil on Mortality
in Adults with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).''
FDA intends to make background material available to the public no
later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post
the background material on its website prior to the meeting, the
background material will be made publicly available on FDA's website at
the time of the 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. The meeting
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.
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 November 29, 2022, will be provided to the
committee. Oral presentations from the public will be scheduled between
approximately 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 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 November 18, 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 November 21, 2022.
