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 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 and/or video
conferencing platform. The Committee will discuss efficacy and safety
data submitted in support of a new drug application (NDA) 214511 for
pegulicianine for injection, the optical imaging drug constituent of a
drug/device combination product, submitted by Lumicell, Inc. The
proposed indication for pegulicianine is for use in patients with
breast cancer to assist in the detection of cancerous tissue within the
lumpectomy cavity following removal of the primary specimen during
lumpectomy surgery.
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 and/or video conference meeting will
be available at https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/

Calendar/default.htm. Scroll down to the appropriate advisory committee
meeting link. The meeting will include slide presentations with audio
and video 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 to the Docket (see ADDRESSES) on
or before February 20, 2024, will be provided to the Committee. Oral
presentations from the public will be scheduled between approximately
2:30 p.m. and 3:30 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 February 9, 2024. 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 February 12, 2024.
