The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced on 2 October 2018 that it had released new draft guidance designed to limit the use of citizen petitions to delay approval of generics and biosimilars. The new guidance informs brand-name drugmakers how the agency would highlight any improper use of these petitions in its annual reports filed with Congress. It also highlights FDA’s intention to refer petitions that it judges as an attempt to delay competition to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
