FDA accepts Sanofi’s Eloxatin prescribing information

Sanofi-Aventis has said that the FDA has accepted for filing and assigned priority review status to a supplemental new drug application that proposes changes to the Eloxatin prescribing information.

In the proposed PI changes, company is seeking the inclusion of six-year overall survival and five-year disease free survival data in Stage III colon cancer patients treated with either Folfox4 (Eloxatin- based chemotherapy regimen) or standard infusional 5-FU/LV-based chemotherapy alone, following surgery to remove the primary tumor.

A priority review designation sets the target date for the completion of the FDA’s review of the proposed changes at or before six months from the date of filing.
