New Animal Drugs; Change of Sponsor

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION:  Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY:  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal 
drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor for an approved new 
animal drug application (NADA) from Fujisawa USA, Inc., to American 
Pharmaceutical Partners, Inc.

EFFECTIVE DATE:  September 29, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:  Thomas J. McKay, Center for 
Veterinary Medicine (HFV-102), Food and Drug Administration, 7500 
Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 301-827-0213.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  Fujisawa USA, Inc., Deerfield, IL 60015-
2548, has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all 
rights and interests in, NADA 100-840 (Chorionic Gonadotropin) to 
American Pharmaceuticals Partners, Inc., 2045 North Cornell Ave., 
Melrose Park, IL 60160. Accordingly, the agency is amending the 
regulations in 21 CFR 510.600 and 522.1081 to reflect the transfer of 
ownership. The agency is also amending the regulations in 21 CFR

alphabetically adding a new listing for American Pharmaceuticals 
Partners, Inc.
