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
https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm 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. On November 21, 2024, the Committee will meet in
open session to discuss and make
[[Page 80252]]
recommendations on supplemental biologics license application 125586/
546 from AstraZeneca AB, submitted to confirm the clinical benefit of
Andexxa (coagulation factor Xa (recombinant), inactivated -zhzo), for
patients treated with rivaroxaban or apixaban when reversal of
anticoagulation is needed due to life-threatening or uncontrolled
bleeding.
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 submitted to the Docket (see
ADDRESSES) on or before November 14, 2024, will be provided to the
Committee. Oral presentations from the public will be scheduled between
approximately 1:10 p.m. and 2:10 p.m. Eastern Time on November 21,
2024. 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, along

proposed participants, and an indication of the approximate time
requested to make their presentation on or before 12 p.m. Eastern Time
on November 6, 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 6 p.m.
Eastern Time on November 8, 2024.

Notice of this meeting is given under the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (5 U.S.C. 1001 et seq.). This meeting notice also serves
as notice that, pursuant to 21 CFR 10.19, the requirements in 21 CFR
14.22(b), (f), and (g) relating to the location of advisory committee

using an online meeting platform. This waiver is in the interest of
allowing greater transparency and opportunities for public
participation, in addition to convenience for advisory committee
members, speakers, and guest speakers. No participant will be
prejudiced by this waiver, and that the ends of justice will be served
by allowing for this modification to FDA's advisory committee meeting
procedures.
