Abstract
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: To examine the prevalence of new indications for existing drugs conducted by non-originator companies from 2015 to 2021 and determine how many could qualify for 505(b)(2) under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A search within Clinicaltrials.gov was conducted to identify phase 3 drug interventional studies completed from 2015 to 2021. Results were categorized by funding source and industry sponsored studies were further separated into originator- and non-originator companies using dailymed.com. An in-depth review of 2018 was conducted to understand the nature of the studies including indication, dosage form, and route of administration. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: According to clinicaltrials.gov, a total of 7148 phase 3 studies were conducted between 2015 and 2021. Most of these studies were funded by industry (4447, 66.21%), followed by other (2428, 33.97%), NIH (266, 3.72%), and government (62, 0.87%). In-depth examination of the studies completed in 2018 (n=1077) revealed similar pattern in that most were funded by industry (674, 62.58%) followed by other (356, 33.05%), NIH (43, 3.99%), and government (10, 0.93%). Some studies were funded by more than one type. Of the industry-sponsored studies, 623 were funded by originator companies and 51 by non-originator companies. A total of 49/674 of the industry sponsored studies were for new indications, with 42 studies conducted by originator companies and 7 conducted by non-originator companies. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The 505(b)(2) is a way for manufacturers to add new indications to drugs by non-originator companies. In 2018, 49/674 studies were conducted to pursue new indications with few, 7/49, conducted by non-originator companies. The product development landscape reveals few opportunities for entities pursuing the 505(b)(2) pathway for new indications.
