Court sides with FDA in Van­da clin­i­cal hold suit

The US Dis­trict Court for the Dis­trict of Co­lum­bia on Fri­day ruled in the FDA’s fa­vor in a case brought by Van­da Phar­ma­ceu­ti­cals con­cern­ing a par­tial clin­i­cal hold placed on a study of the com­pa­ny’s in­ves­ti­ga­tion­al drug tradip­i­tant in De­cem­ber 2018.

In the de­ci­sion, Judge John Bates de­nied Van­da’s mo­tions for sum­ma­ry judge­ment and re­fused to al­low the fil­ing of an am­i­cus brief by the Hu­mane So­ci­ety that chal­lenged the FDA’s jus­ti­fi­ca­tion for an ad­di­tion­al an­i­mal study.
