Please call the Information Line for up-to-date information on this 
meeting. 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 the Agency's Web site and 
call the appropriate advisory committee hot line/phone line to learn 
about possible modifications before coming to the meeting.
    Agenda: On April 12, 2011, during the morning session, the 
committee will discuss supplemental new drug application (sNDA) 022334/
S-009, trade name AFINITOR (everolimus) tablets, application submitted

this product is for the treatment of patients with advanced

origin.

021938/S-013, trade name SUTENT (sunitinib malate) capsules, 
application submitted by C.P. Pharmaceuticals International C.V., 
represented by Pfizer, Inc. (authorized U.S. agent). The proposed 
indication (use) for this product is for the treatment of unresectable 
pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET).
    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 Web site prior to the meeting, the 
background material will be made publicly available at the location of 
the advisory committee meeting, and the background material will be 
posted on FDA's Web site after the meeting. Background material is 
available at http://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm. Scroll down to the appropriate advisory committee link.
    Procedure: Interested persons may present data, information, or 
views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee. 
Written submissions may be made to the contact person on or before 
March 29, 2011. Oral presentations from the public will be scheduled 
between approximately 10:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. 
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, the names and 
addresses of proposed participants, and an indication of the 
approximate time requested to make their presentation on or before 
March 21, 2011. 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 March 22, 2011.
    Persons attending FDA's advisory committee meetings are advised 
that the Agency is not responsible for providing access to electrical
