Determination That FORTESTA 

(Testosterone) Gel, 10 Milligrams/0.5 

Gram Actuation, Was Not Withdrawn 

From Sale for Reasons of Safety or 

Effectiveness 

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, 

HHS. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug 

Administration (FDA or Agency) has 

determined that FORTESTA 

(testosterone) gel, 10 milligrams (mg)/ 

0.5 gram (gm) actuation, was not 

withdrawn from sale for reasons of 

safety or effectiveness. This 

determination means that FDA will not 

begin procedures to withdraw approval 

of abbreviated new drug applications 

(ANDAs) that refer to this drug product, 

and it will allow FDA to continue to 

approve ANDAs that refer to the 

product as long as they meet relevant 

legal and regulatory requirements.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

505(j) of the Federal Food, Drug, and 

Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 

355(j)) allows the submission of an 

ANDA to market a generic version of a 

previously approved drug product. To 

obtain approval, the ANDA applicant 

must show, among other things, that the 

generic drug product: (1) has the same 

active ingredient(s), dosage form, route 

of administration, strength, conditions 

of use, and (with certain exceptions) 

labeling as the listed drug, which is a 

version of the drug that was previously 

approved, and (2) is bioequivalent to the 

listed drug. ANDA applicants do not 

have to repeat the extensive clinical 

testing otherwise necessary to gain 

approval of a new drug application 

(NDA). 

Section 505(j)(7) of the FD&C Act 

requires FDA to publish a list of all 

approved drugs. FDA publishes this list 

as part of the ‘‘Approved Drug Products 

With Therapeutic Equivalence 

Evaluations,’’ which is known generally 

as the ‘‘Orange Book.’’ Under FDA 

regulations, drugs are removed from the 

list if the Agency withdraws or 

suspends approval of the drug’s NDA or

Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 224 / Wednesday, November 20, 2024 / Notices 91771 

ANDA for reasons of safety or 

effectiveness or if FDA determines that 

the listed drug was withdrawn from sale 

for reasons of safety or effectiveness (21 

CFR 314.162). 

A person may petition the Agency to 

determine, or the Agency may 

determine on its own initiative, whether 

a listed drug was withdrawn from sale 

for reasons of safety or effectiveness. 

This determination may be made at any 

time after the drug has been withdrawn 

from sale but must be made prior to 

approving an ANDA that refers to the 

listed drug (§ 314.161 (21 CFR 314.161)). 

FDA may not approve an ANDA that 

does not refer to a listed drug. 

FORTESTA (testosterone) Gel, 10 mg/ 

0.5 gm actuation, is the subject of NDA 

021463, held by Endo Operations Ltd., 

and initially approved on December 29, 

2020. FORTESTA is indicated for 

replacement therapy in males for 

conditions associated with a deficiency 

or absence of endogenous testosterone: 

primary hypogonadism (congenital or 

acquired), hypogonadotropic 

hypogonadism (congenital or acquired). 

In a letter dated December 1, 2023, 

Endo Operations Ltd., notified FDA that 

FORTESTA (testosterone) gel, 10 mg/0.5 

gm actuation, was being discontinued, 

and FDA moved the drug product to the 

‘‘Discontinued Drug Product List’’ 

section of the Orange Book. 

Encube Ethicals Private Limited 

submitted a citizen petition dated May 

22, 2024 (Docket No. FDA–2024–P– 

2515), under 21 CFR 10.30, requesting 

that the Agency determine whether 

FORTESTA (testosterone) gel, 10 mg/0.5 

gm actuation, was withdrawn from sale 

for reasons of safety or effectiveness. 

After considering the citizen petition 

and reviewing Agency records and 

based on the information we have at this 

time, FDA has determined under 

§ 314.161 that FORTESTA (testosterone) 

gel, 10 mg/0.5 gm actuation, was not 

withdrawn for reasons of safety or 

effectiveness. The petitioner has 

identified no data or other information 

suggesting that this drug product was 

withdrawn for reasons of safety or 

effectiveness. We have carefully 

reviewed our files for records 

concerning the withdrawal of 

FORTESTA (testosterone) gel, 10 mg/0.5 

gm actuation, from sale. We have also 

independently evaluated relevant 

literature and data for possible postmarketing adverse events. We have 

found no information that would 

indicate that this drug product was 

withdrawn from sale for reasons of 

safety or effectiveness. 

Accordingly, the Agency will 

continue to list FORTESTA 

(testosterone) gel, 10 mg/0.5 gm 

actuation, in the ‘‘Discontinued Drug 

Product List’’ section of the Orange 

Book. The ‘‘Discontinued Drug Product 

List’’ delineates, among other items, 

drug products that have been 

discontinued from marketing for reasons 

other than safety or effectiveness. FDA 

will not begin procedures to withdraw 

approval of approved ANDAs that refer 

to this drug product. Additional ANDAs 

for this drug product may also be 

approved by the Agency as long as they 

meet all other legal and regulatory 

requirements for the approval of 

ANDAs. If FDA determines that labeling 

for this drug product should be revised 

to meet current standards, the Agency 

will advise ANDA applicants to submit 

such labeling.
