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 
at http://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 
coming to the meeting.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Agenda: The committees will discuss new drug application (NDA) 
209777, for oxycodone hydrochloride immediate-release oral tablets, 
submitted by Inspirion Delivery Sciences, LLC., with the proposed 
indication of management of moderate to severe pain where the use of an 
opioid analgesic is appropriate. The product has been formulated with 
properties intended to deter abuse, and the applicant has submitted 
data to support these abuse-deterrent properties for this product. The 
committees will be asked to discuss the overall risk-benefit profile of 
the product, and whether the applicant has demonstrated abuse-deterrent 
properties for their product that would support labeling.
    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 meeting 
link.
    Procedure: On April 5, 2017, from 9:15 a.m. to 5 p.m., the meeting 
is open to the public. Interested persons may present data, 
information, or views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before 
the committees. All electronic and written submissions submitted to the 
Docket (see the Addresses section) on or before March 22, 2017, will be 
provided to the committees. Oral presentations from the public will be 
scheduled between approximately 1:30 p.m. and 2:30 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 14, 2017. 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 15, 2017.
    Closed Committee Deliberations: On April 5, 2017, from 8 a.m. to
