Home About 503B Services Ordering Resources Contact Repackaged Avastin® Service FDA compliant Repackaged Avastin From Leiters According to a 2017 survey conducted by the American Society of Retina Specialists, ‘Global Trends in Retina’, Avastin is the most commonly used first-line drug for most retinal diseases1. Avastin must be repackaged into individual doses for ophthalmic use. In January of 2018, the FDA issued its final guidance on the repackaging of biological products. This guidance required FDA-registered outsourcing facilities to develop new methods for repackaging Avastin, a vital medication for the treatment of retinal diseases. This Industry Bulletin describes the background behind the FDA’s action and chronicles one 503B outsourcing facility’s journey to meet the new guidance.
