(Non-Clinical & Clinical Documentation)
1. The firm has not submitted any evidence that the applied product is registered in any reference
country.
2. The application has been sent to Legal Affairs Division, DRAP and their opinion regarding grant of
additional manufacturing site is still awaited.
Decision of 331st DRB: The Board noted that opinion of the legal division for grant of additional
manufacturing site is yet to come and therefore decided to defer the case and to place the matter before the
Board after seeking opinion from Legal Affairs Division of the DRAP.

The comments of Legal Affairs Division are as under:

“Reference para 289/N. The Registration Board, in its 330th meeting held on 24th to 26th July, 2023,
referred the matter of M/s Novo Nordisk Pharma (Pvt.) Limited, Karachi for the addition of a manufacturing
site for its already registered biological products. The existing manufacturing site is M/s Novo Nordisk
Production SAS, 45 Avenue d’ Orleans, F-28000 Chartres, France and the demanded additional
manufacturing site is M/s Eskayef Pharmaceuticals Limited, 400 Squibb Road, Tongi Industrial Area, Tongi,
Ghazipur 1711, Bangladesh.

The case has been examined and it is found that the law is silent on the issue of allowing an additional
manufacturing site for a registered product. Previously, during the pandemic of Covid-19, M/s Roche Pakistan
Limited, Karachi made a similar request which was considered in 295th meeting of the Registration Board
held on 8th to 11th June, 2020 and the Board approved the addition of M/s Genetech Inc., 4625 NE Brookwood
Parkway, Hillsboro, OR 97124, USA as manufacturing site for Actemra 400mg/20ml (Reg. No. 083136) as an
interim measure subject to certain conditions due to the fact that the firm’s global supply chain is unable to
fulfill the demand of many international markets from the existing manufacturing facility (M/s Utsunomiya
Plant of Chugai Pharma Manufacturing Co., Limited, 16-3, Kiyohara Kogyodanchi, Utsunomiya-city,
Tochigi, Japan).

The instant case may be considered in light of the aforesaid decision of the Registration Board as
insulins are included in the Model List of Essential Medicines – 23rd List (2023) published by the World Health
Organization (WHO) and notified by the Ministry of National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination
vide Notification No. F.8-43/2021-DD(PS) dated 2nd October, 2023 under paragraph 2(1)(xi) of the Drug
Pricing Policy, 2018.

The Registration Board may develop guidelines for allowing additional manufacturing sites keeping
in view the safety, efficacy and quality parameters of a product.”

Remarks of Evaluator Non- clinical and Clinical trial data are not submitted by the
firm. Registration Board in its 271st meeting considered that
Heparin Sodium Injection is non-rDNA pharmacopoeial
product, hence, revised its decision of 260th meeting and granted
the approvals on the basis of valid legalized CoPP & availability
in country of origin.
Previous Decision: Keeping in view the availability of product in country of origin as per submitted CoPP
and Heparin Injection being non-rDNA pharmacopoeial product; Registration Board approved the product as
per current Import Policy for finished drugs (M-320).
Evaluation by BE&R: Initially, the applied product was considered and approved in 320th meeting of
Registration Board. After that, the panel comprising of Mr. Muhammad Kashif and Mr. Faisal Shehzad
conducted virtual GMP inspection on 10-04-2023 & 11-04-2023 and concluded as following:

“Based on the proceedings of virtual inspection, documents reviewed and videos of the unit seen,
and considering the fact that Heparin sodium is a polysaccharide (no killed/attenuated
organism in final product), the panel has concluded that the firm has adequate systems to
manufacture heparin sodium and appeared to comply with the cGMP requirements. However,
the panel also observed during virtual inspection documentary review that the manufacturer

Minutes of 332nd meeting of Registration Board (05th December, 2023) | 24


does not hold CoPP for applied strength of 25000 IU in China. Hence, the panel
recommended that the provisions under DRAP Act, 2012 and relevant rules must be checked
for grant of registration for such biological drugs. The importing firm may also be directed to
update DRAP for inclusion of manufacturing of any other biological drug in bulk production
and / or filling area by the manufacturer along with their NRA approval, QRM report and re-
validation of cleaning, if added in future.”

During further processing of the case, it was observed that the product is not licensed to be placed on the
market for use in China. Recently, the firm has submitted that our product is manufactured under license of
Ministry of Health of China. The product is also being exported and registered with health authorities of
Republic of the Philippines, Uzbekistan and Bolivia. Copies of registration certificates for these countries
have been provided.
Decision: Registration Board deferred the case for evidence of availability of product in the country of
origin or in RRA or in any three eastern European countries from same manufacturer.
