FY 2009 MDUFA Performance Report Table of Contents
The table below presents FDA’s review performance for submissions over the last 5 years that do not have explicit MDUFA II performance goals. FDA’s performance in FY 2009 continued to be comparable to performance during the previous 4 years, with the exception of FY 2008 135-day PMA supplements. FDA’s performance for 135-day PMA supplements in FY 2009 returned to performance levels comparable to FY 2005 through FY 2007, after performance fell below these levels in FY 2008.

Biologics Applications Review Performance for FY 2008 and FY 2009
MDUFA II does not provide explicit performance goals for biologics applications; however, FDA continues to report on performance for biologics applications using performance goals defined under MDUFMA I. This approach is part of FDA’s general commitment to maintain and report on performance on review workloads not covered by MDUFA II performance goals.
Performance for FY 2008
The table below updates FDA’s final performance for reviewing and acting on biologics applications in FY 2008. FDA reviewed on time 100 percent (15 of 15) of filed standard BLAs, 100 percent (227 of 227) of submitted BLA manufacturing supplements, 98 percent (100 of 102) of resubmitted “Class 1” BLAs and BLA efficacy supplements, and 100 percent (2 of 2) of resubmitted “Class 2” BLAs and BLA efficacy supplements in FY 2008 (see table below). As a result, FDA exceeded all performance goals for BLAs, BLA supplements, and resubmitted BLAs and BLA efficacy supplements for FY 2008 in areas where submissions were received.

Performance for FY 2009
The table below presents FDA’s preliminary performance for reviewing and acting on biologics applications in FY 2009. As of September 30, 2009, performance data was available for over four-fifths (81 of 95) of BLA manufacturing supplement submissions and over half (15 of 29) of “Class 1” BLA and BLA efficacy supplement resubmissions (see table below). With submissions pending within goal for standard BLAs, BLA manufacturing supplement submissions, standard BLA efficacy supplement submissions, and “Class 1” BLA and BLA efficacy supplement resubmissions, FDA has the potential to exceed the performance goals in these areas for FY 2009.
