[Docket No. FDA-2009-N-0665]

 
New Animal Drugs; Change of Sponsor; Sometribove Zinc Suspension

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION:  Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal 
drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor for sometribove zinc 
suspension from Monsanto Co. to Elanco Animal Health, A Division of Eli 
Lilly & Co.

DATES: This rule is effective October 16, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David R. Newkirk, Center for 
Veterinary Medicine (HFV-100), Food and Drug Administration, 7500 
Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 240-276-8307, e-mail: 
david.newkirk@fda.hhs.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Monsanto Co., 800 North Lindbergh Blvd., St. 
Louis, MO 63167, has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, 
and all rights and interest in, NADA 140-872 for POSILAC (sometribove 
zinc suspension) to Elanco Animal Health, A Division of Eli Lilly & 
Co., Lilly Corporate Center, Indianapolis, IN 46285. Accordingly, the 
regulations are amended in 21 CFR 522.2112 to reflect this change of 
sponsorship.
    Following this change of sponsorship, Monsanto Co. is no longer the 
sponsor of an approved application. Accordingly, 21 CFR 510.600(c) is 
being amended to remove the entries for Monsanto Co.
    This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 
804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.'' 
Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements 
in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
