The contract manufacturer for vamorolone, will not be ready for an FDA inspection until 4Q22, so completion of the NDA will not be until the end of the year. The FDA extended the PDUFA for teplizumab by three-months to allow more time to review labeling and if any post-marketing requirements are required. The new PDUFA date is 11/17/2022.

Gilead developed a new type of vial and the hold was lifted in May 2022. Gilead resubmitted an NDA for lenacapavir for the treatment of multi-drug resistant HIV-1 infection in June 2022.
