ViroPharma Incorporated (Nasdaq: VPHM) today announced the U.S FDA issued a complete response letter regarding Cinryze® (C1 Esterase Inhibitor [Human]) industrial scale manufacturing expansion activities. Specifically, the FDA has three comments related to a portion of the cleaning validation for industrial scale manufacturing, of which only one requires additional unplanned activity. The company expects that the additional activity required to address this comment can be completed in a short time frame. The FDA also noted that it has not yet completed the review of ViroPharma's January 2012 updated responses to observations specific to the September 2011 inspection of the Amsterdam facility. There are no remaining technical comments posed by FDA in the complete response letter. The company intends to provide an update to shareholders on specific timing of resubmission and expected action dates during the 2011 Financial Results conference call to be held later this month.
