DSCSA
• Beginning on January 1, 2015, a trading partner
who determines that a product in its possession
or control is an illegitimate product must notify
the Food and Drug Administration (FDA or
Agency) and certain immediate trading partners
under section 582 of the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360eee), as
added by the Drug Supply Chain Security Act
(DSCSA).
• Trading partner - manufacturers, repackagers,
wholesale distributors, or dispensers
Current OCBQ Priorities - 2
• Program Alignment
– Working with other agency components to address Dr.
Hamburg’s decisions for implementation, communicated
by memorandum on February 3, 2014.
• Other quality initiatives
– Working with other agency components to update quality
guidance and implement standards for quality (e.g.,
Council on Pharmaceutical Quality)
• Preparedness activities
– Centers for Innovation and Advanced Development in
Manufacturing
– Ebola
• International
– Mutual Reliance Initiative
Current OCBQ Priorities - 3
• OCBQ Move to the White Oak Campus.
– OCBQ moved May 16 – August 25, 2014 – lot
release laboratories relocated last.
– Pause for lot release sample submission until
September 2, 2014; no effect on lot release
protocols or release of products
• What’s next?
– Increasing filling and lyophilization capacity for
production of reagents and standards for the
other Essential Regulatory Laboratories,
manufacturers and other global partners.

United States v. Regenerative Sciences,
LLC and Christopher Centeno, et al.
• The complaint for the injunction was filed August 6, 2010,
by the Justice Department on behalf of the FDA in the U.S.
District Court for the District of Columbia, against
Regenerative Sciences and three of its employees,
Christopher J. Centeno, M.D., John R. Schultz, M.D., and
Michelle R. Cheever. The injunction the government
requested would permanently prevent the company and
cited individuals from adulterating and misbranding the
cultured cell product (or any other drug) while the product,
or one or more of its components, is held for sale after
shipment in interstate commerce.
• Regenerative Sciences agreed to cease production of the
cultured cell product while the case is pending.

US vs Regenerative Sciences LLC - 2
• On July 23, 2012, United States District Judge Rosemary
Collyer granted summary judgment for the government and
issued a permanent injunction prohibiting the defendants,
from distributing adulterated or misbranded drugs or
causing them to become adulterated or misbranded after
shipment of one or more of their components in interstate
commerce.
• The product at issue is an autologous cultured cell product
that was subject to more than minimal manipulation during
manufacturing and that was promoted as a treatment for a
variety of orthopedic conditions. The court held that this
product is a “drug” under the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act and rejected the defendants' argument that it
falls within the "practice of medicine" and thus outside the
scope of the Act.
10
US vs Regenerative Sciences LLC -3
• The court also held that the Act's interstate commerce
requirement was satisfied because its components were
shipped in interstate commerce. The court also dismissed
the eight counterclaims filed by the defendants, which
challenged, under various theories, FDA's authority to
regulate the autologous cell products and FDA's regulations
for human cellular and tissue based products.
• Regenerative appealed the decision and on February
4, 2014, the DC Federal Circuit Court of Appeals ruled
in the Agency’s favor
