AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

    General Function of the Committee: To provide advice and 
recommendations to the Agency on FDA's regulatory issues.

Date and Time:
     The meeting will be held on February 3, 2016, from 8 a.m. to 5 
p.m.
    Location: FDA White Oak Campus, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 31

[[Page 74777]]

appropriate advisory committee meeting link, or call the advisory 
committee information line to learn about possible modifications before 
coming to the meeting.
    Agenda: During the morning session, the committee will discuss 
cognitive dysfunction in major depressive disorder (MDD). This is an 
evolving concept and experts in the field have not yet reached 
consensus as to whether cognitive dysfunction in MDD is a distinct 
entity. The committee will consider the clinical presentation of 
cognitive dysfunction in MDD, as well as methods for assessing this 
condition.
    During the afternoon session, the committee will discuss new drug 
application 204447/supplemental new drug application 006, for the 
effectiveness of vortioxetine for the treatment of cognitive 
dysfunction in MDD, submitted by Takeda Development Center Americas, 
Inc.
    FDA intends to make background material available to the public no 
later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post 
the background material on its Web site prior to the meeting, the 
background material will be made publicly available at the location of 
the advisory committee meeting, and the background material will be 
posted on FDA's Web site after the meeting. Background material is 
available at http://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm. Scroll down to the appropriate advisory committee meeting 
link.
    Procedure: Interested persons may present data, information, or 
views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee. 
Written submissions may be made to the contact person on or before 
January 20, 2016. Oral presentations from the public will be scheduled 
between approximately 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. Those individuals interested in 
making formal oral presentations should notify the contact person and 
submit a brief statement of the general nature of the evidence or 
arguments they wish to present, the names and addresses of proposed 
participants, and an indication of the approximate time requested to 
make their presentation on or before January 11, 2016. Time allotted 
for each presentation may be limited. If the number of registrants 
requesting to speak is greater than can be reasonably accommodated 
during the scheduled open public hearing session, FDA may conduct a 
lottery to determine the speakers for the scheduled open public hearing 
session. The contact person will notify interested persons regarding 
their request to speak by January 12, 2016.
    Persons attending FDA's advisory committee meetings are advised 
that the Agency is not responsible for providing access to electrical 
outlets.
    FDA welcomes the attendance of the public at its advisory committee 
meetings and will make every effort to accommodate persons with 
disabilities. If you require accommodations due to a disability, please 
contact Kalyani Bhatt at least 7 days in advance of the meeting.
    FDA is committed to the orderly conduct of its advisory committee 
meetings. Please visit our Web site at http://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/AboutAdvisoryCommittees/ucm111462.htm for procedures
