Item 8.01        Other Events.

 

On March 22, 2016, Insys Therapeutics, Inc. announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has extended, for three months, the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date for SyndrosTM (dronabinol oral solution) until July 1, 2016.

 

Insys voluntarily submitted information, which did not involve any clinical data, related to the scheduling of Syndros under the Controlled Substances Act. The FDA determined that this information constituted a major amendment to this New Drug Application and exercised its option to extend the PDUFA date to provide the FDA time to complete its review.

 

The Company announced the extension of the PDUFA date pursuant to a press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
