GenBioPro is a United States pharmaceutical company which makes and distributes a generic version of the medication abortion drug mifepristone.

History

In 2019 GenBioPro obtained Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorization to sell a generic version of mifepristone (before that, Danco Laboratories was the only company that distributed it in the United States).[1][2] Despite the FDA saying that it tries to approve generic drug applications in 10 months, this application was approved after 10 years (the company applied in 2009).[3]

In 2023, GenBioPro sued the FDA to obtain a legal judgement confirming that mifepristone could continue to be sold, in spite of anti-abortion laws passed in some states.[4][5]

The agency typically aims to approve abbreviated new drug applications — those submitted for generics — within 10 months, but the process can take longer depending on how many questions or concerns reviewers have. There's also precedent for the FDA to take time on mifepristone decisions — GenBioPro, the first generic maker for the drug, first applied for approval in 2009 and fielded a rejection in 2018 before getting approval the following year during the first Trump administration.
