Vanjani said:

“We note that neither Mylan nor Biocon would comment on Neulasta’s updated timing. We spoke with a manufacturing consultant who believed that biosimilar Neulasta would not receive an approval until the Form 483 issues were resolved. We expect an update on Mylan’s earnings call on Wednesday, 5/9/18. Biocon Form 483: Biocon announced yesterday (5/1/18) that the FDA issued a Form 483 with 7 observations relating to the company’s Bangalore, India site. As a reminder, MYL has a partnership with Biocon to produce biosimilars Neulasta/Herceptin out of the same facility. The TAD for biosimilar Neulasta is on 6/4/18. Biocon noted that the observations were largely procedural and aimed at continuous improvement. Further, the company indicated that it would respond to the FDA “well within” the typical 15 day response period.”

According to TipRanks.com, Vanjani is a 4-star analyst with an average return of 10.7% and a 50.0% success rate. Vanjani covers the Healthcare sector, focusing on stocks such as Sienna Biopharmaceuticals Inc, Revance Therapeutics, and Endo International.
