CDER has issued a Manual of Policy and Procedures (MAPP), *Transfer of Ownership*, detailing how the *Orange Book* staff in the Office of Generic Drugs (OGD) will process requests submitted by former and new owners of drug applications to transfer drug application ownership. The [MAPP](ttps://www.fda.gov/media/141551/download) says OGD is responsible for updating the *Orange Book* with information relating to drug applications including **(1)** change in ownership submissions; **(2)** corporate merger and acquisition submissions; and **(3)** changes to marketing status.

The MAPP places responsibility for processing changes with OGD project managers and pharmacists.
