PCAC July 23-24 Public Comment Window Set: Written Submissions Close July 9, Oral Presentation Requests Close June 30

The Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee meeting on July 23-24, 2026 — at which seven peptides (BPC-157, KPV, TB-500, MOTs-C on Day 1; Emideltide/DSIP, Semax, Epitalon on Day 2) will be discussed for 503A compounding inclusion — now has firm public-comment deadlines. Written submissions are due July 9, 2026 via regulations.gov; oral presentation requests close June 30, with the FDA allocating presentation slots after review. The PCAC review follows the April 23, 2026 effective date when 12 peptides came off the FDA's Category 2 bulks list. Industry stakeholders, patient groups, and clinicians are organizing through the SSRPi network and the Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding to coordinate testimony. The combined regulatory cycle — PCAC plus the parallel April 30 503B bulks-list proposal closing June 29 — will reshape the compounding-pharmacy economy through 2027 and determine which research peptides remain accessible through licensed channels.

FDA Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee Public Docket FDA-2025-N-6895 Open for Comments Ahead of July 23–24 Peptide Review

The FDA's PCAC public docket FDA-2025-N-6895 is now accepting written comments on the proposed addition of seven peptides to the Section 503A bulk drug substances list ahead of the July 23–24 advisory committee meeting at White Oak. Day 1 will cover BPC-157, KPV, TB-500, and MOTs-C; Day 2 will cover Emideltide (DSIP), Semax, and Epitalon. Comments received by July 9 are guaranteed to be presented to the committee, and the docket closes July 22. The window gives compounders, prescribers, and patient advocates roughly twelve weeks to formally submit clinical evidence, pharmacovigilance data, and access arguments.
