Natco Pharma has received final approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for abbreviated new drug applications (ANDA) for two products, including an anti-cancer drug for which the company and its marketing partner had settled a litigation with Celgene.

Along with marketing partner Arrow International, which is a U.S. affiliate of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, the company had previously settled the Paragraph IV litigation, related to the product, with Celgene (now part of Bristol-Myers Squibb). Celgene sells the product under the brand-name Revlimid.
