The recent Supreme Court decisions of SEC v. Jarkesy[1] and Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo[2] have the potential to meaningfully impact the implementation and enforcement of the Drug Supply Chain Security Act[3] (“DSCSA”) as industry transitions away from the “stabilization period” ending on November 27, 2024.  The DSCSA statute contemplated that the Enhanced Drug Distribution Security system (“EDDS”) was to be effective November 27, 2023.[4]  Recognizing that many Trading Partners were not yet ready to fully comply with the November 27, 2023 deadline, in August 2023, the FDA issued a compliance policy guidance document with regard to EDDS.[5]  This guidance document provided Trading Partners with a one-year “stabilization period”, through November 27, 2024, during which the FDA would not enforce the statutory EDDS requirements.[6] The stabilization period was implemented to avoid supply chain disruption and to ensure continued patient access to prescription drug products, while Trading Partners continue to work towards compliance with the EDDS requirements.

As we move from the “stabilization period” to perhaps a period of greater enforcement, each of these decisions favor the potential positions of regulated trading partners over the FDA in application to the DSCSA.
