I am a very happy visitor of your site. You have one of the most refined calendars out there, and i’m grateful of the hard work you do. I’d love to contribute to you if you have a paypal or another link. Also, do you have a google calendar, or a RSS feed for the calendar available?
Thanks for the feedback Daniel. Donations are most appreciated. As luck would have it I have a DONATE button on all pages except this page! You’ll find it as a green button. All additions to the calendar are noted in the title when I post an article and there is a RSS feed available. However, I haven’t got one set up just for the calendar. If you’re on twitter I also tweet out new PDUFA dates. Unfortunately no google calendar.
Really appreciate the hard work in accumulating the details and arranging in orderly fashion.
Not a problem Nilesh. It certainly is a busy time with PDUFA dates and AdCom meetings!
Hi. there are some PDUFA dates in August that are missing from the calendar.
Thanks. Which companies in particular are missing?
Sorry, only one – PDUFA set for 27 August 2012 for Gilead’s Quad HIV pill.
Thanks for the great job.
Thanks Ben. Done. I generally only keep an eye on stocks sub $25, hence the reason for GILD not being on the calendar. Nothing against large-cap companies, but I have to draw the line somewhere to manage my workload…but of course if I hear of a PDUFA date from a reader that I haven’t listed then I will most certainly add it to the calendar!
The Smaller caps have higher returns. More shares for your money.
why do you delete old events?
Hi Leo. The PDUFA calendar is set up so that all PDUFA/Advisory Committee dates are AUTOMATICALLY entered from information that I manually enter into the FDA Calendar. I made the decision to delete events from the FDA Calendar hoping to make it easier for investors to determine which events/catalysts were yet to occur and the FDA Calendar would no doubt become too full of unwanted information. This was primarily aimed at companies with upcoming clinical data releases or trial initiations. The FDA Calendar is primarily sorted by date with upcoming events at the top of the calendar to make it easier for investors to use. The downside to this is that past events are also removed from the PDUFA Calendar. In the previous version of the website (up until Dec ’11) previous PDUFA events were kept in the PDUFA Calendar, which was back then manually maintained. I’d like to keep the “automatic” updating feature of the PDUFA Calendar as it saves me much needed time, rather than “manually” updating it. I’m not sure if there’s a way around it but will investigate further.
For your information, past PDUFA results are included in the Clinical Database.
you are missing May 29th Cipher Pharms (DND.to) PDUFA date
Thanks very much, Pat. Added.
