Participation in this third-party review program by accredited persons is entirely voluntary. A third party wishing to participate will submit a request for accreditation to FDA. Accredited third-party reviewers have the ability to review a manufacturer’s 510(k) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360) submission for selected devices. After reviewing a submission, the reviewer will forward a copy of the 510(k) submission, along with the reviewer’s documented review and recommendation to FDA. Third-party reviewers should maintain records of their 510(k) reviews and a copy of the 510(k) for a reasonable period of time, usually a period of 3 years. This information collection will allow FDA to continue to implement the accredited person review program established by FDAMA and improve the efficiency of 510(k) review for low- to moderate-risk devices. Respondents to this information collection are businesses or other forprofit organizations. I. Reporting 510(k) Reviews Conducted by Accredited Third Parties According to FDA’s data in 2009, the Agency has experienced that the number of 510(k)s submitted for thirdparty review is approximately 260 annually, which is 26 annual reviews per each of the 10 accredited reviewers.

ACTION: Notice. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has determined that TRANDATE (labetalol hydrochloride) tablets, 300 milligrams (mg) and 400 mg, were not withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination means that FDA will not begin procedures to withdraw approval of abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) that refer to these drug products, and it will allow FDA to continue to approve ANDAs that refer to the products as long as the ANDAs meet relevant legal and regulatory requirements.

L. 98–417) (the 1984 amendments), which authorized the approval of duplicate versions of drug products approved under an ANDA procedure. ANDA applicants must, with certain exceptions, show that the drug for which they are seeking approval contains the same active ingredient in the same strength and dosage form as the ‘‘listed drug,’’ which is a version of the drug that was previously approved. ANDA applicants do not have to repeat the extensive clinical testing otherwise necessary to gain approval of a new drug application (NDA). The only clinical data required in an ANDA are data to show that the drug that is the subject of the ANDA is bioequivalent to the listed drug. The 1984 amendments include what is now section 505(j)(7) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 355(j)(7)), which requires FDA to publish a list of all approved drugs. FDA publishes this list as part of the ‘‘Approved Drug Products With Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations,’’ which is known generally as the ‘‘Orange Book.’’ Under FDA regulations, drugs are removed from the list if the Agency withdraws or suspends approval of the drug’s NDA or ANDA for reasons of safety or effectiveness or if FDA determines that the listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness (§ 314.162 (21 CFR 314.162)). Under § 314.161(a)(1) (21 CFR 314.161(a)(1)), the Agency must determine whether a listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness before an ANDA that refers to that listed drug may be approved. FDA may not approve an ANDA that does not refer to a listed drug. Under § 314.161(a)(2), FDA must determine whether a listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of PO 00000 Frm 00058 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 safety or effectiveness whenever a listed drug is voluntarily withdrawn from sale and ANDAs that refer to the listed drug have been approved. Section 314.161(d) provides that if FDA determines that a listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness, the Agency will initiate proceedings that could result in the withdrawal of approval of the ANDAs that refer to the listed drug. TRANDATE (labetalol hydrochloride) tablets, 300 mg and 400 mg, are the subject of NDA 18–716, held by Prometheus Laboratories, Inc., and initially approved on August 1, 1984. TRANDATE is indicated for the management of hypertension. TRANDATE (labetalol hydrochloride) tablets, 300 mg and 400 mg, are currently listed in the ‘‘Discontinued Drug Product List’’ section of the Orange Book. TRANDATE (labetalol hydrochloride) tablets, 400 mg, have never been marketed. In previous instances (see, e.g., 72 FR 9763, March 5, 2007; 61 FR 25497, May 21, 1996), the Agency has determined that, for purposes of §§ 314.161 and 314.162, never marketing an approved drug product is equivalent to withdrawing the drug from sale. JRRapoza Associates, Inc., submitted a citizen petition dated June 16, 2010 (Docket No. FDA–2010–P–0326), under 21 CFR 10.30, requesting that the Agency determine whether TRANDATE (labetalol hydrochloride) tablets, 300 mg, were withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. Although the citizen petition did not address the 400 mg strength, on our own initiative, we have also determined whether that strength was withdrawn for safety or effectiveness reasons. After considering the citizen petition and reviewing Agency records, FDA has determined under § 314.161 that E:\FR\FM\28DEN1.SGM 28DEN1
