FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Peggy Robbins, Office of Management Programs (HFA–250), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301–827–1223. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. ADDRESSES: State Enforcement Notifications—21 CFR 100.2(d) (OMB Control Number 0910–0275)—Extension Section 310(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C. 337(b)) authorizes States to enforce certain sections of the act in their own names, but provides that States must notify FDA before doing so. Section 100.2(d) (21 CFR 100.2(d)) sets forth the information that a State must provide to FDA in a letter of notification when it intends to take enforcement action under the act against a particular food located in the State. The information required under § 100.2(d) will enable FDA to identify the food against which the State intends to take action and advise the State whether Federal action has been taken against it. With certain narrow exceptions, Federal enforcement action precludes State action under the act. In the Federal Register of June 20, 2005 (70 FR 35446), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the information collection provisions. FDA received no comments. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: E:\FR\FM\14SEN1.SGM 14SEN1 54394 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 177 / Wednesday, September 14, 2005 / Notices TABLE 1.—ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN1 No. of Respondents 21 CFR Section 100.2(d) 1 There Annual Frequency per Response 1 Total Annual Responses 1 1 Hours per Response Total Hours 10 10 are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. The reporting burden for § 100.2(d) is insignificant because enforcement notifications are seldom used by States. During the last 3 years, FDA has not received any enforcement notifications. Since the enactment of section 403A(b) of the act (21 U.S.C. 343–1(b)) as part of the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990, FDA has received only a few enforcement notifications. Although FDA believes that the burden will be insignificant, it believes these information collection provisions should be extended to provide for the potential future need of a State government to submit enforcement notifications informing FDA when it intends to take enforcement action under the act against a particular food located in the State.

(NCI) HHS Reference No. E–144–2005/0— Research Tool Licensing Contact: Michelle A. Booden; 301/451–7337; boodenm@mail.nih.gov. The type 1 insulin-like growth factor (IGF) receptor (IGF1R) is over-expressed by many tumors and mediates proliferation, motility, and protection from apoptosis. Agents that inhibit IGF1R expression or function can potentially block tumor growth and metastasis. The present invention relates to the identification of soluble fragments of the IGF1R ectodomain, where these fragments bind IGF-I, IGF-II, or the various other ligands of IFG1R. The identified fragment may be useful for identifying agents that block IGF1R and may act as a strong dominant negative inhibitor of tumor growth by blocking the IGF1R pathway. The invention also encompasses other IGF1R fragments or derivatives of the original fragments, methods of identifying IGF1R fragments or other similar fragments in the IGF1R ectodomain, methods of using said fragments to block binding of ligands, and methods of producing antibodies against the IGF1R fragments. The technology is available for licensing under a biological material license. In addition to licensing, the technology is available for further development through collaborative research opportunities with the inventors. Polymer-Linked Pseudomonas Exotoxin Immunotoxin Ira Pastan (NCI) et al. U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/ 636,007 filed 12 Dec 2004 (HHS Reference No. E–121–2005/0-US–01) Licensing Contact: Jesse Kindra; 301/ 435–5559; kindraj@mail.nih.gov. Molecules based on monoclonal antibodies hold the promise of highly selective therapeutics. However, their efficacy can be limited by poor tissue PO 00000 Frm 00045 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 penetration, rapid renal clearance and an immune response to the antibody. The present technology provides an immunotoxin that is modified to overcome such limitations. The technology relates to polymerconjugated immunotoxins targeted to the mesothelin tumor cell antigen. These polymer-immunotoxin conjugates possess an enhanced therapeutic index and may provide improved methods of treating tumors and cancers expressing the mesothelin antigen. Tumor Suppressor Gene Caliban Mark A. Mortin et al. (NICHD) U.S. Provisional Application filed 06 Jun 2005 (DHHS Reference No. E– 118–2005/0-US–01) Licensing Contact: Jesse S. Kindra; 301/ 435–5559; kindraj@mail.nih.gov. This invention relates to the identification of a tumor suppressor gene named Caliban from Drosophila melanogaster. The inventors have demonstrated that Caliban is very similar to the corresponding human gene and they have shown that the human gene is inactive in human lung cancer cells but active in normal lung cells. For the first time, it has been shown that when full length Caliban is expressed in human lung cancer cells they lose many of their tumorigenic properties. Hence, using gene therapy to replace the inactive gene with full length Caliban may treat cancer. Details of this were published in Bi et al., ‘‘Drosophila caliban, a nuclear export mediator, can function as a tumor suppressor in human lung cancer cells,’’ Oncogene advance online publication, August 15, 2005; doi:10.1038/ sj.onc.1208962. This invention also provides a biomarker assay that can be used to determine if the fly or human tumor suppressor Caliban gene product is functioning in cells. This assay uses a peptide from the fly gene Prospero, named HDA, which when fused to a reporter such as green fluorescent protein, is exported from the nucleus when Caliban is working. In addition to licensing, the technology is available for further development through collaborative research opportunities with the inventors. E:\FR\FM\14SEN1.SGM 14SEN1

Management and Budget (OMB) for review and clearance under the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

DATES: Fax written comments on the collection of information by October 
14, 2005.

ADDRESSES: OMB is still experiencing significant delays in the regular 
mail, including first class and express mail, and messenger deliveries 
are not being accepted. To ensure that comments on the information 
collection are received, OMB recommends that written comments be faxed 
to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, Attn: Fumie 
Yokota, Desk Officer for FDA, FAX: 202-395-6974.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Peggy Robbins, Office of Management 
Programs (HFA-250), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, 
Rockville, MD 20857, 301-827-1223.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has 
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for 
review and clearance.

State Enforcement Notifications--21 CFR 100.2(d) (OMB Control Number 
0910-0275)--Extension

    Section 310(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the 
act) (21 U.S.C. 337(b)) authorizes States to enforce certain sections 
of the act in their own names, but provides that States must notify FDA 
before doing so. Section 100.2(d) (21 CFR 100.2(d)) sets forth the 
information that a State must provide to FDA in a letter of 
notification when it intends to take enforcement action under the act 
against a particular food located in the State. The information 
required under Sec.  100.2(d) will enable FDA to identify the food 
against which the State intends to take action and advise the State 
whether Federal action has been taken against it. With certain narrow 
exceptions, Federal enforcement action precludes State action under the 
act.
    In the Federal Register of June 20, 2005 (70 FR 35446), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the information 
collection provisions. FDA received no comments.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of
  information.

    The reporting burden for Sec.  100.2(d) is insignificant because 
enforcement notifications are seldom used by States. During the last 3 
years, FDA has not received any enforcement notifications. Since the 
enactment of section 403A(b) of the act (21 U.S.C. 343-1(b)) as part of 
the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990, FDA has received only 
a few enforcement notifications. Although FDA believes that the burden 
will be insignificant, it believes these information collection 
provisions should be extended to provide for the potential future need 
of a State government to submit enforcement notifications informing FDA 
when it intends to take enforcement action under the act against a 
particular food located in the State.
