I. Background
CBER regulates certain biological
products including blood and blood
products, vaccines, and cellular, tissue
and gene therapies. CBER is committed
to advancing the public health through
innovative activities that help ensure
the safety, effectiveness, and timely
delivery of biological products to
patients. To support this primary goal,
CBER has initiated various training and
development programs to promote high
performance of its compliance staff,
regulatory review staff, and other
relevant staff. CBER seeks to
continuously enhance and update
review efficiency and quality, and the
quality of its regulatory efforts and
interactions, by providing CBER staff
with a better understanding of the
biologics industry and its operations.
Further, CBER seeks to improve: (1) Its
understanding of current industry
practices, and regulatory impacts and
needs; and (2) communication between
CBER staff and industry. CBER initiated
its RSVP in 2005, and through these
annual notices, is requesting those firms
that have previously applied and are
still interested in participating, to
reaffirm their interest, as well as
encouraging new interested parties to
apply.
II. RSVP
A. Regulatory Site Visits
In this program, over a period of time
to be agreed upon with the facility,
small groups of CBER staff may observe
operations of biologics establishments,
including, for example, blood and tissue
establishments. The visits may include
packaging facilities, quality control and
pathology/toxicology laboratories, and
regulatory affairs operations. These
visits, or any part of the program, are
not intended as a mechanism to inspect,
assess, judge, or perform a regulatory
function, but are meant to improve
mutual understanding and to provide an
avenue for open dialogue between the
biologics industry and CBER.
B. Site Selection
All travel expenses associated with
the site visits will be the responsibility
of CBER; therefore, selection of potential
facilities will be based on the
coordination of CBER’s priorities for
staff training as well as the limited
available resources for this program. In
addition to logistical and other resource
factors to consider, a key element of site
selection is a successful compliance
record with CBER or another agency for
which we have a memorandum of
understanding.
