Proposed Project: The Stem Cell
Therapeutic Outcomes Database—
(New)
The Stem Cell Therapeutic and
Research Act of 2005 establishes the
C.W. Bill Young Cell Transplantation
Program and provides for the collection
and maintenance of human blood stem
cells for the treatment of patients and
for research. The Health Resources and
Services Administration’s (HRSA),
Healthcare Systems Bureau (HSB), is
establishing the Stem Cell Therapeutic
Outcomes Database as one component
of the C.W. Bill Young Cell
Transplantation Program. Operation of
this database necessitates certain
reporting requirements in order to
perform the functions related to
hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
under contract to HHS. The Act requires
the Secretary to contract for the
collection and maintenance of
information related to patients who
have received stem cell therapeutic
products and to do so using a
standardized, electronic format. Data
will be collected from transplant centers
in a manner similar to the data
Estimated
number of
respondents
Form
Responses
per
respondent
collection activities historically
conducted by the Medical College of
Wisconsin’s Center for International
Blood and Marrow Transplant Research
(CIBMTR) and will be used for ongoing
analysis of transplant outcomes. HRSA
will use the information in order to
carry out its statutory responsibilities.
Information is needed to monitor the
clinical status of transplantation, and to
provide the Secretary with an annual
report of transplant center-specific
survival data.

The Pre-TED, Product Form, 100-Day Post-TED, 6-Month Post-TED, and 12-Month Post-TED will be collected on all patients during their first
year of transplant. In subsequent years, patient outcomes will be reported on the Annual Post-TED form. There will be a gradual increase in the
cumulative reporting burden over time commensurate with the number of survivors for which transplant centers must submit an Annual PostTED.
Written comments and
recommendations concerning the
proposed information collection should
be sent within 30 days of this notice to:
Karen Matsuoka, Human Resources and
Housing Branch, Office of Management
and Budget, New Executive Office

Jkt 211001
Access Points in High Poverty
Counties’’ funding opportunity [issued
on Grants.gov March 14, 2007] as they
relate to awards made under the HRSA–
07–067 ‘‘New Access Points’’ funding
opportunity for the President’s first
Health Centers Initiative [issued on
Grants.gov October 6, 2006].
In making award decisions for fiscal
year (FY) 2007, HRSA will now
consider granting the same organization
a new access point award under HRSA–
07–067 and HRSA–07–069. HRSA will
consider more than one FY 2007 new
access point award to an organization if,
and only if each application submitted
(by the same organization for the two
different funding opportunities)
proposes a separate and distinct project
to serve different counties. That is, there
must be no overlap or duplication of
service area, target population, or sites.
(Under previous HRSA policy, if an
organization receives a grant award in
FY 2007 under the first opportunity,
HRSA–07–067, it could not be awarded
funds in FY 2007 under HRSA–07–069).
Applicants for HRSA–07–069 should
also be aware that each new access
point application must be complete and
must be able to stand alone.
The changes announced in this
Federal Register Notice do not impact
any HRSA policy for eligibility under
the HRSA–07–069. Organizations
PO 00000
Frm 00067
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
continue to be eligible to submit one
application under HRSA–07–069,
irrespective of whether they applied
under HRSA–07–067 or not.
Additionally, all other awarding factors
detailed in HRSA–07–069 remain the
same.
