SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The International Cooperation on Harmonization of Technical Requirements for the Registration of Veterinary Medicinal Products (VICH) is a unique project conducted under the auspices of the World Organization for Animal Health that brings together the regulatory authorities of the European Union, Japan, and the United States and representatives from the animal health industry in the three regions. The purpose of VICH is to harmonize technical requirements for veterinary products (both drugs and biologics). pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES ADDRESSES: VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:06 May 17, 2007 Jkt 211001 Regulatory authorities and industry experts from Australia and New Zealand participate in an observer capacity. The World Federation of the Animal Health Industry (COMISA, the Confederation Mondiale de L’Industrie de la Sante Animale) provides the secretarial and administrative support for VICH activities. The United States Government is represented in VICH by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). The FDA provides expertise on veterinary drugs, while APHIS fills a corresponding role for veterinary biological products. As VICH members, APHIS and FDA participate in efforts to enhance harmonization and have expressed their commitment to seeking scientifically based, harmonized technical requirements for the development of veterinary drugs and biological products. One of the goals of harmonization is to identify and reduce the differences in technical requirements for veterinary drugs and biologics among regulatory agencies in different countries. The draft guideline ‘‘Pharmacovigilance of Veterinary Medicinal Products: Controlled Lists of Terms’’ (VICH Topic GL30) has been made available by the VICH Steering Committee for comments by interested parties. The guideline is intended to provide guidance for the development and maintenance of the controlled lists of terms required to complete the controlled data fields contained in adverse event reports concerning the use of marketed veterinary medicinal products. Because the draft guideline applies to some veterinary biological products regulated by APHIS under the Virus-Serum-Toxin Act—particularly with regard to development and maintenance of the controlled lists of terms—we are requesting comments on its provisions so that we may include any relevant public input on the draft in the Agency’s comments to the VICH Steering Committee. The draft guideline reflects current APHIS thinking on the development and maintenance of the controlled lists of terms required to complete the controlled data fields used for the submission and exchange of spontaneous adverse events reports between marketing authorization holders (licensees/permittees) and regulatory authorities concerning the clinical effects of marketed veterinary medicinal products. In accordance with the VICH process, once a final draft of each document has been approved, the guideline will be recommended for adoption by the regulatory bodies of the PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 European Union, Japan, and the United States. As with all VICH documents, each final guideline will not create or confer any rights for or on any person and will not operate to bind APHIS or the public. Further, the VICH guidelines specifically provide for the use of alternative approaches if those approaches satisfy applicable regulatory requirements. Ultimately, APHIS intends to consider the VICH Steering Committee’s final guideline for use by U.S. veterinary biologics licensees, permittees, and applicants. In addition, we may consider using the final guideline as the basis for proposed amendments to the regulations in 9 CFR chapter I, subchapter E (Viruses, Serums, Toxins, and Analogous Products; Organisms and Vectors). Because we anticipate that applicable provisions of the final versions of ‘‘Pharmacovigilance of Veterinary Medicinal Products: Controlled Lists of Terms’’ may be introduced into APHIS’ veterinary biologics regulatory program in the future, we encourage your comments on the draft guideline. The draft guideline may be viewed on the Regulations.gov Web site or in our reading room (see ADDRESSES above for instructions for accessing Regulations.gov and information on the location and hours of the reading room). You may request paper copies of the draft guideline by calling or writing to the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. Authority: 21 U.S.C. 151 et seq.
