Request for public comment on

ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Secretary’s Advisory
Committee on Genetics, Health, and
Society (SACGHS) is requesting public
comment on a draft report on the
oversight of genetic testing.
DATES: Written or electronic comments
should be submitted between November
5, 2007 and December 21, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Comments should be
e-mailed to SACGHS in care of Cathy
Fomous, PhD, at cfomous@od.nih.gov.
Comments can also be mailed or faxed
to Dr. Fomous’s attention at the NIH
Office of Biotechnology Activities, 6705
Rockledge Drive, Suite 700, Bethesda,
MD, 20892 or fax number 301–496–

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Biotechnology Activities, at
cfomous@od.nih.gov or 6705 Rockledge
Drive, Suite 700, Bethesda, MD 20892,
301–496–9838.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) established SACGHS to
serve as a public forum for deliberations
on the broad range of policy issues
raised by the development and use of
genetic technologies and, as warranted,
to provide advice on these issues. For
more information about the Committee,
please visit the Web site: https://
www4.od.nih.gov/oba/sacghs.htm.
In 2004, SACGHS recognized that
oversight of genetic testing was a highpriority issue that required ongoing
monitoring. In 2006, SACGHS began an
in-depth fact-finding process on the
oversight roles of Federal, State, and
VerDate Aug<31>2005

private sector entities. In March 2007,
the Office of the Secretary of HHS
outlined a specific charge to SACGHS to
focus the Committee’s inquiry. The
charge reads as follows:
Undertake the development of a
comprehensive map of the steps needed for
evidence development and oversight for
genetic and genomic tests, with improvement
of health quality as the primary goal.
Consider and address the following
questions:
• What evidence of harm exists regarding
genetic tests? Is that harm attributable to
analytic validity, clinical validity, or clinical
utility of the tests? If evidence does not exist,
what threats are not currently being
addressed? What public health benefits are
not accruing as quickly as they might?
• What distinguishes genetic tests from
other laboratory tests for oversight purposes?
• What are the existing pathways that
examine the analytic validity, clinical
validity, and clinical utility of genetic tests?
Consider the use of case studies.
• What organizations are currently
involved with each of these aspects, and
what are they doing to address these issues?
Who should be responsible for each of these
aspects?
• What resources (e.g., standards reagents/
materials) are needed to develop proficiency
testing kits or protocols for genetic tests?
What is currently available in terms of
proficiency testing kits or protocols for
genetic tests? What information is provided
by proficiency testing? Is the current level of
proficiency testing for genetic tests adequate
and are the results of such laboratory
performance assessments sufficiently
transparent?
• What are the potential pathways to
communicate clear information to guide test
and treatment selection by the provider?
• What new approaches or models should
be considered for private and public-private
sector engagement in demonstrating clinical
validity and clinical utility for developing
effectiveness measures of genetic tests in
clinical practice?
• Would additional or revised Government
oversight add value for patients, and if so,
how and where?
SACGHS organized a task force to
explore the questions outlined in the
Secretary’s charge and gather facts and
perspectives on how best to address
them. With the help of the task force,
SACGHS drafted a report that addresses
the issues and offers a number of
recommendations for enhancing the
oversight of genetic testing in the U.S.
A copy of the draft report, U.S. System
of Oversight of Genetic Testing: A
Response to the Charge of the Secretary
of HHS, will be available from
November 5, 2007 to December 21, 2007
at https://www4.od.nih.gov/oba/sacghs/

electronic copy also can be obtained

Activities at 301–496–9838 or by

e-mailing Dr. Fomous at
cfomous@od.nih.gov.
SACGHS would welcome comments
on any aspect of the report. In
particular, SACGHS would appreciate
input on whether the draft report: (1)
Fully responds to questions posed by
the HHS Secretary; (2) proposes
appropriate remedies to close gaps in
the current system; and (3) adequately
anticipates future developments in the
field of genetics/genomics that may bear
on the oversight of genetic testing. In
addition to submitting written
comments, the public will have an
opportunity at the SACGHS meeting on
November 19–20, 2007 to provide
testimony on this topic. The meeting is
being held at the Ronald Reagan
Building, Washington, DC (see https://
www4.od.nih.gov/oba/SACGHS/
SACGhsMTGIndex.HTM for a meeting
agenda). All comments received by
December 21, 2007 will be considered
by SACGHS in preparing its final draft
report. Public comments will be
available for public inspection at the
NIH Office of Biotechnology Activities
Monday through Friday between the
hours of 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m.
Dated: October 29, 2007.
