FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Jonna Capezzuto, Office of the Chief
Information Officer (HFA–250), Food
and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers
Lane, Rockville, MD 20857. 301–827–
4659.
FDA has
requested emergency processing of this
proposed collection of information
under section 3507(j) of the PRA (44
U.S.C. 3507(j) and 5 CFR 1320.13). The
emergency processing was requested in
order to comply with the provisions of
Title VIII of the Food and Drug
Administration Amendments Act of
2007 (FDAAA) (Public Law 110–85),
which require this certification to be
submitted to FDA beginning no later
than December 26, 2007. This
information will be needed immediately
to implement these provisions of
FDAAA, and it is essential to the
agency’s mission of protecting and
promoting the public health. Since the
statutory deadline for collecting the
information is December 26, 2007, the
lack of a form would result in confusion
for the sponsors/applicants as the
information necessary for FDA to carry
out its future statutory responsibilities
would not be obvious without the form.
While some sponsors/applicants may
submit information, it most likely
would neither be complete nor provided
in a systematic fashion so that it can be
more easily retrieved.
With respect to the following
collection of information, FDA invites
comments on these topics: (1) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of FDA’s functions, including whether
the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques,
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

and 0910–0231 (expires November 30,
2010), respectively.
Title VIII of FDAAA amended the
PHS Act by adding section 402(j) (42
U.S.C. 282(j)). The new provisions
require additional information to be
submitted to the clinical trials data bank
(ClinicalTrials.gov) previously
established by the National Institutes of
Health/National Library of Medicine,
including expanded information on
clinical trials and information on the
results of clinical trials. The provisions
include new responsibilities for FDA as
well as several amendments to the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
(FD&C Act).
One new provision, section
402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, requires that
a certification accompany human drug,
biological, and device product
submissions made to FDA. Specifically,
at the time of submission of an
application under sections 505, 515, or
520(m) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 354,
360e, or 360j(m)), or under section 351
of the PHS Act (21 U.S.C. 262), or
submission of a report under section
510(k) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C.
360(k)), such application or submission
must be accompanied by a certification
that all applicable requirements of
section 402(j) of the PHS Act have been
met. Where available, such certification
must include the appropriate National
Clinical Trial (NCT) numbers.
The proposed collection of
information is necessary to satisfy the
above statutory requirement.
The importance of obtaining these
data relates to adherence to the legal
requirements for submissions to the
clinical trials registry and results data
bank and ensuring that individuals and
organizations submitting applications or
reports to FDA under the listed
provisions of the FD&C Act or the PHS
Act adhere to the appropriate legal and
regulatory requirements for certifying to
having complied with those
requirements. The failure to submit the
certification required by section
402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, and the
knowing submission of a false
certification are both prohibited acts
under section 301 of the FD&C Act (21
U.S.C. 331). Violations are subject to
civil money penalties.

Investigational New Drug Applications
FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and
Research (CDER) received 1,837
investigational new drug applications
(INDs) and 24,581 new IND
amendments in fiscal year (FY) 2004.
CDER anticipates that IND and
amendment submission rates will
remain at or near this level in the near
future.
FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation
and Research (CBER) received 227 new
INDs and 6,689 new IND amendments
in FY 2004. CBER anticipates that IND
and amendment submission rates will
remain at or near this level in the near
future.
The estimated total number of
submissions (new INDs and new
submissions) subject to mandatory
certification requirements under section
402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act is 26,418 for
CDER plus 6,916 for CBER, or 33,334
submissions per year. The minutes per
response is the estimated number of
minutes that a respondent would spend
preparing the information to be
submitted to FDA under section
402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, including
the time it takes to type the necessary
information.
Based on its experience reviewing
INDs and consideration of the
previously mentioned information, FDA
estimated that approximately 15.0
minutes on average would be needed
per response for certifications which
accompany IND applications and
submissions. It is assumed that most
submissions to investigational
applications will reference only a few
protocols with NCT numbers prior to
FDA submission. It is also assumed that
the sponsor/applicant/submitter has
electronic capabilities allowing them to
retrieve the information necessary to
complete the form in an efficient
manner.
Marketing Applications/Submissions
CDER and CBER received 214 new
drug applications (NDA)/biologics
license applications (BLA)/
resubmissions and 8,535 NDA/BLA
amendments in FY 2004. CDER and
CBER received 259 efficacy
supplements/resubmissions to
previously approved NDAs/BLAs, 2,500
manufacturing submissions, and 1,273
labeling submissions in FY 2004. CDER
and CBER anticipate that new drug/
biologic and efficacy supplement
submission rates will remain at or near
this level in the near future.
FDA’s Center for Devices and
Radiological Health (CDRH) received 51
new premarket approvals (PMA), 3,635
510(k) submissions, and 9 humanitarian
device exemptions (HDE) or 3,695 new
applications in FY 2004. CDRH received
2,267 PMA/510(k)/HDE amendments in
FY 2004. CDRH received 2,705 PMA/
510(k)/HDE supplements in FY 2004.
CDRH anticipates that application,
amendment, and supplement rates will
remain at or near this level in the near
future.
The estimated total number of new
submissions (new marketing
applications, amendments, and
supplements) subject to the mandatory
certification requirements under section
402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act is 12,781 for
CDER and CBER plus 8,667 for CDRH or
21,448 new submissions per year.
The total burden estimate includes all
submissions for possible inclusion in
the clinical trials data bank (results).
The minutes per response is the
estimated number of hours that a
respondent would spend preparing the
information to be submitted to FDA
under section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS
Act, including the time it takes to type
the necessary information and compile
a list of relevant NCT numbers.
Based on its experience reviewing
NDAs, BLAs, PMAs, HDEs, and 510(k)s,
and consideration of the previously
mentioned information, FDA estimated
that approximately 45.0 minutes on
average would be needed per response
for certifications which accompany
NDA, BLA, PMA, HDE, and 510(k)
applications and submissions. It is
assumed that the sponsor/applicant/
submitter has electronic capabilities
allowing them to retrieve the
information necessary to complete the
form in an efficient manner.
Table 1 of this document provides an
estimate of the annual reporting burden
for the submission of information to
satisfy the requirements of section

Agency Information Collection
Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
Periodically, the Health Resources
and Services Administration (HRSA)
publishes abstracts of information
collection requests under review by the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB), in compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of
the clearance requests submitted to
OMB for review, call the HRSA Reports
Clearance Office on (301) 443–1129.
The following request has been
submitted to OMB for review under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995:
Proposed Project: Ryan White HIV/
AIDS Program Annual Data Report:
Data Report Form: (OMB No. 0915–
0253)—Revision
The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program
Annual Data Report, formerly called the
CARE Act Data Report (CADR), was first
implemented in 2002 by HRSA’s HIV/
AIDS Bureau. It has undergone revisions
to incorporate the legislative changes
that occurred in 2006. Grantees and
their subcontracted service providers
who are funded under Parts A, B, C, and
D of Title XXVI of the Public Health
Service Act, as amended by the Ryan
White HIV/AIDS Treatment
Modernization Act of 2006, (Ryan White
HIV/AIDS Program), fill out the report.
All Parts of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS
Program specify HRSA’s responsibilities
in the administration of grant funds, the
allocation of funds, the evaluation of
programs for the population served, and
the improvement of the quantity and
quality of care. Accurate records of the
providers receiving Ryan White HIV/
AIDS Program Funding, the services
provided, and the clients served,
continue to be critical to the
implementation of the legislation and
thus are necessary for HRSA to fulfill its
responsibilities. Ryan White HIV/AIDS

Program Grantees are required to report
aggregate data to HRSA annually. The
Data Report form is filled out by
grantees and their subcontracted service
providers. The report has seven
different sections containing
demographic information about the
service providers, as well as the clients
served, information about the type of
core and support services provided, as
well as the number of clients served,
information about counseling and
testing services, clinical information
about the clients served, demographic
tables for Parts C and D, and
information about the Health Insurance
Program. The primary purposes of the
Data Report are to: (1) Characterize the
organizations where clients receive
services; (2) provide information on the
number and characteristics of clients
who receive Ryan White HIV/AIDS
Program Services; and (3) enable HAB to
describe the type and amount of
services a client receives. In addition to
meeting the goal of accountability to the
Congress, clients, advocacy groups, and
the general public, information
collected on the Data Report is critical
for HRSA, State, and local grantees, and
individual providers to assess the status
of existing HIV-related service delivery
systems.

Information Officer (HFA-250), Food and Drug Administration, 5600
Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857. 301-827-4659.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA has requested emergency processing of
this proposed collection of information under section 3507(j) of the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3507(j) and 5 CFR 1320.13). The emergency processing was
requested in order to comply with the provisions of Title VIII of the
Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007 (FDAAA) (Public Law
110-85), which require this certification to be submitted to FDA
beginning no later than December 26, 2007. This information will be
needed immediately to implement these provisions of FDAAA, and it is
essential to the agency's mission of protecting and promoting the
public health. Since the statutory deadline for collecting the
information is December 26, 2007, the lack of a form would result in
confusion for the sponsors/applicants as the information necessary for
FDA to carry out its future statutory responsibilities would not be
obvious without the form. While some sponsors/applicants may submit
information, it most likely would neither be complete nor provided in a
systematic fashion so that it can be more easily retrieved.
With respect to the following collection of information, FDA
invites comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA's
functions, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques, when
appropriate, and other forms of information technology.
Certification to Accompany Drug, Biological Product, and Device
Applications or Submissions
The information required under section 402(j)(5)(B) of the Public
Health Service Act (PHS Act) (42 U.S.C. 282(j)(5)(B)), will be
submitted in the form of a certification with applications and
submissions currently submitted to FDA under part 312 (21 CFR part 312)
and 21 CFR part 314 (human drugs) approved under OMB control numbers
0910-0014 (expires May 31, 2009) and 0910-0001 (expires May 31, 2008),
respectively, part 312 and 21 CFR part 601 (biological products)
approved under OMB control numbers 0910-0014 and 0910-0338 (expires
June 30, 2010) and 21 CFR parts 807 and 814 (devices) approved under
OMB control numbers 0910-0120 (expires August 31, 2010) and 0910-0231
(expires November 30, 2010), respectively.
Title VIII of FDAAA amended the PHS Act by adding section 402(j)
(42 U.S.C. 282(j)). The new provisions require additional information
to be submitted to the clinical trials data bank (ClinicalTrials.gov)
previously established by the National Institutes of Health/National
Library of Medicine, including expanded information on clinical trials
and information on the results of clinical trials. The provisions
include new responsibilities for FDA as well as several amendments to
the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act).
One new provision, section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, requires
that a certification accompany human drug, biological, and device
product submissions made to FDA. Specifically, at the time of
submission of an application under sections 505, 515, or 520(m) of the
FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 354, 360e, or 360j(m)), or under section 351 of the
PHS Act (21 U.S.C. 262), or submission of a report under section 510(k)
of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360(k)), such application or submission must
be accompanied by a certification that all applicable requirements of
section 402(j) of the PHS Act have been met. Where available, such
certification must include the appropriate National Clinical Trial
(NCT) numbers.
The proposed collection of information is necessary to satisfy the
above statutory requirement.
The importance of obtaining these data relates to adherence to the
legal requirements for submissions to the clinical trials registry and
results data bank and ensuring that individuals and organizations
submitting applications or reports to FDA under the listed provisions
of the FD&C Act or the PHS Act adhere to the appropriate legal and
regulatory requirements for certifying to having complied with those
requirements. The failure to submit the certification required by
section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, and the knowing submission of a
false certification are both prohibited acts under section 301 of the
FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 331). Violations are subject to civil money
penalties.

FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) received 1,837
investigational new drug applications (INDs) and 24,581 new IND
amendments in fiscal year (FY) 2004. CDER anticipates that IND and

FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) received
227 new INDs and 6,689 new IND amendments in FY 2004. CBER anticipates
that IND and amendment submission rates will remain at or near this
level in the near future.
The estimated total number of submissions (new INDs and new
submissions) subject to mandatory certification requirements under
section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act is 26,418 for CDER plus 6,916 for
CBER, or 33,334 submissions per year. The minutes per response is the
estimated number of minutes that a respondent would spend preparing the
information to be submitted to FDA under section 402(j)(5)(B) of the
PHS Act, including the time it takes to type the necessary information.
Based on its experience reviewing INDs and consideration of the

minutes on average would be needed per response for certifications
which accompany IND applications and submissions. It is assumed that
most submissions to investigational applications will reference only a
few protocols with NCT numbers prior to FDA submission. It is also
assumed that the sponsor/applicant/submitter has electronic
capabilities allowing them to retrieve the information necessary to
complete the form in an efficient manner.
Marketing Applications/Submissions
CDER and CBER received 214 new drug applications (NDA)/biologics
license applications (BLA)/resubmissions and 8,535 NDA/BLA amendments
in FY 2004. CDER and CBER received 259 efficacy supplements/
resubmissions to previously approved NDAs/BLAs, 2,500 manufacturing
submissions, and 1,273 labeling submissions in FY 2004. CDER and CBER
anticipate that new drug/biologic and efficacy supplement submission
rates will remain at or near this level in the near future.
FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) received 51
new premarket approvals (PMA), 3,635 510(k) submissions, and 9
humanitarian device exemptions (HDE) or 3,695 new applications in FY
2004. CDRH received 2,267 PMA/510(k)/HDE amendments in FY 2004. CDRH
received 2,705 PMA/510(k)/HDE supplements in FY 2004. CDRH anticipates
that application, amendment, and supplement rates will remain at or
near this level in the near future.
The estimated total number of new submissions (new marketing
applications, amendments, and supplements) subject to the mandatory
certification requirements under section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act is
12,781 for CDER and CBER plus 8,667 for CDRH or 21,448 new submissions
per year.
The total burden estimate includes all submissions for possible
inclusion in the clinical trials data bank (results). The minutes per
response is the estimated number of hours that a respondent would spend
preparing the information to be submitted to FDA under section
402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, including the time it takes to type the
necessary information and compile a list of relevant NCT numbers.
Based on its experience reviewing NDAs, BLAs, PMAs, HDEs, and
510(k)s, and consideration of the previously mentioned information, FDA
estimated that approximately 45.0 minutes on average would be needed
per response for certifications which accompany NDA, BLA, PMA, HDE, and
510(k) applications and submissions. It is assumed that the sponsor/
applicant/submitter has electronic capabilities allowing them to
retrieve the information necessary to complete the form in an efficient
manner.
Table 1 of this document provides an estimate of the annual
reporting burden for the submission of information to satisfy the
requirements of section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act.

We believe the estimate, 24,419 hours per year, accurately reflects
the burden. We recognize that individuals or entities less familiar
with FDA forms and the Clinical Trials Data Bank may require greater
than 15 and 45 minutes (depending on the type of application/
submission) per response.
