VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:19 Mar 12, 2008 Jkt 214001 ACTION: I. Background Notice. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry entitled ‘‘Hypertension Indication: Drug Labeling for Cardiovascular Outcome Claims.’’ This draft guidance is intended to assist applicants in developing labeling for cardiovascular outcome claims for drugs that are indicated to treat hypertension. Because blood pressure control is well established as beneficial in preventing serious cardiovascular events, FDA believes that the appropriate use of these drugs can be encouraged by making the connection between lower blood pressure and improved cardiovascular outcomes more explicit in labeling. This draft guidance is intended to recommend standard labeling for antihypertensive drugs except where differences are clearly supported by clinical data. DATES: Although you can comment on any guidance at any time (see 21 CFR 10.115(g)(5)), to ensure that the agency considers your comment on this draft guidance before it begins work on the final version of the guidance, submit written or electronic comments on the draft guidance byMay 12, 2008. ADDRESSES: Submit written requests for single copies of the draft guidance to the Division of Drug Information, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 51, rm. 2201, Silver Spring, MD 20993. Send one selfaddressed adhesive label to assist that office in processing your requests. Submit written comments on the draft guidance to the Division of Dockets Management (HFA–305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852. Submit electronic comments to https:// www.regulations.gov. See the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for electronic access to the draft guidance document. SUMMARY: Devi Kozeli, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 22, rm. 4183, Silver Spring, MD 20993–0002, 301–796–1128. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: PO 00000 Frm 00023 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 FDA is announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry entitled ‘‘Hypertension Indication: Drug Labeling for Cardiovascular Outcome Claims.’’ On June 15, 2005, the Cardiovascular and Renal Drugs Advisory Committee met in open public session to discuss class labeling for cardiovascular outcome claims for drugs that are indicated to treat hypertension. With few exceptions, current labeling for antihypertensive drug products only includes the information that these drugs are indicated to reduce blood pressure; the labeling does not include information on the clinical benefits related to cardiovascular outcomes expected from such blood pressure reduction. However, blood pressure control is well established as beneficial in preventing serious cardiovascular events, and inadequate treatment of hypertension is acknowledged as a significant public health problem. The committee voiced a broad consensus in favor of labeling changes to describe briefly the clinical benefits related to cardiovascular outcomes expected from lowering blood pressure with any antihypertensive drug. The labeling proposed in this draft guidance is consistent with the advisory committee’s recommendations. This draft guidance is being made available to afford the public the opportunity to comment on both the intent of the labeling revisions and the specific proposed language. This draft guidance is intended to recommend standard labeling for antihypertensive drugs except where differences are clearly supported by clinical data. After this guidance has been finalized, applicants will be encouraged to submit labeling supplements containing the new language. This draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA’s good guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when finalized, will represent the agency’s current thinking on labeling for cardiovascular outcome claims for drugs indicated to treat hypertension. It does not create or confer any rights for or on any person and does not operate to bind FDA or the public. An alternative approach may be used if such approach satisfies the E:\FR\FM\13MRN1.SGM 13MRN1
