in the next 3 years. However, to avoid
counting this burden as zero, FDA has
estimated the burden at one respondent
making one submission a year for a total
of one annual submission.
The hours per response values were
estimated as follows: First, we assumed
that the information requested in the
guidance is readily available to the
submitter. We expect that the submitter
will need to gather information from
appropriate persons in the submitter’s
company and to prepare this
information for submission to FDA. The
submitter will almost always merely
need to copy existing documentation.
We believe that this effort should take
no longer than 3 hours per submission.

are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.
In determining the estimated annual
recordkeeping burden, FDA estimated
that at least 90 percent of firms maintain
documentation, such as packing codes,
batch records, and inventory records, as
part of their basic food production or
import operations. Therefore, the
recordkeeping burden was calculated as
the time required for the 10 percent of
firms that may not be currently
maintaining this documentation to
develop and maintain documentation,
such as batch records and inventory
records. In previous information
collection requests, this recordkeeping
burden was estimated to be 16 hours per
record. FDA has retrained its prior
estimate of 16 hours per record for the
recordkeeping burden. As shown in
table 1 of this document, FDA estimates
that one respondent will make one
submission per year. Although FDA
estimates that only 1 out of 10 firms will
not be currently maintaining the
necessary documentation, to avoid
counting the recordkeeping burden for
the 1 submission per year as 1/10 of a
recordkeeper, FDA estimates that 1
recordkeeper will take 16 hours to
develop and maintain documentation
recommended by the guidance.

collection of information to OMB for

Food and Drug Administration
Adverse Experience Reporting for
Licensed Biological Products; and
General Records—(OMB Control
Number 0910–0308)—Extension
Under the Public Health Service Act
(42 U.S.C. 262), FDA is required to
ensure the marketing of only those
biological products which are safe and
effective. FDA must, therefore, be
informed of all adverse experiences
occasioned by the use of licensed
biological products. FDA issued the
adverse experience reporting (AER)
requirements in part 600 (21 CFR part
600) to enable FDA to take actions
necessary for the protection of the
public health in response to reports of
adverse experiences related to licensed
biological products. The primary
purpose of FDA’s AER system is to flag
potentially serious safety problems with
licensed biological products, focusing
especially on newly licensed products.
Although premarket testing discloses a
general safety profile of a biological
product’s comparatively common
adverse effects, the larger and more
diverse patient populations exposed to
the licensed biological product provides
the opportunity to collect information
on rare, latent, and long-term effects.
Reports are obtained from a variety of
sources, including patients, physicians,
foreign regulatory agencies, and clinical
investigators. Information derived from
the AER system contributes directly to
increased public health protection
because such information enables FDA
to recommend important changes to the
product’s labeling (such as adding a
new warning), to initiate removal of a
biological product from the market
when necessary, and to assure the
manufacturer has taken adequate
corrective action if necessary.
The regulation in § 600.80(c)(1)
requires licensed manufacturers to
report each adverse experience that is
both serious and unexpected, whether

foreign or domestic, as soon as possible
but in no case later than 15-calendar
days of initial receipt of the information
by the licensed manufacturer. These are
known as postmarketing 15-day Alert
reports. Section 600.80(c)(1) also
requires licensed manufacturers to
submit any followup reports within 15calendar days of receipt of new
information or as requested by FDA.
Section 600.80(e) requires licensed
manufacturers to submit a 15-day Alert
report for an adverse experience
obtained from a postmarketing clinical
study only if there is a reasonable
possibility that the product caused the
adverse experience. Section 600.80(c)(2)
requires licensed manufacturers to
report each adverse experience not
reported in a postmarketing 15-day
Alert report at quarterly intervals, for 3
years from the date of issuance of the
biologics license, and then at annual
intervals. The majority of these periodic
reports will be submitted annually
because a large percentage of currently
licensed biological products have been
licensed longer than 3 years. Section
600.80(i) requires licensed
manufacturers to maintain for a period
of 10 years records of all adverse
experiences known to the licensed
manufacturer, including raw data and
any correspondence relating to the
adverse experiences. Section 600.81
requires licensed manufacturers to
submit, at an interval of every 6 months,
information about the quantity of the
product distributed under the biologics
license, including the quantity
distributed to distributors. These
semiannual distribution reports provide
FDA with important information about
products distributed under biologics
licenses, including the quantity, certain
lot numbers, labeled date of expiration,
number of dosage units, and date of
release. Under § 600.90, a licensed
manufacturer may submit a waiver
request for any requirements that
applies to the licensed manufacturer
under § 600.80 and 600.81. A waiver
request submitted under § 600.90 must
include supporting documentation.
Manufacturers of biological products
for human use must keep records of
each step in the manufacture and
distribution of a product including any
recalls. These recordkeeping
requirements serve preventative and
remedial purposes by establishing
accountability and traceability in the
manufacture and distribution of
products. These requirements also
enable FDA to perform meaningful
inspections.
Section 600.12 requires, among other
things, concurrently with the
performance of each step that all records
of each step in the manufacture and
distribution of a product be made and
retained for no less than 5 years after the
records of manufacture have been
completed or 6 months after the latest
expiration date for the individual
product, whichever represents a later
date. In addition, manufacturers must
maintain records of sterilization of
equipment and supplies, animal
necropsy records, and records in cases
of divided manufacturing of a product.
Section 600.12(b)(2) requires
manufacturers to maintain complete
records pertaining to the recall from
distribution of any product.
Respondents to this collection of
information are manufacturers of
biological products. Under table 1 of
this document, the number of
respondents is based on the estimated
number of manufacturers that submitted
the required information to the Center
for Biologics Evaluation and Research
and Center for Drug Evaluation and
Research, FDA, in fiscal year (FY) 2006.
Based on information obtained from
FDA’s database system, there were 88
licensed biologics manufacturers. This
number excludes those manufacturers
who produce blood and blood
components and in-vitro diagnostic
licensed products, because § 600.80(k)
specifically exempts manufacturers of
these products from adverse experience
reporting requirements. The total annual
responses are based on the estimated
number of submissions received
annually by FDA in FY 2006. However,
not all manufacturers have submissions
in a given year and some may have
multiple submissions. There were an
estimated 23,835 15-day Alert reports,
21,872 periodic reports, and 179 lot
distribution reports submitted to FDA.
The number of 15-day Alert reports for
postmarketing studies under § 600.80(e)
is included in the total number of 15day Alert reports. FDA received 6
requests for waiver under § 600.90, all of
which were granted. The hours per
response are based on FDA experience.
The burden hours required to complete
the MedWatch Form for § 600.80(c)(1),
(e), and (f) are reported under OMB
control no. 0910–0291.
In the Federal Register of February
15, 2008 (73 FR 8881), FDA published
a 60-day notice requesting public
comment on the information collection
provisions. No comments were received.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.
Adverse Experience Reporting for Licensed Biological Products; and
General Records--(OMB Control Number 0910-0308)--Extension
Under the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 262), FDA is
required to ensure the marketing of only those biological products
which are safe and effective. FDA must, therefore, be informed of all
adverse experiences occasioned by the use of licensed biological
products. FDA issued the adverse experience reporting (AER)
requirements in part 600 (21 CFR part 600) to enable FDA to take
actions necessary for the protection of the public health in response
to reports of adverse experiences related to licensed biological
products. The primary purpose of FDA's AER system is to flag
potentially serious safety problems with licensed biological products,
focusing especially on newly licensed products. Although premarket
testing discloses a general safety profile of a biological product's
comparatively common adverse effects, the larger and more diverse
patient populations exposed to the licensed biological product provides
the opportunity to collect information on rare, latent, and long-term
effects. Reports are obtained from a variety of sources, including
patients, physicians, foreign regulatory agencies, and clinical
investigators. Information derived from the AER system contributes
directly to increased public health protection because such information
enables FDA to recommend important changes to the product's labeling
(such as adding a new warning), to initiate removal of a biological
product from the market when necessary, and to assure the manufacturer
has taken adequate corrective action if necessary.
The regulation in Sec. 600.80(c)(1) requires licensed
manufacturers to report each adverse experience that is both serious
and unexpected, whether
[[Page 28487]]
foreign or domestic, as soon as possible but in no case later than 15-
calendar days of initial receipt of the information by the licensed
manufacturer. These are known as postmarketing 15-day Alert reports.
Section 600.80(c)(1) also requires licensed manufacturers to submit any
followup reports within 15-calendar days of receipt of new information
or as requested by FDA.
Section 600.80(e) requires licensed manufacturers to submit a 15-
day Alert report for an adverse experience obtained from a
postmarketing clinical study only if there is a reasonable possibility
that the product caused the adverse experience. Section 600.80(c)(2)
requires licensed manufacturers to report each adverse experience not
reported in a postmarketing 15-day Alert report at quarterly intervals,
for 3 years from the date of issuance of the biologics license, and
then at annual intervals. The majority of these periodic reports will
be submitted annually because a large percentage of currently licensed
biological products have been licensed longer than 3 years. Section
600.80(i) requires licensed manufacturers to maintain for a period of
10 years records of all adverse experiences known to the licensed
manufacturer, including raw data and any correspondence relating to the
adverse experiences. Section 600.81 requires licensed manufacturers to
submit, at an interval of every 6 months, information about the
quantity of the product distributed under the biologics license,
including the quantity distributed to distributors. These semiannual
distribution reports provide FDA with important information about
products distributed under biologics licenses, including the quantity,
certain lot numbers, labeled date of expiration, number of dosage
units, and date of release. Under Sec. 600.90, a licensed manufacturer
may submit a waiver request for any requirements that applies to the
licensed manufacturer under Sec. 600.80 and 600.81. A waiver request
submitted under Sec. 600.90 must include supporting documentation.
Manufacturers of biological products for human use must keep
records of each step in the manufacture and distribution of a product
including any recalls. These recordkeeping requirements serve
preventative and remedial purposes by establishing accountability and
traceability in the manufacture and distribution of products. These
requirements also enable FDA to perform meaningful inspections.
Section 600.12 requires, among other things, concurrently with the
performance of each step that all records of each step in the
manufacture and distribution of a product be made and retained for no
less than 5 years after the records of manufacture have been completed
or 6 months after the latest expiration date for the individual
product, whichever represents a later date. In addition, manufacturers
must maintain records of sterilization of equipment and supplies,
animal necropsy records, and records in cases of divided manufacturing
of a product. Section 600.12(b)(2) requires manufacturers to maintain
complete records pertaining to the recall from distribution of any
product.
Respondents to this collection of information are manufacturers of
biological products. Under table 1 of this document, the number of
respondents is based on the estimated number of manufacturers that
submitted the required information to the Center for Biologics
Evaluation and Research and Center for Drug Evaluation and Research,
FDA, in fiscal year (FY) 2006. Based on information obtained from FDA's
database system, there were 88 licensed biologics manufacturers. This
number excludes those manufacturers who produce blood and blood
components and in-vitro diagnostic licensed products, because Sec.
600.80(k) specifically exempts manufacturers of these products from
adverse experience reporting requirements. The total annual responses
are based on the estimated number of submissions received annually by
FDA in FY 2006. However, not all manufacturers have submissions in a
given year and some may have multiple submissions. There were an
estimated 23,835 15-day Alert reports, 21,872 periodic reports, and 179
lot distribution reports submitted to FDA. The number of 15-day Alert
reports for postmarketing studies under Sec. 600.80(e) is included in
the total number of 15-day Alert reports. FDA received 6 requests for
waiver under Sec. 600.90, all of which were granted. The hours per
response are based on FDA experience. The burden hours required to
complete the MedWatch Form for Sec. 600.80(c)(1), (e), and (f) are
reported under OMB control no. 0910-0291.
In the Federal Register of February 15, 2008 (73 FR 8881), FDA
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the information
collection provisions. No comments were received.

information obtained from FDA's database system, there were 303
licensed manufacturers of biological products in FY 2006. However, the
number of recordkeepers listed for Sec. 600.12(a) through (e)
excluding (b)(2) is estimated to be 112. This number excludes
manufacturers of blood and blood components because their burden hours
for recordkeeping have been reported under 21 CFR 606.160 in OMB
control no. 0910-0116. The total annual records is based on the annual
average of lots released (5,291), number of recalls made (1,841), and
total number of adverse experience reports received (45,707) in FY
2006. The hours per record are based on FDA experience.
FDA estimates the burden of this recordkeeping as follows:
