participation by the clinical
investigator. The guidance will be of
interest especially to sponsors, clinical
investigators, and members of
investigational review boards (IRBs).

I. Background
[Docket No. FDA–2008–D–0576]
FDA is announcing the availability of
a guidance for sponsors, clinical
investigators, and IRBs entitled ‘‘Data
Retention When Subjects Withdraw
from FDA-Regulated Clinical Trials.’’
This guidance clarifies FDA’s longstanding position that it is critical that
data be retained from individuals who
decide to discontinue participation in a
clinical study of an investigational
product, or who were discontinued from
participation by the clinical
investigator.

Administration (FDA) is announcing the

FDA developed this guidance in
response to questions from sponsors,
clinical investigators, and members of
IRBs about previously collected data
from subjects who withdraw or are
withdrawn from clinical investigations.
This guidance describes the regulatory
and statutory basis for FDA’s position,
as well as the supporting ethical and
quality standards, and outlines key
points regarding the withdrawal of
subjects from a clinical investigation.
Because data resulting from these
clinical investigations is used to support
research applications and new product
approvals, it is critical that FDA have a
complete and accurate data set. If data
were to be removed from the study
database, the scientific validity of the
data and thus FDA’s analysis of it could
be jeopardized potentially
compromising the agency’s ability to
safeguard the public health.
This Level 1 guidance is being issued
for immediate implementation to
prevent the potential loss of important
clinical trial data. This approach is
consistent with FDA’s good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). If
comments are received on this Level 1
guidance, FDA will review the
comments and revise the guidance if
appropriate. This guidance represents
the agency’s long-standing policy and
current thinking on the retention of data
when subjects withdraw from FDAregulated clinical trials. 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 requirements of the
applicable statutes and regulations.
Interested persons may submit written
comments on the guidance to the
Division of Dockets Management (see
ADDRESSES).

Register, the Office of Human Research
Protections (OHRP) is announcing the
