Product Jurisdiction: Assignment of Agency Component for Review of 
Premarket Applications--(OMB Control Number 0523)--Extension

    This regulation relates to agency management and organization and 
has two purposes. The first is to implement section 503(g) of the 
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 353(g)), as added by 
the Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-629), and amended 
by the Medical Device User Fee and Modernization Act of 2002 (Public 
Law 107-250), by specifying how FDA will determine the organizational 
component within FDA assigned to have primary jurisdiction for the 
premarket review and regulation of products that are comprised of any 
combination of the following products: (1) A drug and a device; (2) a 
device and a biological product; (3) a biological product and a drug; 
or (4) a drug, a device, and a biological product. The second purpose 
of this regulation is to enhance the efficiency of agency management 
and operations by providing procedures for classifying and determining 
which agency component is designated to have primary jurisdiction for 
any drug, device, or biological product where such jurisdiction is 
unclear or in dispute.
    The regulation establishes a procedure by which an applicant may 
obtain an assignment or designation determination. The regulation 
requires that the request include the identity of the applicant, a 
comprehensive description of the product and its proposed use, and the 
applicant's recommendation as to which agency component should have 
primary jurisdiction, with an accompanying statement of reasons. The 
information submitted would be used by FDA as the basis for making the 
assignment or designation decision. Most information required by the 
regulation is already required for premarket applications affecting 
drugs, devices, biological products, and combination products. The 
respondents will be businesses or other for-profit organizations.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:
