Therefore, you should always check the agency’s Web site and call the appropriate advisory committee hot line/ phone line to learn about possible modifications before coming to the meeting. Agenda: On December 15, 2009, the committee will discuss supplemental new drug application (sNDA) 21–366, CRESTOR (rosuvastatin calcium) tablets, AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals. CRESTOR is a member of the statin drug class which lowers lipids (fats that circulate in the bloodstream, including cholesterol) by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme involved in producing lipids in the body. The proposed indication (use) of CRESTOR in this application is primary prevention of cardiovascular disease based on the results of JUPITER. JUPITER was a clinical trial that studied individuals who did not have obvious or overt cardiovascular disease, but did have the following characteristics: Low or normal levels of the variety of cholesterol known as low-density lipoprotein, or LDL; elevated levels of C-reactive protein (hsCRP), a marker of inflammation in the body, and at least one of the conventional risk factors for cardiovascular disease. (The ‘‘conventional risk factors’’ are smoking, age, high blood pressure, low levels of the good cholesterol, HDL, and family history of heart disease). In these individuals, JUPITER evaluated the reduction of risk with rosuvastatin therapy on the study’s combined objectives (known as the study’s ‘‘composite endpoint’’) which included: Death from heart disease (heart attack) or vascular disease (stroke), heart attack that did not result in death, stroke that did not result in death, unstable angina (when the heart does not get enough blood flow, often a warning of heart attack), and heart or blood vessel disease that necessitates arterial revascularization, commonly known as ‘‘bypass surgery.’’ FDA intends to make background material available to the public no later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post the background material on its Web site prior to the meeting, the background material will be made publicly available at the location of the advisory committee meeting, and the background material will be posted on FDA’s Web site after the meeting.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In FR Doc. E9–18457, appearing on page 38451, in the Federal Register of Monday, August 3, 2009, the following corrections are made: 1. On page 38451, in the first column, in the SUMMARY section, the fifth sentence ‘‘This notice establishes fee rates for FY 2010 for application fees for PO 00000 an application requiring clinical data ($1,405,500), for an application not requiring clinical data or a supplement requiring clinical data ($702,750), for establishment fees ($457,200), and for product fees ($77,720).’’ is corrected to read ‘‘This notice establishes fee rates for FY 2010 for application fees for an application requiring clinical data ($1,405,500), for an application not requiring clinical data or a supplement requiring clinical data ($702,750), for establishment fees ($457,200), and for product fees ($79,720).’’ 2. On page 38452, the title of table 2 is corrected to read ‘‘Table 2.—FDA Personnel Compensation and Benefits (PC&B) Each Year and Percent Change (Dollars in Thousands)’’. 3. On page 38452, in table 2, in the fourth column that begins ‘‘PC&B per FTE’’, remove ‘‘,’’ everywhere it appears and replace it with ‘‘.’’. 4. On page 38454, footnote 1 to table 3 is corrected to read ‘‘1 Table 3 published in the Federal Register of August 1, 2008 (73 FR 45017), showed the average number of active INDs for the base years of 2002–2007 as 5,755.8. FDA discovered that a small subset of INDs had been double counted in the number reported last year. That error has been corrected in the revised number of 5,528.2 reflected in the table this year. Had the error not been made, the workload adjustment in FY 2009 would have been 3.76 percent rather than the 2.98 percent published in the Federal Register last year.’’ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Food and Drug Administration [Docket No. FDA–2009–N–0664] Emerging Arboviruses: Risk Assessment for Blood, Cell, Tissue, and Organ Safety; Public Workshop AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.
