SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor. ``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) [[Page 11546]] and includes agency requests or requirements that members of the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information, including each proposed extension of an existing collection of information, before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with this requirement, FDA is publishing notice of the proposed collection of information set forth in this document. With respect to the following collection of information, FDA invites comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA's functions, including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques, when appropriate, and other forms of information technology. Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Products: Establishment Registration and Listing; Form FDA 3356; Eligibility Determination for Donors; and Current Good Tissue Practice--(OMB Control Number 0910-0543)--Extension Under section 361 of the Public Health Service Act (the PHS Act) (42 U.S.C. 264), FDA may issue and enforce regulations necessary to prevent the introduction, transmission, or spread of communicable diseases between the States or possessions or from foreign countries into the States. As derivatives of the human body, all HCT[sol]Ps pose some risk of carrying pathogens that could potentially infect recipients or handlers. FDA has issued regulations related to HCT[sol]Ps involving establishment registration and listing using Form FDA 3356, eligibility determination for donors, and CGTP. A. Establishment Registration and Listing; Form FDA 3356 The regulations in part 1271 (21 CFR part 1271) require domestic and foreign establishments that recover, process, store, label, package, or distribute an HCT[sol]P described in Sec. 1271.10(a), or that perform screening or testing of the cell or tissue donor to register with FDA (Sec. 1271.10(b)(1)) and submit a list of each HCT[sol]P manufactured (Sec. 1271.10(b)). Section 1271.21(a) requires an establishment to follow certain procedures for initial registration and listing of HCT[sol]Ps, and Sec. 1271.25(a) and (b) identifies the required initial registration and HCT[sol]P listing information. Section 1271.21(b), in brief, requires an annual update of the establishment registration. Section 1271.21(c)(ii) requires establishments to submit HCT[sol]P listing updates when an HCT[sol]P is changed as described in Sec. 1271.25(c). Section 1271.25(c) identifies the required HCT[sol]P listing update information. Section 1271.26 requires establishments to submit an amendment if ownership or location of the establishment changes. FDA requires the use of a registration and listing form (Form FDA 3356: Establishment Registration and Listing for Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Products (HCT[sol]Ps)) to submit the required information (Sec. Sec. 1271.10, 1271.21, 1271.25, and 1271.26). To further facilitate the ease and speed of submissions, electronic submission is accepted (https://www.fda.gov/BiologicsBloodVaccines/GuidanceComplianceRegulatoryInformation/EstablishmentRegistration/TissueEstablishmentRegistration/default.htm). B. Eligibility Determination for Donors In brief, FDA requires certain HCT[sol]P establishments described in Sec. 1271.1(b) to determine donor eligibility based on donor screening and testing for relevant communicable diseases agents and diseases, except as provided under Sec. 1271.90. The documented determination of a donor's eligibility is made by a responsible person defined in Sec. 1271.3(t) and is based on the results of required donor screening, which includes a donor medical history interview (defined in Sec. 1271.3(n)) and testing (Sec. 1271.50(a)). Certain records must accompany an HCT[sol]P once the donor-eligibility determination has been made (Sec. 1271.55(a)). This requirement applies both to an HCT[sol]P from a donor who is determined to be eligible as well as to an HCT[sol]P from a donor who is determined to be ineligible or where the donor-eligibility determination is not complete if there is a documented urgent medical need (Sec. 1271.60). Once the donor-eligibility determination has been made, the HCT[sol]P must be accompanied by a summary of records used to make the donor- eligibility determination (Sec. 1271.55(b)) and a statement whether, based on the results of the screening and testing, the donor is determined to be eligible or ineligible (Sec. 1271.55(a)(2)). Records used in determining the eligibility of a donor, i.e., results and interpretations of testing for relevant communicable disease agents, the donor-eligibility determination, the name and address of the testing laboratory or laboratories, and the name of the responsible person (defined in Sec. 1271.3(t)) who made the donor- eligibility determination and the date of the determination, must be maintained (Sec. 1271.55(d)(1)). If any information on the donor is not in English, the original record must be retained and translated to English and accompanied by a statement of authenticity from the translator (Sec. 1271.55(d)(2)). HCT[sol]P establishments must retain the records pertaining to HCT[sol]Ps at least 10 years after the date of administration, distribution, disposition, or expiration, whichever is latest (Sec. 1271.55(d)(4)). When a product is shipped in quarantine as defined in Sec. 1271.3(q), before completion of screening and testing, the HCT[sol]P must be accompanied by records identifying the donor; stating that the donor-eligibility determination has not been completed; and stating that the product must not be used until the donor-eligibility determination has been completed (Sec. 1271.60(c)). When an HCT[sol]P is used in cases of documented urgent medical need, the results of any completed donor screening and testing, and a list of any required screening and testing not yet completed also must accompany the HCT[sol]P (Sec. 1271.60(d)(2)). When an HCT[sol]P is used in cases of urgent medical need or from a donor who has been determined to be ineligible (as permitted under Sec. 1271.65), documentation by the HCT[sol]P establishment is required showing that the recipient's physician received notification that the testing and screening were not complete (in cases of urgent medical need), and upon the completion of the donor-eligibility determination, of the results of the determination (Sec. 1271.60(d)(3) and (d)(4) and Sec. 1271.65(b)(3)). An HCT[sol]P establishment is also required to establish and maintain procedures for all steps that are performed in determining eligibility (Sec. 1271.47(a)), including the use of a product from a donor testing reactive for cytomegalovirus (Sec. 1271.85(b)(2)). The HCT[sol]P establishment must record any departure from the procedures (Sec. 1271.47(d)). C. Current Good Tissue Practice (CGTP) FDA requires certain HCT[sol]P establishments to follow CGTP [[Page 11547]] (Sec. 1271.1(b)). Section 1271.155(a) permits the submission of a request for FDA approval of an exemption from or alternative to any requirement in subpart C or D of part 1271. Section 1271.290(c) requires such establishments to affix a distinct identification code to each HCT[sol]P that it manufactures that relates the HCT[sol]P to the donor and to all records pertaining to the HCT[sol]P. Whenever an establishment distributes an HCT[sol]P to a consignee, Sec. 1271.290(f) requires the establishment to inform the consignee, in writing, of the product tracking requirements and the methods the establishment uses to fulfill the requirements. Non-reproductive HCT[sol]P establishments described in Sec. 1271.10 are required under Sec. Sec. 1271.350(a)(1) and (a)(3) to investigate and report to FDA adverse reactions (defined in Sec. 1271.3(y)) using Form FDA-3500A (Sec. 1271.350(a)(2)). Form FDA-3500A is approved under OMB Control No. 0910-0291. Section 1271.370(b) and (c) requires establishments to include specific information either on the HCT[sol]P label or with the HCT[sol]P. The standard operating procedures (SOP) provisions under part 1271 include the following: (1) Section 1271.160(b)(2) (receiving, investigation, evaluating, and documenting information relating to core CGTP requirements, including complaints, and for sharing information with consignees and other establishments); (2) Sec. 1271.180(a) (to meet core CGTP requirements for all steps performed in the manufacture of HCT[sol]Ps); (3) Sec. 1271.190(d)(1) (facility cleaning and sanitization); (4) Sec. 1271.200(b) (cleaning, sanitizing, and maintenance of equipment); (5) Sec. 1271.200(c) (calibration of equipment); (6) Sec. 1271.230(a) and (c) (validation of changes to a process); (7) Sec. 1271.250(a) (controls for labeling HCT[sol]Ps); (8) Sec. 1271.265(e) (receipt, predistribution shipment, availability for distribution, and packaging and shipping of HCT[sol]Ps); (9) Sec. 1271.265(f) (suitable for return to inventory); (10) Sec. 1271.270(b) (records management system); (11) Sec. 1271.290(b)(1) (system of HCT[sol]P tracking); and (12) Sec. 1271.320(a) (review, evaluation, and documentation of complaints (as defined in Sec. 1271.3(aa))). Section 1271.155(f) requires an establishment operating under the terms of an exemption or alternative to maintain documentation of the terms and date of FDA approval. Section 1271.160(b)(3) requires documentation of appropriate corrective actions taken as a result of an audit of the quality program. Section 1271.160(b)(6) requires documentation of HCT[sol]P deviations. Section 1271.160(d) requires documentation of computer validation or verification activities and results when computers are used to comply with the core CGTP requirements for its intended use. Section 1271.190(d)(2) requires documentation of all facility cleaning and sanitation activities performed to prevent contamination of HCT[sol]Ps. Section 1271.195(d) requires documentation of environmental control and monitoring activities. Section 1271.200(e) requires documentation of equipment maintenance, cleaning, sanitizing, calibration, and other activities. Section 1271.210(d) requires documentation of the receipt, verification, and use of each supply or reagent. Section 1271.230(a) requires documentation of validation activities when the results of a process cannot be fully verified by subsequent inspection and tests. Section 1271.230(c) requires documentation of the review and evaluation of a process and revalidation of the process, if necessary, when any changes to a validated process occur. Section 1271.260(d) and (e) requires documentation of any corrective action taken when proper storage conditions are not met and documentation of storage temperatures for HCT[sol]Ps. Section 1271.265(c)(1) requires documentation that release criteria have been met before distribution of an HCT[sol]P. Section 1271.265(c)(3) requires documentation of any departure from a procedure at the time of its occurrence. Section 1271.265(e) requires documentation of the receipt, predistribution shipment, distribution, and packaging and shipping of HCT[sol]Ps. Section 1271.270(a) requires documentation of each step in manufacturing required in part 1271, subparts C and D. Section 1271.270(e) requires documentation of the name and address, and a list of responsibilities of any establishment that performs a manufacturing step for an establishment. Sections 1271.290(d) and (e) require documentation of a method for recording the distinct identification code and type of each HCT[sol]P distributed to a consignee to enable tracking from the consignee to the donor and to enable tracking from the donor to the consignee or final disposition. Section 1271.320(b) requires an establishment to maintain a record of each complaint that it receives, that contains relevant information for proper review and evaluation. Respondents to this information collection are establishments that recover, process, store, label, package, or distribute any HCT[sol]P, or perform donor screening or testing. The estimates provided below are based on the most recent available information from FDA's database system and trade organizations. The hours per response and hours per record are based on data provided by the Eastern Research Group, or FDA experience with similar recordkeeping or reporting requirements. There are an estimated 2,281 HCT[sol]P establishments (conventional tissue, eye tissue, peripheral blood stem cell, stem cell products from cord blood, reproductive tissue, and sperm banks), including 692 manufacturers of HCT[sol]P products regulated under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act and section 351 of the PHS Act (42 U.S.C. 262), that have registered and listed with FDA. In addition, we estimate that 251 new establishments have registered with FDA (Sec. 1271.10(b)(1) and (b)(2) and Sec. 1271.25(a) and (b)). There are an estimated 2,230 listing updates (Sec. Sec. 1271.10(b)(2), 1271.21(c)(ii), and 1271.25(c)) and 565 location/ownership amendments (Sec. 1271.26). Under Sec. 1271.55(a), an estimated total of 2,167,396 HCT[sol]Ps (which include conventional tissues, eye tissues, hematopoetic stem cells/progenitor cells, and reproductive cells and tissues) and an estimated total of 2,026,024 non-reproductive cells and tissues (total HCT[sol]Ps minus reproductive cells and tissues) are distributed per year by an estimated 1,589 establishments (2,281 - 692 = 1,589 establishments with approved applications). Under Sec. 1271.60(c) and (d)(2), FDA estimates that 1,375 establishments shipped an estimated 286,000 HCT[sol]Ps under quarantine, and that an estimated 18 establishments requested an exemption from or alternative to any requirement under part 1271, subpart C or D, specifically under Sec. 1271.155(a). Under Sec. 1271.290(c) and Sec. 1271.370(b) and (c), an estimated 1,694 non-reproductive HCT[sol]P establishments label each of their 2,026,024 HCT[sol]Ps with certain information. These establishments are also required to inform their consignees in writing of the requirements for tracking and of their established tracking system under Sec. 1271.290(f). FDA estimates 38 HCT[sol]P establishments submitted 76 adverse reaction reports involving a communicable disease (Sec. 1271.350(a)(1)). FDA estimates that 251 new establishments will create SOPs, and that 2,281 establishments will review and revise existing SOPs annually. FDA estimates that 1,141 HCT[sol]P establishments (2,281 x 50% = 1,141) [[Page 11548]] and 847 non-reproductive HCT[sol]P establishments (1,694 x 50% = 847) record and justify a departure from the procedures (Sec. Sec. 1271.47(d) and 1271.265(c)(3)). Under Sec. 1271.50(a), HCT[sol]P establishments are required to have a documented medical history interview about the donor's medical history and relevant social behavior as part of the donor's relevant medical records for each of the estimated total of 91,240 donors (which include conventional tissue donors, eye tissue donors, peripheral and cord blood stem cell donors, and reproductive cell and tissue donors), and the estimated total of 86,394 non-reproductive cells and tissue donors (total donors minus reproductive cell and tissue donors). FDA estimates that 684 HCT[sol]P establishments (2,281 x 30% = 684) document an urgent medical need for an HCT[sol]P and notify the physician using the HCT[sol]P (Sec. 1271.60(d)(3) and (d)(4) and Sec. 1271.65(b)(3)(iii)). FDA also estimates that 1,824 HCT[sol]P establishments (2,281 x 80% = 1,824) have to maintain records for an average of 2 contract establishments that perform a manufacturing process step for them (Sec. 1271.270(e)) and 1,141 HCT[sol]P establishments maintain an average of 5 complaint records annually (Sec. 1271.320(b)). In some cases, the estimated burden may appear to be lower or higher than the burden experienced by individual establishments. The estimated burden in these charts is an estimated average burden, taking into account the range of impact each regulation may have. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: Table 1.--Estimated Annual Reporting Burden\1\ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No. of Annual Frequency Total Annual Hours per 21 CFR Section Respondents per Response Responses Response Total Hours -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.10(b)(1) and 1271.21(b)\2\ 2,281 1 2,281 .5 1,141 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.10(b)(1) and (b)(2), 1271.21(a), and 1271.25(a) 251 1 251 .75 188 and (b)\2\ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.10(b)(2), 1271.21(c)(2)(ii), and 1271.25(c)\2\ 2,230 1 2,230 .5 1,115 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.26\2\ 565 1 565 .25 141 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.55(a) 1,589 1,364 2,167,396 .5 1,083,698 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.60(c) and (d)(2) 1,375 208 286,000 .5 143,000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.155(a) 18 1 18 3 54 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.290(c) 1,694 1,196 2,026,024 .083 168,835 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.290(f) 1,694 1 1,694 1 1,694 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.350(a)(1) and (a)(3) 38 2 76 1 76 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1271.370(b) and (c) 1,694 1,196 2,026,024 .25 506,506 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 1,906,448 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. \2\ Using Form FDA 3356.
