The agency recommends that a request for special protocol assessment be submitted as an amendment to an IND for two reasons: (1) To ensure that each request is kept in the administrative file with the entire IND, and (2) to ensure that pertinent information about the request is entered into the appropriate tracking databases. Use of the information in the agency’s tracking databases enables the appropriate agency official to monitor progress on the evaluation of the protocol and to ensure that appropriate steps will be taken in a timely manner. The guidance recommends that the following information should be submitted to the appropriate Center with each request for special protocol assessment so that the Center may quickly and efficiently respond to the request: • Questions to the agency concerning specific issues regarding the protocol; and • All data, assumptions, and information needed to permit an adequate evaluation of the protocol, including: (1) The role of the study in the overall development of the drug; (2) information supporting the proposed trial, including power calculations, the choice of study endpoints, and other critical design features; (3) regulatory outcomes that could be supported by is the estimated number of hours that a sponsor would spend preparing the notification and background information to be submitted in accordance with the guidance, is estimated to be approximately 8 hours. Requests for Special Protocol Assessment Based on data collected within CDER and CBER, including the number of requests for special protocol assessment submitted in FY 2007, 2008, and 2009, CDER estimates that it will receive approximately 372 requests for special protocol assessment per year from approximately 216 sponsors. CBER estimates that it will receive approximately 10 requests from approximately 10 sponsors. The hours per response is the estimated number of hours that a respondent would spend preparing the information to be submitted with a request for special protocol assessment, including the time it takes to gather and copy questions to be posed to the agency regarding the protocol and data, assumptions, and information needed to permit an adequate evaluation of the protocol. Based on the agency’s experience with these submissions, FDA estimates approximately 15 hours on average would be needed per response. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: the results of the study; (4) final labeling that could be supported by the results of the study; and (5) for a stability protocol, product characterization and relevant manufacturing data. Description of Respondents: A sponsor, applicant, or manufacturer of a drug or biologic product regulated by the agency under the act or section 351 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 262) who requests special protocol assessment. Burden Estimate: Table 1 of this document provides an estimate of the annual reporting burden for requests for special protocol assessment. Notifications for a Carcinogenicity Protocol Based on data collected within CDER and CBER, including the number of notifications for carcinogenicity protocols and the number of carcinogenicity protocols submitted in fiscal year (FY) 2007, 2008, and 2009, CDER estimates that it will receive approximately 60 notifications of an intent to request special protocol assessment of a carcinogenicity protocol per year from approximately 28 sponsors. CBER estimates that it will receive approximately one notification of an intent to request special protocol assessment of a carcinogenicity protocol per year from approximately one sponsor.
