SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA approved PROAMATINE (midodrine HCl) for marketing under its accelerated approval regulations, 21 CFR part 314, subpart H, on September 6, 1996, to treat patients with symptomatic orthostatic hypotension. Since that time, FDA has approved five generic versions of this product. Orthostatic hypotension is a condition in which patients are unable to maintain blood pressure in the upright position and become dizzy or faint upon standing. Subpart H allows approval of drugs to treat serious or lifethreatening illnesses based on adequate SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00029 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 and well-controlled clinical trials establishing that the drug has an effect on a surrogate endpoint that is reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit or based on a clinical endpoint other than survival or irreversible morbidity. Approval of PROAMATINE was based on trials demonstrating that PROAMATINE increased 1-minute standing systolic blood pressure, a surrogate marker considered likely to correspond to a clinical benefit, principally relief of symptoms of orthostatic hypotension and improved ability to perform life activities. The subpart H regulations specify that approvals based upon surrogate endpoints are ‘‘subject to the requirement that the applicant study the drug further to verify and describe its clinical benefit’’ in postmarketing studies. The postmarketing study requirement for midodrine HCl was described in the new drug application (NDA) submission seeking its approval and referenced in the Agency’s 1996 approval letter. In the time since PROAMATINE was approved, the NDA holder has sponsored clinical trials and information regarding the drug’s efficacy has been published, but data submitted to the Agency have not verified the drug’s clinical benefit to FDA’s satisfaction. Accordingly, on August 16, 2010, FDA issued a notice of opportunity for a hearing (NOOH) on a proposal to withdraw approval of the NDA for midodrine HCl. Although the NOOH process is proceeding on a separate track, FDA recognizes that existing and potential sponsors may wish to conduct the clinical trials needed to support continued marketing authorization of midodrine HCl. To assist sponsors in planning and designing such trials, we are placing in the docket a brief description of a recommended clinical trial design. We are also inviting interested parties to submit information to the docket such as any existing controlled studies that verify the clinical benefit of midodrine HCl when used to treat orthostatic hypotension.

Proposed Projects

    Title: Statewide Automated Child Welfare Information System 
(SACWIS) Assessment Review Guide.
    Description: The Department of Health and Human Services is 
authorized under section 474 of the Social Security Act to provide 
funding to state title IV-E agencies for information systems that 
support the provision of services to the nation's foster care and 
adoption populations. The Act authorizes funding for the planning, 
design, development, or installation of statewide automated child 
welfare systems (SACWIS). The data from these systems allows the 
Department to report accurate, meaningful and reliable information to 
Congress about the extent of problems facing these children and the 
effectiveness of assistance provided to this population.
    Currently, SACWIS enable State efforts to meet the following 
Federal reporting requirements: The Adoption and Foster Care Analysis 
and Reporting System (AFCARS) required by section 479(b)(2) of the 
Social Security Act; the National Child Abuse and Neglect Data System 
(NCANDS); Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA); and the 
Chafee Independent Living Program National Youth in Transition Database 
(NYTD). SACWIS systems also support States' efforts to provide the 
information to conduct the Child and Family Service Reviews. Currently, 
40 States and the District of Columbia have developed, or are 
developing, a SACWIS with Federal financial participation.
    The SACWIS Assessment Reviews validate that all aspects of the 
project, as described in the approved Advance Planning Document, have 
been adequately completed, and conform to applicable regulations and 
policies. States use the SACWIS Assessment Review Guide (SARG) to 
document system components and functioning; each State's submission is 
unique and State-specific. These reviews are usually initiated by the 
State; however, ACF reserves the right to initiate SACWIS Assessment 
Reviews, at any time in the system life cycle. Submission of the SACWIS 
SARG and other supporting documentation by States, completed at the 
point that they have completed system development and the system is 
operational statewide, initiates a SACWIS Assessment Review. The 
additional supporting documentation submitted as part of the review 
process should be readily available to States as a result of their 
routine good project management practices. The SARG and supporting 
documentation may be submitted electronically.
    The information collected in the SACWIS Assessment Review Guide 
will allow State and Federal officials to determine if the State's 
SACWIS meets the requirements of title IV-E Federal Financial 
Participation (FFP) defined at 45 CFR 1355.50. Additionally, other 
States will be able to use the documentation provided as part of this
