accompanies applications and
submissions currently submitted to FDA
and is already approved by OMB. The
OMB control numbers and expiration
dates for submitting FDA 3674 under
the following parts are: 21 CFR parts
312 and 314 (human drugs) are 0910–
0014, expiring August 31, 2011, and

0910–0120, expiring December 31, 2013,
and 0910–0231, expiring December 31,
2013.
Title VIII of the Food and Drug
Administration Amendments Act of
2007 (FDAAA) (Pub. L. 110–85)
amended the PHS Act by adding section
402(j). The provisions require additional
information to be submitted to the
clinical trials data bank
(ClinicalTrials.gov) 1 previously
established by the National Institutes of
Health/National Library of Medicine,
including expanded information on
clinical trials and information on the
results of clinical trials. The provisions
include responsibilities for FDA as well
as several amendments to the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the
FD&C Act).
One provision, section 402(j)(5)(B) of
the PHS Act, requires that a certification
accompany human drug, biological, and
device product submissions made to
FDA. Specifically, at the time of
submission of an application under
sections 505, 515, or 520(m) of the
FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 355, 360e, or
360j(m)), or under section 351 of the
PHS Act (42 U.S.C. 262), or submission
of a report under section 510(k) of the
FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360(k)), such
application or submission must be
accompanied by a certification, Form
FDA 3674, that all applicable
requirements of section 402(j) of the
PHS Act have been met. Where
available, such certification must
include the appropriate National
Clinical Trial (NCT) numbers.
The proposed extension of the
collection of information is necessary to
satisfy the previously mentioned
statutory requirement.
The importance of obtaining these
data relates to adherence to the legal
requirements for submissions to the
clinical trials registry and results data
bank and ensuring that individuals and
organizations submitting applications or

reports to FDA under the listed
provisions of the FD&C Act or the PHS
Act adhere to the appropriate legal and
regulatory requirements for certifying to
having complied with those
requirements. The failure to submit the
certification required by section
402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, and the
knowing submission of a false
certification are both prohibited acts
under section 301 of the FD&C Act (21
U.S.C. 331). Violations are subject to
civil money penalties.
In January 2009, FDA issued
‘‘Guidance for Sponsors, Industry,
Researchers, Investigators, and Food
and Drug Administration Staff—
Certifications To Accompany Drug,
Biological Product, and Device
Applications/Submissions: Compliance
with Section 402(j) of The Public Health
Service Act, Added By Title VIII of The
Food and Drug Administration
Amendments Act of 2007’’ available at
https://www.fda.gov/
RegulatoryInformation/Guidances/
ucm125335.htm. This guidance
identified the applications and
submissions that FDA considered
should be accompanied by the
certification form, Form FDA 3674. The
applications and submissions noted in
the guidance are reflected in the burden
analysis.
Investigational New Drug Applications
FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and
Research (CDER) received 1,752
investigational new drug applications
(INDs) and 11,769 clinical protocol IND
amendments in Fiscal Year (FY) 2010.
CDER anticipates that IND and clinical
protocol amendment submission rates
will remain at or near this level in the
near future.
FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation
and Research (CBER) received 281 new
INDs and 1,471 clinical protocol IND
amendments in FY 2010. CBER
anticipates that IND and clinical
protocol amendment submission rates
will remain at or near this level in the
near future.
The estimated total number of
submissions (new INDs and new
protocol submissions) subject to
mandatory certification requirements
under section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS
Act, is 13,521 for CDER plus 1,752 for
CBER, or 15,273 submissions per year.
The minutes per response is the
estimated number of minutes that a
respondent would spend preparing the
information to be submitted to FDA
under section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS
Act, including the time it takes to enter
the necessary information on the form.
Based on its experience with current
submissions, FDA estimates that
PO 00000
Frm 00068
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
approximately 15.0 minutes on average
would be needed per response for
certifications which accompany IND
applications and clinical protocol
amendment submissions. It is assumed
that most submissions to investigational
applications will reference only a few
protocols for which the sponsor/
applicant/submitter has obtained a NCT
number from ClinicalTrials.gov prior to
making the submission to FDA. It is also
assumed that the sponsor/applicant/
submitter has electronic capabilities
allowing them to retrieve the
information necessary to complete the
form in an efficient manner.
Marketing Applications/Submissions
In 2010, CDER and CBER received 165
new drug applications (NDA)/biologics
license applications (BLA)/
resubmissions and 1,483 NDA/BLA
amendments for which certifications are
needed. CDER and CBER received 191
efficacy supplements/resubmissions to
previously approved NDAs/BLAs in FY
2010. CDER and CBER anticipate that
new drug/biologic applications/
resubmissions and efficacy supplement
submission rates will remain at or near
this level in the near future.
FDA’s Center for Devices and
Radiological Health (CDRH) received a
total of 892 new applications for
premarket approvals (PMA), 510(k)
submissions containing clinical
information, PMA supplements,
applications for humanitarian device
exemptions (HDE) and amendments, for
a total of 424 new applications/
submissions in FY 2010. CDRH
anticipates that application,
amendment, supplement, and annual
report submission rates will remain at or
near this level in the near future.
FDA’s Office of Generic Drugs (OGD)
received 854 abbreviated new drug
applications (ANDAs) in FY 2010. OGD
received 495 bioequivalence
amendments/supplements FY 2010.
OGD anticipates that application,
amendment, and supplement
submission rates will remain at or near
this level in the near future.
Based on its experience reviewing
NDAs, BLAs, PMAs, HDEs, 510(k)s, and
ANDAs and experience with current
submissions of Form FDA 3674, FDA
estimates that approximately 45.0
minutes on average would be needed
per response for certifications which
accompany NDA, BLA, PMA, HDE,
510(k), and ANDA marketing
applications and submissions. It is
assumed that the sponsor/applicant/
submitter has electronic capabilities
allowing them to retrieve the
information necessary to complete the
form in an efficient manner.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jonna Capezzuto, Office of Information
Management, Food and Drug Administration, 1350 Piccard Dr., P150-400B,
Rockville, MD 20850, 301-796-3794, jonnalynn.capezzuto@fda.hhs.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal
Agencies must obtain approval from 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) 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 extension of an existing
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 extension of
the 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.
Certification To Accompany Drug, Biological Product, and Device
Applications or Submissions (Form FDA 3674)--(OMB Control Number 0910-
0616)--Extension
The information required under section 402(j)(5)(B) of the Public
Health Service Act (PHS Act) (42 U.S.C. 282(j)(5)(B)) is submitted in
the form of
[[Page 26306]]
a certification, Form FDA 3674, which accompanies applications and
submissions currently submitted to FDA and is already approved by OMB.
The OMB control numbers and expiration dates for submitting FDA 3674
under the following parts are: 21 CFR parts 312 and 314 (human drugs)
are 0910-0014, expiring August 31, 2011, and 0910-0001, expiring May
31, 2011; 21 CFR parts 312 and 601 (biological products) are 0910-0014
and 0910-0338, expiring December 31, 2013; 21 CFR parts 807 and 814
(devices) are 0910-0120, expiring December 31, 2013, and 0910-0231,
expiring December 31, 2013.
Title VIII of the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of
2007 (FDAAA) (Pub. L. 110-85) amended the PHS Act by adding section
402(j). The provisions require additional information to be submitted
to the clinical trials data bank (ClinicalTrials.gov) \1\ previously
established by the National Institutes of Health/National Library of
Medicine, including expanded information on clinical trials and
information on the results of clinical trials. The provisions include
responsibilities for FDA as well as several amendments to the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ FDA has verified the Web site address, but FDA is not
responsible for any subsequent changes to the Web site after this
document publishes in the Federal Register.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
One provision, section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, requires that a
certification accompany human drug, biological, and device product
submissions made to FDA. Specifically, at the time of submission of an
application under sections 505, 515, or 520(m) of the FD&C Act (21
U.S.C. 355, 360e, or 360j(m)), or under section 351 of the PHS Act (42
U.S.C. 262), or submission of a report under section 510(k) of the FD&C
Act (21 U.S.C. 360(k)), such application or submission must be
accompanied by a certification, Form FDA 3674, that all applicable
requirements of section 402(j) of the PHS Act have been met. Where
available, such certification must include the appropriate National
Clinical Trial (NCT) numbers.
The proposed extension of the collection of information is
necessary to satisfy the previously mentioned statutory requirement.
The importance of obtaining these data relates to adherence to the
legal requirements for submissions to the clinical trials registry and
results data bank and ensuring that individuals and organizations
submitting applications or reports to FDA under the listed provisions
of the FD&C Act or the PHS Act adhere to the appropriate legal and
regulatory requirements for certifying to having complied with those
requirements. The failure to submit the certification required by
section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, and the knowing submission of a
false certification are both prohibited acts under section 301 of the
FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 331). Violations are subject to civil money
penalties.
In January 2009, FDA issued ``Guidance for Sponsors, Industry,
Researchers, Investigators, and Food and Drug Administration Staff--
Certifications To Accompany Drug, Biological Product, and Device
Applications/Submissions: Compliance with Section 402(j) of The Public
Health Service Act, Added By Title VIII of The Food and Drug
Administration Amendments Act of 2007'' available at https://www.fda.gov/RegulatoryInformation/Guidances/ucm125335.htm. This
guidance identified the applications and submissions that FDA
considered should be accompanied by the certification form, Form FDA
3674. The applications and submissions noted in the guidance are
reflected in the burden analysis.
Investigational New Drug Applications
FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) received 1,752
investigational new drug applications (INDs) and 11,769 clinical
protocol IND amendments in Fiscal Year (FY) 2010. CDER anticipates that
IND and clinical protocol amendment submission rates will remain at or
near this level in the near future.
FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) received
281 new INDs and 1,471 clinical protocol IND amendments in FY 2010.
CBER anticipates that IND and clinical protocol amendment submission
rates will remain at or near this level in the near future.
The estimated total number of submissions (new INDs and new
protocol submissions) subject to mandatory certification requirements
under section 402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, is 13,521 for CDER plus
1,752 for CBER, or 15,273 submissions per year. The minutes per
response is the estimated number of minutes that a respondent would
spend preparing the information to be submitted to FDA under section
402(j)(5)(B) of the PHS Act, including the time it takes to enter the
necessary information on the form.
Based on its experience with current submissions, FDA estimates
that approximately 15.0 minutes on average would be needed per response
for certifications which accompany IND applications and clinical
protocol amendment submissions. It is assumed that most submissions to
investigational applications will reference only a few protocols for
which the sponsor/applicant/submitter has obtained a NCT number from
ClinicalTrials.gov prior to making the submission to FDA. It is also
assumed that the sponsor/applicant/submitter has electronic
capabilities allowing them to retrieve the information necessary to
complete the form in an efficient manner.
Marketing Applications/Submissions
In 2010, CDER and CBER received 165 new drug applications (NDA)/
biologics license applications (BLA)/resubmissions and 1,483 NDA/BLA
amendments for which certifications are needed. CDER and CBER received
191 efficacy supplements/resubmissions to previously approved NDAs/BLAs
in FY 2010. CDER and CBER anticipate that new drug/biologic
applications/resubmissions and efficacy supplement submission rates
will remain at or near this level in the near future.
FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) received a
total of 892 new applications for premarket approvals (PMA), 510(k)
submissions containing clinical information, PMA supplements,
applications for humanitarian device exemptions (HDE) and amendments,
for a total of 424 new applications/submissions in FY 2010. CDRH
anticipates that application, amendment, supplement, and annual report
submission rates will remain at or near this level in the near future.
FDA's Office of Generic Drugs (OGD) received 854 abbreviated new
drug applications (ANDAs) in FY 2010. OGD received 495 bioequivalence
amendments/supplements FY 2010. OGD anticipates that application,
amendment, and supplement submission rates will remain at or near this
level in the near future.
Based on its experience reviewing NDAs, BLAs, PMAs, HDEs, 510(k)s,
and ANDAs and experience with current submissions of Form FDA 3674, FDA
estimates that approximately 45.0 minutes on average would be needed
per response for certifications which accompany NDA, BLA, PMA, HDE,
510(k), and ANDA marketing applications and submissions. It is assumed
that the sponsor/applicant/submitter has electronic capabilities
allowing them to retrieve the information necessary to complete the
form in an efficient manner.
