collection associated with the
Evaluation for the Aging and Disability
Resource Center (ADRC) Program is
necessary to determine the overall effect
of ADRCs on both long term support
and service systems and individuals.
ACL will gather information about how
ADRCs provide services and whether
consumers, who access ADRCs, as
compared to consumers who access
other systems, report that the experience
is more personalized, consumerfriendly, streamlined, and efficient. Staff
of the Administration for Community
Living’s Administration on Aging’s
Office of Nutrition and Health
Promotion Programs will use the
information and recommendations
resulting from the evaluation of the
Aging and Disability Resource Centers
to both determine the value of the ADRC
model and to improve program
operations. In response to the 60-day
Federal Register notice related to this
proposed data collection and published
on October 14, 2011, one set of
comments was received. The majority of
the comments focused on the practical
utility of the proposed collection of
information. The remaining comments
provided suggestions for enhancing the
quality and clarity of the information to
be collected. Many of the latter
comments resulted in revisions to the

opportunity for public comment on the
proposed collection of certain
information by the Agency. Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the
PRA), Federal Agencies are required to
publish notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension of an existing collection of
information, and to allow 60 days for
public comment in response to this
notice. This notice solicits comments on
the collection of information contained
in the Public Health Service (PHS)
guideline entitled ‘‘PHS Guideline on
Infectious Disease Issues in
Xenotransplantation,’’ dated January 19,
2001.
DATES: Submit either electronic or
written comments on the collection of
information by August 13, 2012.
ADDRESSES: Submit electronic
comments on the collection of
information to https://

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) 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: (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.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
PHS Guideline on Infectious Disease
Issues in Xenotransplantation—(OMB
Control Number 0910–0456)—Extension
The statutory authority to collect this
information is provided under sections
351 and 361 of the PHS Act (42 U.S.C.
262 and 264) and the provisions of the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
that apply to drugs (21 U.S.C. 301 et
seq.). The PHS guideline recommends
procedures to diminish the risk of
transmission of infectious agents to the
xenotransplantation product recipient
and to the general public. The PHS
guideline is intended to address public
health issues raised by
xenotransplantation, through
identification of general principles of
prevention and control of infectious
diseases associated with
PO 00000
Frm 00027
Fmt 4703

xenotransplantation that may pose a
hazard to the public health. The
collection of information described in
this guideline is intended to provide
general guidance on the following
topics: (1) The development of
xenotransplantation clinical protocols,
(2) the preparation of submissions to
FDA, and (3) the conduct of
xenotransplantation clinical trials. Also,
the collection of information will help
ensure that the sponsor maintains
important information in a crossreferenced system that links the relevant
records of the xenotransplantation
product recipient, xenotransplantation
product, source animal(s), animal
procurement center, and significant
nosocomial exposures. The PHS
guideline describes an occupational
health service program for the
protection of health care workers
involved in xenotransplantation
procedures, caring for
xenotransplantation product recipients,
and performing associated laboratory
testing. The PHS guideline is intended
to protect the public health and to help
ensure the safety of using
xenotransplantation products in
humans by preventing the introduction,
transmission, and spread of infectious
diseases associated with
xenotransplantation.
The PHS guideline also recommends
that certain specimens and records be
maintained for 50 years beyond the date
of the xenotransplantation. These
include: (1) Records linking each
xenotransplantation product recipient
with relevant health records of the
source animal, herd or colony, and the
specific organ, tissue, or cell type
included in or used in the manufacture
of the product (3.2.7.1); (2) aliquots of
serum samples from randomly selected
animal and specific disease
investigations (3.4.3.1); (3) source
animal biological specimens designated
for PHS use (3.7.1), animal health
records (3.7.2), including necropsy
results (3.6.4); and (4) recipients’
biological specimens (4.1.2). The
retention period is intended to assist
health care practitioners and officials in
surveillance and in tracking the source
of an infection, disease, or illness that
might emerge in the recipient, the
source animal, or the animal herd or
colony after a xenotransplantation.
The recommendation for maintaining
records for 50 years is based on clinical
experience with several human viruses
that have presented problems in human
to human transplantation and are
therefore thought to share certain
characteristics with viruses that may
pose potential risks in
xenotransplantation. These
