ACTION:
Notice.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing an
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 the
notice. This notice solicits comments on
guidance on reagents for detection of
specific novel influenza A viruses.
DATES: Submit either electronic or
written comments on the collection of
information by November 26, 2012.

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) 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.

evaluated an application for an in vitro
diagnostic device for detection of
influenza subtype H5 (Asian lineage),
commonly known as avian flu. FDA
concluded that this device is properly
classified into class II in accordance
with 21 U.S.C. 360c(a)(1)(B), because it
is a device for which the general
controls by themselves are insufficient
to provide reasonable assurance of the
safety and effectiveness of the device,
but there is sufficient information to
establish special controls to provide
such assurance. The statute permits
FDA to establish as special controls
many different things, including
postmarket surveillance, development
and dissemination of guidance
recommendations, and ‘‘other
appropriate actions as the Secretary
deems necessary’’ (21 U.S.C.
360c(a)(1)(B)). This information
collection is a measure that FDA
determined to be necessary to provide
reasonable assurance of safety and
effectiveness of reagents for detection of
specific novel influenza A viruses.
FDA issued an order classifying the
H5 (Asian lineage) diagnostic device
into class II on February 3, 2006,
establishing the special controls
necessary to provide reasonable
assurance of the safety and effectiveness
of that device and similar future
devices. The new classification was
codified in 21 CFR 866.3332, a
regulation that describes the new
classification for reagents for detection
of specific novel influenza A viruses
and sets forth the special controls that
help to provide a reasonable assurance
of the safety and effectiveness of devices
classified under that regulation. The
regulation refers to the special controls
guidance document entitled ‘‘Class II
Special Controls Guidance Document:
Reagents for Detection of Specific Novel
Influenza A Viruses,’’ which provides
recommendations for measures to help
provide a reasonable assurance of safety
and effectiveness for these reagents. The
guidance document recommends that
sponsors obtain and analyze postmarket
data to ensure the continued reliability
of their device in detecting the specific
novel influenza A virus that it is
intended to detect, particularly given
the propensity for influenza viruses to
mutate and the potential for changes in
disease prevalence over time. As
updated sequences for novel influenza
A viruses become available from the
World Health Organization, National
Institutes of Health, and other public
health entities, sponsors of reagents for
detection of specific novel influenza A
viruses will collect this information,
compare them with the primer/probe
