Proposed Project: Evaluation of Rapid HIV HomeTesting among MSM Trial—New— National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description Innovative testing strategies are needed to reduce levels of undiagnosed Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and increase early access to treatment. Rapid home HIV tests may play an important role in efforts to reduce both HIV morbidity and mortality. Given the unrelenting HIV crisis among men who have sex with men (MSM) and the release into the market of a rapid HIV test for at-home use, it is necessary to evaluate the impact of providing rapid HIV hometest kits on repeat HIV testing, linkage to care, partner testing, serosorting, and HIV sexual risk behaviors among MSM. PO 00000 Frm 00049 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 This information will assist the Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention (DHAP) in developing recommendations, future research and program needs concerning home-testing for MSM. Specific Aims This study is a randomized trial which aims to evaluate the use and effectiveness of home-test kits as a public health strategy for increasing testing among MSM. A secondary aim of the randomized trial is to evaluate the extent to which MSM (both HIVnegative and HIV-positive) distribute HIV home-test kits to their social and sexual networks. The population for the randomized trial will be men over the age of 18 years who self-report that they have had anal sex with at least one man in the past year. We will recruit approximately 3,200 men who report their HIV status to be negative or who are unaware of their HIV status and 300 men who selfreport that they are HIV-positive. Men will be recruited from the 12 cities: Atlanta, Georgia; Baltimore, Maryland; Chicago, Illinois; Dallas, Texas; District of Columbia; Houston, Texas; Los Angeles, California; Miami, Florida; New York City, New York; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; San Francisco, California; and San Juan, Puerto Rico. We will ensure that at least 20% of participants are black and at least 15% are Hispanic. Recruitment will be conducted through banner advertisements displayed on social networking sites such as Facebook and dating and sex-seeking sites such as Manhunt and Adam4Adam. This study also has a qualitative component that aims to examine the experiences of participants in the randomized control trial (RCT). Participants for the qualitative data collection will be drawn from the randomized control trial. Two data collection techniques will be used: focus group discussions (FGD) (both online and in-person) and individual indepth interviews (IDIs). CDC is requesting approval for a 3year clearance for data collection. All participant consenting and data collection for the RCT will be completed using an online reporting system. Data will be collected using an eligibility screener, an online study registration process, a baseline survey, HIV test results reporting system, and follow-up surveys. Men will be asked to use the study Web site or download and access a secure cell phone application prior to enter results of their rapid HIV hometests that they receive and conduct at home and to take the follow-up surveys which will collect information on HIV E:\FR\FM\04NON1.SGM 04NON1 66009 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 213 / Monday, November 4, 2013 / Notices testing results and behaviors and sexual activities.

ACTION: Notice. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has determined that INVEGA (paliperidone) extendedrelease tablet, 12 milligrams (mg), was not withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination will allow FDA to approve abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) for paliperidone extended-release tablet, 12 mg, if all other legal and regulatory requirements are met. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Linda Jong, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug TKELLEY on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:07 Nov 01, 2013 Jkt 232001 Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 51, Rm. 6224, Silver Spring, MD 20993–0002, 301–796–3977. In 1984, Congress enacted the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 (Pub. L. 98–417) (the 1984 amendments), which authorized the approval of duplicate versions of drug products under an ANDA procedure. ANDA applicants must, with certain exceptions, show that the drug for which they are seeking approval contains the same active ingredient in the same strength and dosage form as the ‘‘listed drug,’’ which is a version of the drug that was previously approved. ANDA applicants do not have to repeat the extensive clinical testing otherwise necessary to gain approval of a new drug application (NDA). The 1984 amendments include what is now section 505(j)(7) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 355(j)(7)), which requires FDA to publish a list of all approved drugs. FDA publishes this list as part of the ‘‘Approved Drug Products With Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations,’’ which is known generally as the ‘‘Orange Book.’’ Under FDA regulations, drugs are removed from the list if the Agency withdraws or suspends approval of the drug’s NDA or ANDA for reasons of safety or effectiveness or if FDA determines that the listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness (21 CFR 314.162). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00050 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 A person may petition the Agency to determine, or the Agency may determine on its own initiative, whether a listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination may be made at any time after the drug has been withdrawn from sale, but must be made prior to approving an ANDA that refers to the listed drug (§ 314.161 (21 CFR 314.161)). FDA may not approve an ANDA that does not refer to a listed drug. INVEGA (paliperidone) extendedrelease tablet, 12 mg, is the subject of NDA 21–999, held by Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and initially approved on December 19, 2006. INVEGA extended-release tablets are indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia and the treatment of schizoaffective disorder as monotherapy and as an adjunct to mood stabilizers and/or antidepressants. Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., has never marketed INVEGA (paliperidone) extended-release tablet, 12 mg. In previous instances (see, e.g., 72 FR 9763, 61 FR 25497), the Agency has determined that, for purposes of §§ 314.161 and 314.162, never marketing an approved drug product is equivalent to withdrawing the drug from sale. The other strengths of INVEGA (paliperidone) that are approved under NDA 21–999 are being marketed. Hyman, Phelps & McNamara, P.C., submitted a citizen petition dated June 25, 2013 (Docket No. FDA–2013–P– 0775), under 21 CFR 10.30, requesting that the Agency determine whether E:\FR\FM\04NON1.SGM 04NON1
