Submission of Bioequivalence Data
AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
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
the requirement for an abbreviated new
drug application (ANDA) applicant to
submit data from all bioequivalence
(BE) studies the applicant conducts on
a drug product formulation submitted
for approval.
DATES: Submit either electronic or
written comments on the collection of
information by August 25, 2014.
ADDRESSES: Submit electronic
comments on the collection of
information to https://
www.regulations.gov. Submit written
comments on the collection of
information to the Division of Dockets
Management (HFA–305), Food and Drug
Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, Rm.
tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
SUMMARY:
1061, Rockville, MD 20852. All
comments should be identified with the
docket number found in brackets in the
heading of this document.

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.
Requirements for Submission of In Vivo
Bioequivalence Data—21 CFR Parts 314
and 320; OMB Control Number 0910–
0630—Extension
In the Federal Register of January 16,
2009 (74 FR 2849), the Agency
published a final rule revising FDA
regulations to require applicants to
submit data on all BE studies, including
studies that do not meet passing
bioequivalence criteria, which are
performed on a drug product
formulation submitted for approval
under an ANDA, or in an amendment or
supplement to an ANDA that contains
BE studies. In the final rule, FDA
amended §§ 314.94(a)(7)(i), 314.96(a)(1),
320.21(b)(1), and 314.97 (21 CFR
314.94(a)(7)(i), 314.96(a)(1),
320.21(b)(1), and 314.97) to require an
ANDA applicant to submit information
from all BE studies, both passing and
nonpassing, conducted by the applicant
on the same drug product formulation
as that submitted for approval under an
ANDA, amendment, or supplement.
In table 1 of this document, FDA has
estimated the reporting burden
associated with each section of this
requirement. FDA believes that the
majority of additional BE studies will be
reported in ANDAs (submitted under
§ 314.94), rather than supplements
(reported in § 314.97) because it is
unlikely than an ANDA holder will
conduct BE studies with a drug after the
drug has been approved. With respect to
the reporting of additional BE studies in
amendments (submitted under
§ 314.96), this should also account for a
small number of reports because most
BE studies will be conducted on a drug
prior to the submission of the ANDA
and will be reported in the ANDA itself.
FDA estimates applicants will require
approximately 120 hours of staff time to
prepare and submit each additional
complete BE study report and
approximately 60 hours of staff time for
each additional BE summary report. The
Agency believes that a complete report
will be required approximately 20
percent of the time, while a summary
will suffice approximately 80 percent of
the time. Based on a weighted-average
calculation using the information
presented previously in this document,
the submission of each additional BE
study is expected to take 72 hours of
staff time ([120 × 0.2] + [60 × 0.8]).
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:

The Public Health Security and
Bioterrorism Preparedness and
Response Act of 2002 (the Bioterrorism
Act) (Pub. L. 107–188) added section
414 of the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C.
350c), which requires that persons who
manufacture, process, pack, hold,
receive, distribute, transport, or import
food in the United States establish and
maintain records identifying the
immediate previous sources and
immediate subsequent recipients of
food. Sections 1.326 through 1.363 of
our regulations (21 CFR 1.326 through
1.363) set forth the requirements for
recordkeeping and records access. The
requirement to establish and maintain
records improves our ability to respond
to, and further contain, threats of
serious adverse health consequences or
death to humans or animals from
accidental or deliberate contamination
of food.
Information maintained under these
regulations will help us to identify and
locate quickly contaminated or
potentially contaminated food and to
inform the appropriate individuals and
food facilities of specific terrorist
threats. Our regulations require that
records for non-transporters include the
name and full contact information of
sources, recipients, and transporters, an
adequate description of the food
including the quantity and packaging,
and the receipt and shipping dates
(§§ 1.337 and 1.345). Required records
for transporters include the names of
consignor and consignee, points of
origin and destination, date of
shipment, number of packages,
description of freight, route of
movement and name of each carrier
participating in the transportation, and
transfer points through which shipment
moved (§ 1.352). Existing records may
be used if they contain all of the
