SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    FDA is announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry 
and FDA staff entitled ``Human Factors Studies and Related Clinical 
Study Considerations in Combination Product Design and Development.'' 
This document provides guidance to industry and FDA staff on the 
underlying principles of HF studies during the development of 
combination products as defined under 21 CFR part 3. This draft 
guidance describes Agency recommendations regarding HF information in a 
combination product investigational or marketing application. It 
clarifies the different types of HF studies, offers recommendations for 
timing and sequencing of HF studies, and discusses how HF studies 
contribute to assuring that combination products are safe and effective 
for the intended users, uses and environments. The draft guidance also 
addresses process considerations for HF information in investigational 
or marketing applications to promote development and timely review of 
safe and effective combination products. In addition, the draft 
guidance describes how HF studies relate to other clinical studies.
    This draft guidance refers to two existing guidance documents that 
provide related information on HF considerations. These are Guidance 
for Industry and FDA Staff, ``Applying Human Factors and Usability 
Engineering to Optimize Medical Device Design,'' accessible at https://www.fda.gov/downloads/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/GuidanceDocuments/UCM259760.pdf and Draft Guidance ``Safety 
Considerations for Product Design to Minimize Medication Errors,'' 
accessible at https://www.fda.gov/downloads/Drugs/GuidanceComplianceRegulatoryInformation/Guidances/UCM331810.pdf.
    This draft guidance provides examples of the use of HF studies for 
different types of combination products in different clinical settings. 
FDA welcomes comments to the docket on other examples of combination 
products and why they may or may not need HF studies. Additionally FDA 
seeks comments on what challenges and development risks may arise 
depending upon whether HF studies are conducted before, in parallel to, 
or after major clinical studies.

II. Significance of Guidance

    This draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good 
guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when 
finalized, will represent the current thinking of FDA on ``Human 
Factors Studies and Related Clinical Study Considerations in 
Combination Product Design and Development.'' It does not establish any 
rights for any person and is not binding on FDA or the public. You can 
use an alternative approach if it satisfies the requirements of the 
applicable statutes and regulations.

III. Electronic Access

    Persons with access to the Internet may obtain the document at

IV. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

    This draft guidance refers to currently approved collections of 
information found in FDA regulations. These collections of information 
are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520). The 
collections of information in
