SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background OHRP and FDA are announcing the availability of a draft guidance document entitled ‘‘Institutional Review Board (IRB) Written Procedures: Guidance for Institutions and IRBs.’’ This guidance is intended to assist IRB administrators, IRB chairpersons, and other institutional officials responsible for preparing and maintaining written procedures for IRBs. OHRP and FDA frequently receive requests for clarification regarding the scope and content of IRB written procedures. We recognize that procedures may vary among institutions and IRBs due to differences in the type of research studies reviewed by the IRB, institutional policy or administrative practices, number of IRBs at the institution, affiliation with an institution, and local and State laws and regulations. In order to provide guidance on the appropriate content of written procedures, while taking into account these variations, we created an IRB Written Procedures Checklist to assist IRBs in preparing and maintaining detailed written procedures suitable for their institutions. The IRB Written Procedures Checklist incorporates the HHS and FDA regulatory requirements for IRB written procedures and additional topics that we recommend including in written procedures. The draft guidance, when finalized, will supersede OHRP’s July 1, 2011, ‘‘Guidance on Written IRB Procedures’’ and FDA’s 1998 ‘‘Appendix H: A SelfEvaluation Checklist for IRBs,’’ (formerly part of FDA’s Information Sheet Guidance for IRBs, Clinical Investigators, and Sponsors). To enhance human subject protection and reduce regulatory burden, OHRP and FDA have been actively working to harmonize the Agencies’ regulatory requirements and guidance for human subject research. This guidance document was developed as a part of these efforts. OHRP and FDA believe that it will be most helpful to the regulated community to issue a joint guidance document that will clearly demonstrate the Agencies’ harmonized approach to the topic of preparing and maintaining IRB written procedures. This draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA’s good guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when finalized, will represent OHRP’s and FDA’s current thinking on IRB written procedures. It does not establish any rights for any PO 00000 Frm 00031 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 person and is not binding on OHRP, FDA, or the public. You can use an alternative approach if it satisfies the requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations. II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 This draft guidance refers to previously approved collections of information. 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 referenced in this guidance that are related to IRB recordkeeping requirements under 21 CFR 56.115, including the information collection activities in the provisions in 21 CFR 56.108(a)(1) and (b), have been approved under OMB control number 0910–0130. The collections of information referenced in this guidance that are related to IRB recordkeeping requirements under 45 CFR 46.115, including the information collection activities in the provisions in 45 CFR 46.103(b)(4) and (5) have been approved under OMB control number 0990–0260.
