Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 163 / Thursday, August 22, 2019 / Notices
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was withdrawn from sale for reasons of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).
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a listed drug was withdrawn from sale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time after the drug has been withdrawn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.
ZONEGRAN (zonisamide) capsules,
50 mg, is the subject of NDA 020789,
held by Sunovion Pharmaceuticals Inc.,
and initially approved on August 22,
2003. ZONEGRAN (zonisamide) is
indicated as adjunctive therapy in the
treatment of partial seizures in adults
with epilepsy. ZONEGRAN
(zonisamide) capsules, 50 mg, is
currently listed in the ‘‘Discontinued
Drug Product List’’ section of the Orange
Book.
Unichem Pharmaceuticals (USA),
Inc., submitted a citizen petition dated
December 28, 2018 (Docket No. FDA–
2019–P–0076), under 21 CFR 10.30,
requesting that the Agency determine
whether ZONEGRAN (zonisamide)
capsules, 50 mg, was withdrawn from
sale for reasons of safety or
effectiveness.
After considering the citizen petition
and reviewing Agency records and
based on the information we have at this
time, FDA has determined under
§ 314.161 that ZONEGRAN (zonisamide)
capsules, 50 mg, was not withdrawn for
reasons of safety or effectiveness. The
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 247001
petitioner has identified no data or other
information suggesting that this drug
product was withdrawn for reasons of
safety or effectiveness. We have
carefully reviewed our files for records
concerning the withdrawal of
ZONEGRAN (zonisamide) capsules, 50
mg, from sale. We have also
independently evaluated relevant
literature and data for possible
postmarketing adverse events. We have
found no information that would
indicate that this drug product was
withdrawn from sale for reasons of
safety or effectiveness.
Accordingly, the Agency will
continue to list ZONEGRAN
(zonisamide) capsules, 50 mg, in the
‘‘Discontinued Drug Product List’’
section of the Orange Book. The
‘‘Discontinued Drug Product List’’
delineates, among other items, drug
products that have been discontinued
from marketing for reasons other than
safety or effectiveness. FDA will not
begin procedures to withdraw approval
of approved ANDAs that refer to this
drug product. Additional ANDAs for
this drug product may also be approved
by the Agency as long as they meet all
other legal and regulatory requirements
for the approval of ANDAs. If FDA
determines that labeling for this drug
product should be revised to meet
current standards, the Agency will
advise ANDA applicants to submit such
labeling.
Dated: August 16, 2019.

Principal Associate Commissioner for Policy.

Information Collection Request Title:
The Stem Cell Therapeutic Outcomes
Database OMB No. 0915–0310—
Revision.
Abstract: The Stem Cell Therapeutic
and Research Act of 2005, Public Law
(Pub. L.) 109–129, as amended by the
Stem Cell Therapeutic and Research
Reauthorization Act of 2015, Public Law
114–104 (the Act), provides for the
collection and maintenance of human
blood stem cells for the treatment of
patients and research. HRSA’s
Healthcare Systems Bureau has
established the Stem Cell Therapeutic
Outcomes Database. Operation of this
database necessitates certain
recordkeeping and reporting
requirements to perform the functions
related to hematopoietic stem cell
transplantation under contract to HHS.
The Act requires the Secretary to
contract for the establishment and
maintenance of information related to
patients who have received stem cell
therapeutic products and to do so using
a standardized, electronic format. Data
is collected from transplant centers,
under contract, by the Medical College
of Wisconsin’s Center for International
Blood and Marrow Transplant Research
and is used for ongoing analysis of
transplant outcomes. Over time, there is
an expected increase in the number of
recipients for whom data are reported as
an increasing number of transplants are
performed annually and survivorship
after transplantation improves.
A 60-day notice was published in the
Federal Register on March 7, 2019, vol.
84, No. 45; pp. 8334–8335. There were
no public comments.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: HRSA uses the information
to carry out its statutory responsibilities.
Information is needed to monitor the
clinical status of transplantation and
provide the Secretary of HHS with an
annual report of transplant center
specific survival data. Modifications of
these forms fall into several categories:
Consolidating questions and removing
duplicate questions across the forms,
implementing ‘check all that apply’
formatting to reduce data entry time,
and removing items no longer clinically
significant (e.g., drugs). These
modifications reduced the overall hours
of burden inventory.
Likely Respondents: Transplant
Centers.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search
data sources; to complete and review
the collection of information; and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.
