Customer/Partner Service Surveys
OMB Control Number 0910–0360—
Extension
Under section 1003 of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C.
393), FDA is authorized to conduct
research and public information
programs about regulated products and
responsibilities of the Agency.
Executive Order 12862, entitled ‘‘Setting
Customer Service Standard,’’ directs
Federal Agencies that ‘‘provide
significant services directly to the
public’’ to ‘‘survey customers to
determine the kind and quality of
services they want and their level of
satisfaction with existing services.’’ FDA
is seeking extension of an existing OMB
clearance to conduct a series of surveys
to implement Executive Order 12862.
Participation in the surveys is
voluntary. This request covers
customer/partner service surveys of
regulated entities, such as food
processors; cosmetic, drug, biologic, and
medical device manufacturers;
consumers; and health professionals.
The request also covers ‘‘partner’’ (State
and local governments) customer
service surveys.
FDA will use the information from
these surveys to identify strengths and
weaknesses in service to customers/
partners and to make improvements.
The surveys will measure timeliness,
appropriateness and accuracy of
information, courtesy, and problem
resolution in the context of individual
programs.
FDA estimates conducting 15
customer/partner service surveys per
year, each requiring an average of 15
minutes for review and completion. We
estimate respondents to these surveys to
be between 100 and 20,000 customers.
Some of these surveys will be repeats of
earlier surveys for purposes of
monitoring customer/partner service
and developing long-term data.
Respondents to this collection of
information cover a broad range of
stakeholders who have specific
characteristics related to certain
products or services regulated by FDA.
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:

Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3521), 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.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Radioactive Drug Research
Committees—21 CFR 361.1
OMB Control Number 0910–0053—
Extension
Under sections 201, 505, and 701 of
the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic
Act (21 U.S.C. 321, 355, and 371), FDA
has the authority to issue regulations
governing the use of radioactive drugs
for basic scientific research. This
information collection request supports
those regulations. Specifically, section
361.1 (21 CFR 361.1) sets forth specific
regulations about establishing and
composing radioactive drug research
committees (RDRCs) and their role in
approving and monitoring basic
research studies using
radiopharmaceuticals. No basic research
study involving any administration of a
radioactive drug to research subjects is
permitted without the authorization of
an FDA-approved RDRC (§ 361.1(d)(7)).
PO 00000
Frm 00057
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
3391
The type of research that may be
undertaken with a radiopharmaceutical
drug must be intended to obtain basic
information and not to carry out a
clinical trial for safety or efficacy. The
types of basic research permitted are
specified in the regulations and include
studies of metabolism, human
physiology, pathophysiology, or
biochemistry.
Section 361.1(c)(2) requires that each
RDRC will select a chairman, who will
sign all applications, minutes, and
reports of the committee. Each
committee will meet at least once each
quarter in which research activity has
been authorized or conducted. Minutes
will be kept and will include the
numerical results of votes on protocols
involving use in human subjects. Under
§ 361.1(c)(3), each RDRC will submit an
annual report to FDA. The annual report
will include the names and
qualifications of the members of and of
any consultants used by the RDRC,
using Form FDA 2914. The annual
report will also include a summary of
each study conducted during the
preceding year, using Form FDA 2915.
Under § 361.1(d)(5), each investigator
will obtain the proper consent required
under the regulations. Each female
research subject of childbearing
potential must state in writing that she
is not pregnant or, based on a pregnancy
test, be confirmed as not pregnant.
Under § 361.1(d)(8), the investigator
will immediately report to the RDRC all
adverse effects associated with use of
the drug, and the committee will then
report to FDA all adverse reactions
probably attributed to the use of the
radioactive drug.
Section 361.1(f) sets forth labeling
requirements for radioactive drugs.
These requirements are not in the
reporting burden estimate because they
are information supplied by the Federal
Government to the recipient for the
purposes of disclosure to the public (5
CFR 1320.3(c)(2)).
Types of research studies not
permitted under the regulations are also
specified and include those intended for
immediate therapeutic, diagnostic, or
similar purposes or to determine the
safety or effectiveness of the drug in
humans for such purposes (i.e., to carry
out a clinical trial for safety or efficacy).
These studies require filing of an
investigational new drug application
under 21 CFR part 312, and the
associated information collections are
covered in OMB control number 0910–
0014.
The primary purpose of this
collection of information is to determine
whether the research studies are being
conducted in accordance with required
E:\FR\FM\21JAN1.SGM
21JAN1
3392
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 13 / Tuesday, January 21, 2020 / Notices
submissions we received under the
regulations over the past 3 years.
We estimate the burden of this
collection of information as follows:
chairperson or chairpersons of each
individual RDRC, investigators, and
participants in the studies. The burden
estimates are based on our experience
with these reporting and recordkeeping
requirements and the number of
regulations and that human subject
safety is assured. If these studies were
not reviewed, human subjects could be
subjected to inappropriate radiation or
pharmacologic risks. Respondents to
this information collection are the

The primary purpose of this collection of information is to
determine whether the research studies are being conducted in
accordance with required
[[Page 3392]]
regulations and that human subject safety is assured. If these studies
were not reviewed, human subjects could be subjected to inappropriate
radiation or pharmacologic risks. Respondents to this information
collection are the chairperson or chairpersons of each individual RDRC,
investigators, and participants in the studies. The burden estimates
are based on our experience with these reporting and recordkeeping
requirements and the number of submissions we received under the
regulations over the past 3 years.
We estimate the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

We have adjusted our estimate for the information collection to
reflect an annual decrease of 525 hours and 147 responses since last
OMB review. This adjustment corresponds to fewer submissions we have
received under the information collection over the last few years.
