with a 60-day comment period to request comments on the draft guidance 
for industry entitled ``Development of Shared System REMS.'' This draft 
guidance describes some of the possible benefits of a shared system 
REMS and provides general principles and recommendations to assist 
industry with the development of these programs. Section 610 of the 
Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (Pub. L. 116-94, 133 
Stat. 3524 (December 20, 2019)), amended section 505-1(i) of the 
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 351-1(i)), regarding 
the requirement that a drug that is the subject of an abbreviated new 
drug application (ANDA) and its reference listed drug use a single, 
shared system for the elements to assure safe use unless FDA waives 
that requirement. We intend to revise the draft guidance accordingly. 
The Agency continues to recognize that shared system REMS may be in the 
interest of public health.
    FDA is reopening the comment period until May 18, 2020. FDA is 
interested in receiving additional input regarding any further steps 
the Agency could take to facilitate successful formation of shared 
system REMS. In particular, FDA is seeking comment on the challenges 
and successes with: (1) Negotiating governance agreements among parties 
involved in a shared system REMS and (2) developing effective shared
