[Docket No. FDA–2020–N–1990]
Fee Rate for Using a Tropical Disease
Priority Review Voucher in Fiscal Year
2021
Food and Drug Administration,
Health and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA or the Agency) is
announcing the fee rates for using a
tropical disease priority review voucher
for fiscal year (FY) 2021. The Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C
Act), as amended by the Food and Drug
Administration Amendments Act of
2007 (FDAAA), authorizes FDA to
determine and collect priority review
user fees for certain applications for
review of drug and biological products
when those applications use a tropical
disease priority review voucher. These
vouchers are awarded to the sponsors of
certain tropical disease product
applications submitted after September
27, 2007, the enactment date of FDAAA,
upon FDA approval of such
applications. The amount of the fee
submitted to FDA with applications
using a tropical disease priority review
voucher is determined each fiscal year
based on the difference between the
average cost incurred by FDA to review
a human drug application designated as
priority review in the previous fiscal
year and the average cost incurred in the
review of an application that is not
subject to priority review in the
previous fiscal year. This notice
establishes the tropical disease priority
review fee rate for FY 2021 and outlines
the payment procedures for such fees.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Section 1102 of FDAAA (Pub. L. 110–
85) added section 524 to the FD&C Act
(21 U.S.C. 360n). In section 524,
Congress encouraged development of
new drug and biological products for
prevention and treatment of tropical
diseases by offering additional
incentives for obtaining FDA approval
of such products. Under section 524, the
sponsor of an eligible human drug
application submitted after September
27, 2007, for a tropical disease (as
defined in section 524(a)(3) of the FD&C
Act) shall receive a priority review
voucher upon approval of the tropical
disease product application (as defined
in section 524(a)(4) of the FD&C Act),
assuming other criteria are met. The
recipient of a tropical disease priority
review voucher may either use the
voucher for a future human drug
application submitted to FDA under
section 505(b)(1) of the FD&C Act (21
U.S.C. 355(b)(1)) or section 351(a) of the
Public Health Service Act (PHS Act) (42
U.S.C. 262), or transfer (including by
sale) the voucher to another party. The
voucher may be transferred repeatedly
until it ultimately is used for a human
drug application submitted to FDA
under section 505(b)(1) of the FD&C Act
or section 351(a) of the PHS Act. A
priority review is a review conducted
with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act
(PDUFA) goal date of 6 months after the
receipt or filing date, depending upon
the type of application. Information
regarding the PDUFA goals is available
at: https://www.fda.gov/media/99140/
download.
The sponsor that uses a priority
review voucher is entitled to a priority
review but must pay FDA a priority
review user fee in addition to any other
fee required by PDUFA. FDA published
guidance on its website about how this
tropical disease priority review voucher
program operates (available at: https://
www.fda.gov/regulatory-information/
search-fda-guidance-documents/
tropical-disease-priority-reviewvouchers).
This notice establishes the tropical
disease priority review fee rate for FY
2021 as $1,360,879 and outlines FDA’s
process for implementing the collection
of the priority review user fees. This rate
is effective on October 1, 2020, and will
remain in effect through September 30,
2021, for applications submitted with a
tropical disease priority review voucher.

II. Tropical Disease Priority Review
User Fee Rate for FY 2021
FDA interprets section 524(c)(2) of the
FD&C Act as requiring that FDA
determine the amount of the tropical
disease priority review user fee each
fiscal year based on the difference
between the average cost incurred by
FDA in the review of a human drug
application subject to priority review in
the previous fiscal year and the average
cost incurred by FDA in the review of
a human drug application that is not
subject to priority review in the
previous fiscal year.
A priority review is a review
conducted with a PDUFA goal date of 6
months after the receipt or filing date,
depending on the type of application.
As described in the PDUFA goals letter,
FDA has committed to reviewing and
acting on 90 percent of the applications
granted priority review status within
this expedited timeframe. Normally, an
application for a human drug or
biological product will qualify for
priority review if the product is
intended to treat a serious condition
and, if approved, would provide a
significant improvement in safety or
effectiveness. An application that does
not receive a priority designation
receives a standard review. As described
in the PDUFA goals letter, FDA has
committed to reviewing and acting on
90 percent of standard applications
within 10 months of the receipt or filing
date, depending on the type of
application. A priority review involves
a more intensive level of effort and a
higher level of resources than a standard
review.
FDA is setting fees for FY 2021, which
is to be based on standard cost data from
the previous fiscal year, FY 2020.
However, the FY 2020 submission
cohort has not been closed out yet, thus
the cost data for FY 2020 are not
complete. The latest year for which FDA
has complete cost data is FY 2019.
Furthermore, because FDA has never
tracked the cost of reviewing
applications that get priority review as
a separate cost subset, FDA estimated
this cost based on other data that the
Agency has tracked. The Agency
expects all applications that received
priority review would contain clinical
data. The application categories with
clinical data for which FDA tracks the
cost of review are: (1) New drug
applications (NDAs) for a new
molecular entity (NME) with clinical
data and (2) biologics license
applications (BLAs).
The total cost for FDA to review NME
NDAs with clinical data and BLAs in FY
2019 was $199,369,923. There was a

Committee Information Line, 1-800-741-8138 (301-443-0572 in the
Washington, DC area). A notice in the Federal Register about last
minute modifications that impact a previously announced advisory
committee meeting cannot always be published quickly enough to provide
timely notice. Therefore, you should always check the FDA's website at
https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm and scroll down to
the appropriate advisory committee meeting link, or call the advisory
committee information line to learn about possible modifications before
coming to the meeting.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Agenda: The meeting presentations will be heard, viewed, captioned,
and recorded through an online teleconferencing platform. The
committees will discuss new drug application (NDA) 209257, proposed
tradename, HYDEXOR, a fixed-dose combination oral tablet, submitted by
[Otilde]las Pharma, Inc., that contains hydrocodone, acetaminophen, and
promethazine, for the short-term (not to exceed 3 days) management of
acute post-operative pain severe enough to require an opioid analgesic
and the prevention of opioid-induced nausea and vomiting in patients
who are at risk for or have a history of nausea and vomiting.
FDA intends to make background material available to the public no
later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post
the background material on its website prior to the meeting, the
background material will be made publicly available on FDA's website at
the time of the advisory committee meeting. Background material and the
link to the online teleconference meeting room will be available at
https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm. Scroll
down to the appropriate advisory committee meeting link. The meeting
will include slide presentations with audio components to allow the
presentation of materials in a manner that most closely resembles an
in-person advisory committee meeting.
Procedure: Interested persons may present data, information, or
views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committees.
All electronic and written submissions submitted to the Docket (see the
ADDRESSES section) on or before October 19, 2020, will be provided to
the committees. Oral presentations from the public will be scheduled
between approximately 11 a.m. and 12 p.m. Eastern Time. Those
individuals interested in making formal oral presentations should
notify the contact person and submit a brief statement of the general
nature of the evidence or arguments they wish to present, the names and
addresses of proposed participants, and an indication of the
approximate time requested to make their presentation on or before
October 19, 2020. Time allotted for each presentation may be limited.
If the number of registrants requesting to speak is greater than
can be reasonably accommodated during the scheduled open public hearing
session, FDA may conduct a lottery to determine the speakers for the
scheduled open public hearing session. The contact person will notify
interested persons regarding their request to speak by October 20,
2020.
For press inquiries, please contact the Office of Media Affairs at
[email protected] or 301-796-4540.
FDA welcomes the attendance of the public at its advisory committee
meetings and will make every effort to accommodate persons with
disabilities. If you require accommodations due to a disability, please
