The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act), as amended by the Prescription Drug User Fee Amendments of 2017 (PDUFA VI), authorizes FDA to collect application fees for certain applications for the review of human drug and biological products, and prescription drug program fees for certain approved products. This notice establishes the fee rates for FY 2022. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Misbah Tareen, Office of Financial Management, Food and Drug Administration, 4041 Powder Mill Rd., Rm. 61077A, Beltsville, MD 20705– 4304, 301–796–3997. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: I. Background Sections 735 and 736 of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 379g and 379h, respectively) establish two different kinds of user fees. Fees are assessed as follows: (1) Application fees are assessed on certain types of applications for the review of human drug and biological products and (2) prescription drug program fees PO 00000 Frm 00031 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 are assessed on certain approved products (section 736(a) of the FD&C Act). When specific conditions are met, FDA may waive or reduce fees (section 736(d) of the FD&C Act) or exempt certain prescription drug products from fees (section 736(k) of the FD&C Act). For FY 2018 through FY 2022, the base revenue amounts for the total revenues from all PDUFA fees are established by PDUFA VI. The base revenue amount for FY 2022 is $1,098,077,960. The FY 2022 base revenue amount is adjusted for inflation and for the resource capacity needs for the process for the review of human drug applications (the capacity planning adjustment (CPA)). An additional dollar amount specified in the statute (see section 736(b)(1)(F) of the FD&C Act) is then added to provide for additional full-time equivalent (FTE) positions to support PDUFA VI initiatives. The FY 2022 revenue amount may be adjusted further, if necessary, to provide for sufficient operating reserves of carryover user fees. Finally, the amount is adjusted to provide for additional direct costs to fund PDUFA VI initiatives. Fee amounts are to be established each year so that revenues from application fees provide 20 percent of the total revenue, and prescription drug program fees provide 80 percent of the total revenue. This document provides fee rates for FY 2022 for an application requiring clinical data ($3,117,218), for an application not requiring clinical data ($1,558,609), and for the prescription drug program fee ($369,413). These fees are effective on October 1, 2021, and will remain in effect through September 30, 2022. For applications that are submitted on or after October 1, 2021, the new fee schedule must be used. II. Fee Revenue Amount for FY 2022 The base revenue amount for FY 2022 is $1,098,077,960 prior to adjustments for inflation, capacity planning, additional FTE, operating reserve, and additional direct costs (see section 736(b)(1) of the FD&C Act). A. FY 2022 Statutory Fee Revenue Adjustments for Inflation PDUFA VI specifies that the $1,098,077,960 is to be adjusted for inflation increases for FY 2022 using two separate adjustments—one for personnel compensation and benefits (PC&B) and one for non-PC&B costs (see section 736(c)(1) of the FD&C Act). The component of the inflation adjustment for payroll costs shall be one plus the average annual percent change in the cost of all PC&B paid per FTE positions at FDA for the first 3 of the E:\FR\FM\16AUN1.SGM 16AUN1
