SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background FDA is announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry entitled ‘‘Sameness Evaluations in an ANDA— Active Ingredients.’’ This guidance is intended to assist applicants preparing an ANDA by providing recommendations on demonstrating sameness between the active ingredient in a proposed generic drug product and its RLD as required under section 505(j)(2)(ii) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 355(j)(2)(ii)) and FDA’s regulations at 21 CFR 314.94(a)(3)(i). The Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 (Pub. L. 98–417) (Hatch-Waxman Amendments) created an approval pathway for generic drug products under which applicants can submit an ANDA under section 505(j) of the FD&C Act. An ANDA relies on the Agency’s previous finding of safety and effectiveness for an RLD and, as a result, may be approved without submission of the same type and extent of information that is required for approval of a new drug application to establish the safety and effectiveness of the proposed product. Among other things, an ANDA must contain information to show that the active ingredient of the proposed generic drug product is the ‘‘same as’’ that of the RLD (21 U.S.C. 355(j)(2)(A)(ii); 21 CFR 314.94(a)(5)). FDA may not approve an ANDA unless the ANDA contains sufficient information to show that, among other things, the active ingredient is the same as that of the reference listed drug (21 CFR 314.127(a)(3)). Accordingly, the ANDA applicant is responsible for providing sufficient information to demonstrate that the proposed generic drug product is the ‘‘same as’’ the RLD with respect to the active ingredient. To assist prospective applicants in evaluating and demonstrating sameness, this guidance provides information on active ingredient sameness considerations. This draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA’s good guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when finalized, will represent the current thinking of FDA on ‘‘Sameness Evaluations in an ANDA—Active Ingredients.’’ It does not establish any rights for any person and VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:09 Nov 08, 2022 Jkt 259001 is not binding on FDA or the public. You can use an alternative approach if it satisfies the requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations. II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 While this guidance contains no collection of information, it does refer to previously approved FDA collections of information. Therefore, clearance by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501– 3521) is not required for this guidance. The previously approved collections of information are subject to review by OMB under the PRA. The collections of information in 21 CFR part 314 have been approved under OMB control number 0910–0001.

Electronic Access Persons with access to the internet may obtain the draft guidance at https:// www.fda.gov/drugs/guidancecompliance-regulatory-information/ guidances-drugs, https://www.fda.gov/ regulatory-information/search-fdaguidance-documents, or https:// www.regulations.gov.

Information Collection Request Title: HRSA Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) Data Report: (OMB No. 0915–0345). Abstract: HRSA’s RWHAP ADAP is authorized under Part B of the RWHAP legislation, codified in sections 2611 to 2631 of the Public Health Service Act, which provides grants to U.S. states and territories. RWHAP ADAP is a state and territory-administered program that provides Food and Drug Administration-approved medications to low-income people with HIV who have limited or no health coverage from private insurance, Medicaid, or Medicare. RWHAP ADAP funds may also be used to purchase health care coverage for eligible clients and for services that enhance access, adherence, and monitoring of drug treatments. All 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the five U.S. Pacific Territories or Associated Jurisdictions receive RWHAP Part B grant awards, including funds for RWHAP ADAP. RWHAP Part B reporting requirements include the annual submission of an ADAP Data Report (ADR), including a Recipient Report and a Client Report. The Recipient Report is a collection of basic information about grant recipient characteristics and policies including program administration, purchasing mechanisms, funding, and expenditures. The Client Report is a collection of client-level records (one record for each client enrolled in the RWHAP ADAP), which includes the client’s encrypted unique identifier, basic demographic data, enrollment information, services received, and clinical data. HRSA is proposing two revisions and one re-installment of questions to the ADR Recipient and Client Reports to DATES: E:\FR\FM\09NON1.SGM 09NON1 67703 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 216 / Wednesday, November 9, 2022 / Notices reflect program practices and support HRSA’s analysis and understanding of program impact. Specifically, the Recipient Report includes the following proposed changes: • Replacement of the Recertification Date variable with the Last Date of Eligibility Confirmation will remove the previous 6-month recertification requirement, which is no longer required by policy, see Policy Clarification Notice 21–02, and allow Recipients to report the latest eligibility confirmation date for existing clients; • Reinstate a question that was inadvertently removed from the 2021 ADR that is needed to assess the quality of medication data; and • Change the DUNS number variable to Unique Entity Identifier. On April 4, 2022, the federal government stopped using DUNs numbers, making it less burdensome for entities to do business with the federal government. As a result, Recipients no longer have to report the DUNs number in the ADR. HRSA does not anticipate these proposed revisions resulting in a change in the reporting burden. New and revised data elements require reporting of information that should already be collected by recipients to meet legislative or programmatic requirements for the proper oversight and administration of the program. Need and Proposed Use of the Information: RWHAP requires the submission of annual reports by the Secretary of Health and Human Services to the appropriate committees of Congress. HRSA uses the ADR to evaluate the national impact of the RWHAP ADAP by providing deidentified client-level data on individuals being served, services being delivered, and costs associated with these services. The client-level data is used to monitor health outcomes of people with HIV receiving care and treatment through the RWHAP ADAP, to monitor the use of RWHAP ADAP funds in addressing the HIV epidemic and its impact on communities, and to track progress toward achieving the goals identified in the National HIV/ AIDS Strategy. Likely Respondents: State ADAPs of RWHAP Part B recipients. 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.

    Information Collection Request Title: HRSA Ryan White HIV/AIDS 
Program (RWHAP) AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) Data Report: (OMB 
No. 0915-0345).
    Abstract: HRSA's RWHAP ADAP is authorized under Part B of the RWHAP 
legislation, codified in sections 2611 to 2631 of the Public Health 
Service Act, which provides grants to U.S. states and territories. 
RWHAP ADAP is a state and territory-administered program that provides 
Food and Drug Administration-approved medications to low-income people 
with HIV who have limited or no health coverage from private insurance, 
Medicaid, or Medicare. RWHAP ADAP funds may also be used to purchase 
health care coverage for eligible clients and for services that enhance 
access, adherence, and monitoring of drug treatments.
    All 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the 
U.S. Virgin Islands, and the five U.S. Pacific Territories or 
Associated Jurisdictions receive RWHAP Part B grant awards, including 
funds for RWHAP ADAP. RWHAP Part B reporting requirements include the 
annual submission of an ADAP Data Report (ADR), including a Recipient 
Report and a Client Report. The Recipient Report is a collection of 
basic information about grant recipient characteristics and policies

expenditures. The Client Report is a collection of client-level records 
(one record for each client enrolled in the RWHAP ADAP), which includes 
the client's encrypted unique identifier, basic demographic data, 
enrollment information, services received, and clinical data.
    HRSA is proposing two revisions and one re-installment of questions 
to the ADR Recipient and Client Reports to

[[Page 67703]]

reflect program practices and support HRSA's analysis and understanding 
of program impact. Specifically, the Recipient Report includes the 
following proposed changes:
     Replacement of the Recertification Date variable with the 
Last Date of Eligibility Confirmation will remove the previous 6-month 
recertification requirement, which is no longer required by policy, see 
Policy Clarification Notice 21-02, and allow Recipients to report the 
latest eligibility confirmation date for existing clients;
     Reinstate a question that was inadvertently removed from 
the 2021 ADR that is needed to assess the quality of medication data; 
and
     Change the DUNS number variable to Unique Entity 
Identifier. On April 4, 2022, the federal government stopped using DUNs 
numbers, making it less burdensome for entities to do business with the 
federal government. As a result, Recipients no longer have to report 
the DUNs number in the ADR.
    HRSA does not anticipate these proposed revisions resulting in a 
change in the reporting burden. New and revised data elements require 
reporting of information that should already be collected by recipients 
to meet legislative or programmatic requirements for the proper 
oversight and administration of the program.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: RWHAP requires the 
submission of annual reports by the Secretary of Health and Human 
Services to the appropriate committees of Congress. HRSA uses the ADR 
to evaluate the national impact of the RWHAP ADAP by providing 
deidentified client-level data on individuals being served, services 
being delivered, and costs associated with these services. The client-
level data is used to monitor health outcomes of people with HIV 
receiving care and treatment through the RWHAP ADAP, to monitor the use 
of RWHAP ADAP funds in addressing the HIV epidemic and its impact on 
communities, and to track progress toward achieving the goals 
identified in the National HIV/AIDS Strategy.
    Likely Respondents: State ADAPs of RWHAP Part B recipients.
    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.
