SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background FDA is announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry entitled ‘‘Fixed-Combinations and Single-Entity Versions of Previously Approved Antiretrovirals for the Treatment or Prevention of HIV–1 Under PEPFAR.’’ This draft guidance provides recommendations for applications for single-entity ARV and ARV FC drug products for the treatment of HIV–1 infection that are intended for procurement under PEPFAR. Specifically, this draft guidance addresses versions of ARV drug products for which the individual ARV drug product components are already FDA-approved and for which substantial evidence of safety and efficacy of the specific drug product or combination drug product already exists. The draft guidance discusses regulatory procedures relevant to such applications and recommendations on how to identify and address common issues. The recommendations in this draft guidance primarily focus on the tentative approval of marketing applications intended for procurement under PEPFAR, where there are patent or exclusivity barriers to final marketing approval. When finalized, this draft guidance will replace the previous final guidance for industry entitled ‘‘Fixed Dose Combinations and Single-Entity Versions of Previously Approved Antiretrovirals for the Treatment of HIV,’’ issued October 18, 2006 (71 FR 61483). Important changes in this draft guidance compared to the 2006 final version include the following: • Addition of information about ARV drug products for prevention of HIV–1 infection. • Deletion of references to copackaged products and focus on singleentity ARV and ARV FC drug products currently most needed under PEPFAR. • Inclusion of a subsection that describes the processes for making changes to applications after tentative approval. • Addition of updated descriptions of regulatory requirements and procedures in the main text of the document and deletion of Attachments A, B, and C. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:35 Aug 02, 2023 Jkt 259001 • Addition of updated information, for example, in the section on chemistry, manufacturing, and controls, to be consistent with other guidances for industry released after 2006. This draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA’s good guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when finalized, will represent the current thinking of FDA on ‘‘Fixed-Combinations and SingleEntity Versions of Previously Approved Antiretrovirals for the Treatment or Prevention of HIV–1 Under PEPFAR.’’ It does not establish any rights for any person and 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 draft 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.

SUMMARY: E:\FR\FM\03AUN1.SGM 03AUN1 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 148 / Thursday, August 3, 2023 / Notices FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Amber Sanford, Office of Operations, Food and Drug Administration, Three White Flint North, 10A–12M, 11601 Landsdown St., North Bethesda, MD 20852, 301–796–8867, PRAStaff@ fda.hhs.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. Prior Notice of Imported Food Under the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002—21 CFR 1.278 to 1.285 OMB Control Number 0910–0520— Extension The Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002 (Bioterrorism Act) added section 801(m) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 381(m)), which requires that FDA receive prior notice for food, including food for animals, that is imported or offered for import into the United States. Sections 1.278 to 1.282 of FDA regulations (21 CFR 1.278 to 1.282) set forth the requirements for submitting prior notice; §§ 1.283(d) and 1.285(j) (21 CFR 1.283(d) and 1.285(j)) set forth the procedure for requesting Agency review after FDA has refused admission of an article of food under section 801(m)(1) of the FD&C Act or placed an article of food under hold under section 801(l) of the FD&C Act; and § 1.285(i) sets forth the procedure for post-hold submissions. Section 304 of the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (Pub. L. 111–353) amended section 801(m) of the FD&C Act to require a person submitting prior notice of imported food, including food for animals, to report, in addition to other information already required, ‘‘any country to which the article has been refused entry.’’ Advance notice of imported food allows FDA, with the support of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), to target import inspections more effectively and help protect the nation’s food supply against terrorist acts and other public health emergencies. By requiring that a prior notice contain specific information that indicates prior refusals by any country and identifies the country or countries, the Agency may better identify imported food shipments that may pose safety and security risks to U.S. consumers. This information collection enables FDA to make better informed decisions in managing the potential risks of imported food shipments into the United States. Any person with knowledge of the required information may submit prior notice for an article of food. Thus, the respondents to this information collection may include importers, owners, ultimate consignees, shippers, and carriers. FDA regulations require that prior notice of imported food be submitted electronically using CBP’s Automated Broker Interface of the Automated Commercial Environment (ABI/ACE) (§ 1.280(a)(1)) or the FDA Prior Notice System Interface (PNSI) (Form FDA 3540) (§ 1.280(a)(2)). PNSI is an electronic submission system available on the FDA Industry Systems page at https://www.access.fda.gov. Information the Agency collects in the prior notice submission includes: (1) the submitter and transmitter (if different from the submitter); (2) entry type and CBP identifier; (3) the article of food, including complete FDA product code; (4) the manufacturer, for an article of food no longer in its natural state; (5) the grower, if known, for an article of food that is in its natural state; (6) the FDA Country of Production; (7) the name of any country that has refused entry of the article of food; (8) the shipper, except for food imported by international mail; (9) the country from which the article of food is shipped or, if the food is imported by international mail, the anticipated date of mailing and country from which the food is mailed; (10) the anticipated arrival information or, if the food is imported by international mail, the U.S. recipient; (11) the importer, owner, and ultimate consignee, except for food imported by international mail or transshipped through the United States; (12) the carrier and mode of transportation, except for food imported by 51327 international mail; and (13) planned shipment information, except for food imported by international mail (§ 1.281). Much of the information collected for prior notice is identical to the information collected for FDA importer’s entry notice, which has been approved under OMB control number 0910–0046. The information in an importer’s entry notice is collected electronically via CBP’s ABI/ACE at the same time the respondent files an entry for import with CBP. To avoid doublecounting the burden hours already counted in the importer’s entry notice information collection, the burden hour analysis in table 1 reflects FDA’s estimate of the reduced burden for prior notice submitted through ABI/ACE in column 6 entitled ‘‘Average Burden per Response.’’ In addition to submitting a prior notice, a submitter should cancel a prior notice and must resubmit the information to FDA if information changes after the Agency has confirmed a prior notice submission for review (e.g., if the identity of the manufacturer changes) (§ 1.282). However, changes in the estimated quantity, anticipated arrival information, or planned shipment information do not require resubmission of prior notice after the Agency has confirmed a prior notice submission for review (§ 1.282(a)(1)(i) to (iii)). In the event that FDA refuses admission to an article of food under section 801(m)(1) or the Agency places it under hold under section 801(l) of the FD&C Act, §§ 1.283(d) and 1.285(j) set forth the procedure for requesting FDA’s review and the information required in a request for review. In the event that the Agency places an article of food under hold under § 801(l) of the FD&C Act, § 1.285(i) sets forth the procedure for, and the information to be included in, a post-hold submission. In the Federal Register of February 27, 2023 (88 FR 12366), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. No comments were received. We estimate the burden of this collection of information as follows: ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 TABLE 1—ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN 1 21 CFR section FDA form No. Prior Notice Submissions: Through ABI/ACE. 1.280 through 1.281 .........................

Table 1 reflects the annual estimated reporting burden associated with the information collection. During the next 3 years, we estimate each respondent will need approximately 10 minutes per submission for a total of 15,000,500 annual submissions and 2,505,083.5 rounded up to 2,505,084 annual hours of burden. Similarly, we estimate 13,000 users submitting an average of 231 notices annually, requiring approximately 23 minutes per submission. Cumulatively, this totals 3,003,000 annual responses and 1,153,152 annual hours of burden. Regarding cancellations of prior notices, we estimate 25,000 respondents averaging 1 cancellation annually and requiring 15 minutes to do so. Cumulatively, this totals 25,000 annual submissions and 6,250 annual hours of burden. Similarly, we estimate 50,000 registered users submitting an average of 1 cancellation annually and requiring 15 minutes to do so. Cumulatively, this totals 50,000 annual responses and 12,500 annual hours of burden. We estimate that we will receive one submission annually under § 1.283(d) or § 1.285(j) over the next 3 years. It takes approximately 8 hours to prepare a submission, which results in 8 hours of burden. Finally, for an average of 500 posthold submissions annually, we estimate it will take respondents 1 hour to prepare the written notification described in § 1.285(i)(2)(i), for a total of 500 annual burden hours. Based on our experience and the average number of prior notice VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:35 Aug 02, 2023 Jkt 259001 submissions, cancellations, and requests for review received in the past 3 years, we are adjusting our burden estimate for this information collection by increasing the number of responses and total burden. The number of responses has increased by 3,146,589 responses (from 14,932,412 to 18,079,001). The total burden has increased by 769,918 hours (from 2,907,576 to 3,677,494). We attribute the adjustment to an increase in the number of responses. Dated: July 31, 2023. Lauren K. Roth, Associate Commissioner for Policy.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has 
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for 
review and clearance.

Prior Notice of Imported Food Under the Public Health Security and 
Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002--21 CFR 1.278 to 
1.285

OMB Control Number 0910-0520--Extension

    The Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and 
Response Act of 2002 (Bioterrorism Act) added section 801(m) of the 
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 381(m)), 
which requires that FDA receive prior notice for food, including food 
for animals, that is imported or offered for import into the United 
States. Sections 1.278 to 1.282 of FDA regulations (21 CFR 1.278 to 
1.282) set forth the requirements for submitting prior notice; 
Sec. Sec.  1.283(d) and 1.285(j) (21 CFR 1.283(d) and 1.285(j)) set 
forth the procedure for requesting Agency review after FDA has refused 
admission of an article of food under section 801(m)(1) of the FD&C Act 
or placed an article of food under hold under section 801(l) of the 
FD&C Act; and Sec.  1.285(i) sets forth the procedure for post-hold 
submissions.
    Section 304 of the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (Pub. L. 111-
353) amended section 801(m) of the FD&C Act to require a person 
submitting prior notice of imported food, including food for animals, 
to report, in addition to other information already required, ``any 
country to which the article has been refused entry.'' Advance notice 
of imported food allows FDA, with the support of the U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection (CBP), to target import inspections more effectively 
and help protect the nation's food supply against terrorist acts and 
other public health emergencies. By requiring that a prior notice 
contain specific information that indicates prior refusals by any 
country and identifies the country or countries, the Agency may better 
identify imported food shipments that may pose safety and security 
risks to U.S. consumers.
    This information collection enables FDA to make better informed 
decisions in managing the potential risks of imported food shipments 
into the United States. Any person with knowledge of the required 
information may submit prior notice for an article of food. Thus, the 
respondents to this information collection may include importers, 
owners, ultimate consignees, shippers, and carriers.
    FDA regulations require that prior notice of imported food be 
submitted electronically using CBP's Automated Broker Interface of the 
Automated Commercial Environment (ABI/ACE) (Sec.  1.280(a)(1)) or the 
FDA Prior Notice System Interface (PNSI) (Form FDA 3540) (Sec.  
1.280(a)(2)). PNSI is an electronic submission system available on the 
FDA Industry Systems page at https://www.access.fda.gov. Information 
the Agency collects in the prior notice submission includes: (1) the 
submitter and transmitter (if different from the submitter); (2) entry 
type and CBP identifier; (3) the article of food, including complete 
FDA product code; (4) the manufacturer, for an article of food no 
longer in its natural state; (5) the grower, if known, for an article 
of food that is in its natural state; (6) the FDA Country of 
Production; (7) the name of any country that has refused entry of the 
article of food; (8) the shipper, except for food imported by 
international mail; (9) the country from which the article of food is 
shipped or, if the food is imported by international mail, the 
anticipated date of mailing and country from which the food is mailed; 
(10) the anticipated arrival information or, if the food is imported by 
international mail, the U.S. recipient; (11) the importer, owner, and 
ultimate consignee, except for food imported by international mail or 
transshipped through the United States; (12) the carrier and mode of 
transportation, except for food imported by international mail; and 
(13) planned shipment information, except for food imported by 
international mail (Sec.  1.281).
    Much of the information collected for prior notice is identical to 
the information collected for FDA importer's entry notice, which has 
been approved under OMB control number 0910-0046. The information in an 
importer's entry notice is collected electronically via CBP's ABI/ACE 
at the same time the respondent files an entry for import with CBP. To 
avoid double-counting the burden hours already counted in the 
importer's entry notice information collection, the burden hour 
analysis in table 1 reflects FDA's estimate of the reduced burden for 
prior notice submitted through ABI/ACE in column 6 entitled ``Average 
Burden per Response.''
    In addition to submitting a prior notice, a submitter should cancel 
a prior notice and must resubmit the information to FDA if information 
changes after the Agency has confirmed a prior notice submission for 
review (e.g., if the identity of the manufacturer changes) (Sec.  
1.282). However, changes in the estimated quantity, anticipated arrival 
information, or planned shipment information do not require 
resubmission of prior notice after the Agency has confirmed a prior 
notice submission for review (Sec.  1.282(a)(1)(i) to (iii)). In the 
event that FDA refuses admission to an article of food under section 
801(m)(1) or the Agency places it under hold under section 801(l) of 
the FD&C Act, Sec. Sec.  1.283(d) and 1.285(j) set forth the procedure 
for requesting FDA's review and the information required in a request 
for review. In the event that the Agency places an article of food 
under hold under Sec.  801(l) of the FD&C Act, Sec.  1.285(i) sets 
forth the procedure for, and the information to be included in, a post-
hold submission.
    In the Federal Register of February 27, 2023 (88 FR 12366), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. No comments were received.
    We estimate the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:

\1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.
\2\ To avoid double counting, an estimated 396,416 burden hours already accounted for in the importer's entry notice information collection approved
  under OMB control number 0910-0046 are not included in the total.
\3\ The term ``Form FDA 3540'' refers to the electronic submission system known as PNSI, which is available at https://www.access.fda.gov.

    Table 1 reflects the annual estimated reporting burden associated 
with the information collection. During the next 3 years, we estimate 
each respondent will need approximately 10 minutes per submission for a 
total of 15,000,500 annual submissions and 2,505,083.5 rounded up to 
2,505,084 annual hours of burden. Similarly, we estimate 13,000 users 
submitting an average of 231 notices annually, requiring approximately 
23 minutes per submission. Cumulatively, this totals 3,003,000 annual 
responses and 1,153,152 annual hours of burden.
    Regarding cancellations of prior notices, we estimate 25,000 
respondents averaging 1 cancellation annually and requiring 15 minutes 
to do so. Cumulatively, this totals 25,000 annual submissions and 6,250 
annual hours of burden. Similarly, we estimate 50,000 registered users 
submitting an average of 1 cancellation annually and requiring 15 
minutes to do so. Cumulatively, this totals 50,000 annual responses and 
12,500 annual hours of burden.
    We estimate that we will receive one submission annually under 
Sec.  1.283(d) or Sec.  1.285(j) over the next 3 years. It takes 
approximately 8 hours to prepare a submission, which results in 8 hours 
of burden.
    Finally, for an average of 500 post-hold submissions annually, we 
estimate it will take respondents 1 hour to prepare the written 
notification described in Sec.  1.285(i)(2)(i), for a total of 500 
annual burden hours.
    Based on our experience and the average number of prior notice 
submissions, cancellations, and requests for review received in the 
past 3 years, we are adjusting our burden estimate for this information 
collection by increasing the number of responses and total burden. The 
number of responses has increased by 3,146,589 responses (from 
14,932,412 to 18,079,001). The total burden has increased by 769,918 
hours (from 2,907,576 to 3,677,494). We attribute the adjustment to an 
increase in the number of responses.
