Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 164 / Friday, August 25, 2023 / Notices
withdrawal of approval is warranted
because the required post-approval
confirmatory trial failed to verify
clinical benefit and because available
evidence demonstrates PEPAXTO is not
shown to be safe or effective under its
conditions of use. The Oncologic Drugs
Advisory Committee (ODAC) convened
on September 22, 2022, to discuss issues
related to this proposed withdrawal.
The ODAC voted 14 to 2 that the
benefit-risk profile of melphalan
flufenamide was not favorable for the
currently indicated patient population.
For additional background, please refer
to CDER’s letter to Oncopeptides Re:
Section 506(c)(3)(B) Notice of Proposed
Withdrawal of Approval; PEPAXTO
(melphalan flufenamide) for injection;
NDA 214383 (‘‘Notice to Oncopeptides
of Proposed Withdrawal of PEPAXTO’’)
and CDER’s Proposed Withdrawal of
PEPAXTO Decisional Memorandum,
available at Docket No. FDA–2023–N–
3167, https://www.regulations.gov.

II. Legal Standard for Withdrawal of
Approval
Section 506(c) of the FD&C Act, as
amended most recently by the
Consolidated Appropriations Act of
2023 (Pub. L. 117–328), describes the
accelerated approval of new drug
applications and the procedures and
authority governing expedited
withdrawal of approval. FDA has the
legal authority to use the expedited
procedures to withdraw approval of a
product that has received accelerated
approval if, among other reasons, ‘‘a
study required to verify and describe the
predicted effect on irreversible
morbidity or mortality or other clinical
benefit of the product fails to verify and
describe such effect or benefit’’ (section
506(c)(3)(A)(ii) of the FD&C Act) or
‘‘other evidence demonstrates that the
product is not shown to be safe or
effective under the conditions of use.’’
(section 506(c)(3)(A)(iii) of the FD&C
Act.)
III. Explanation for the Proposed
Withdrawal
CDER proposes to withdraw approval
of PEPAXTO because the required
confirmatory study, Trial OP–103, also
known as OCEAN, failed to verify
clinical benefit and because available
evidence demonstrates PEPAXTO is not
shown to be safe or effective under its
conditions of use. More specifically, the
results failed to show that PEPAXTO
had a significant effect on the primary
endpoint of progression-free survival.
Furthermore, the observed median
Act of 2023 (Pub. L. 117–328); see also 21 CFR
314.510.

Jkt 259001
overall survival was 5.3 months shorter
in the PEPAXTO arm compared to the
control arm. After considering all the
available data and the discussion at the
ODAC held in September 2022, CDER
recommends withdrawing the
accelerated approval for PEPAXTO.
Please refer to CDER’s ‘‘Notice to
Oncopeptides of Proposed Withdrawal
of PEPAXTO’’ and ‘‘Proposed
Withdrawal of PEPAXTO Decisional
Memorandum’’ for additional
explanation.
IV. Opportunity for Public Comment on
CDER’s Proposal To Withdraw
Approval of PEPAXTO
In accordance with the expedited
withdrawal of approval procedures
described in section 506(c)(3)(B)(ii) and
(iii) of the FD&C Act, CDER is providing
an opportunity for public comment on
its proposal to withdraw approval of
NDA 214383 (PEPAXTO) through the
issuance of a Federal Register Notice.
FDA will consider any such public
comments it receives in making its
decision on CDER’s proposal to
withdraw approval of NDA 214383
(PEPAXTO) and make available on its
website and in the public docket a
summary of such comments and FDA’s
response to them.

In compliance with the

(OMB). Prior to submitting the ICR to
OMB, HRSA seeks comments from the
public regarding the burden estimate,
below, or any other aspect of the ICR.
DATES: Comments on this ICR should be
received no later than October 24, 2023.

Information Collection Request Title:
Standardized Work Plan (SWP) Form for
Use with Applications to the Bureau of
Health Workforce (BHW) Research and
Training Grants and Cooperative
Agreements OMB No. 0906–0049—
Extension.
Abstract: BHW requires applicants for
training and research grants and
cooperative agreements to submit work
plans via the SWP form. Information in
the SWP describes the timeframes and
progress required during the grant
period of performance to address each
of the needs detailed in the Purpose and
Need section of the application, as
required in the Notice of Funding
Opportunity announcement. Applicants
use the SWP form when they submit
their proposals, and award recipients
and Project Officers use the SWP
information to assist in monitoring
progress once HRSA makes the awards.
After awards are made, recipients
complete a Quarterly Progress Update
(QPU) to provide information to BHW
on a quarterly basis on each activity
listed in the SWP.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: Information collected by
the SWP form and QPUs standardizes
and streamlines the data used by HRSA
in reviewing applications and
monitoring awardees. The form asks
applicants to provide a description of
the activities or steps the applicant will
take to achieve each of the objectives
proposed during the entire period of
performance. The current standardized
format and data submission by
applicants increases efficiency in
reviewing, awarding, and monitoring
each project.
The QPU is completed via HRSA’s
Electronic Handbook system and
E:\FR\FM\25AUN1.SGM
25AUN1
58285
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 164 / Friday, August 25, 2023 / Notices
prompts recipients to report on progress
of activities that were submitted using
the SWP in the original application. The
QPU automatically populates activities
from the recipient’s SWP form on a
quarterly basis. For each activity listed
in the submitted SWP for any particular
quarter within the project period,
recipients select and submit a single
selection response for each activity
status from a pull-down menu with five
options: Activity is on Schedule,
Activity is Complete, Timing is off
track, Activity will be missed if action
is not taken, and Activity cannot be
achieved. Information provided is
utilized by the program staff to regularly
assess overall progress of program
requirements and analyze data in order
to monitor award recipient compliance
and track progress against proposed
targets and goals. Information gathered
allows an improved and more efficient
method for identifying whether projects’
goals are being advanced or achieved, as
set forth in 45 CFR 75.342. Program staff
also use information provided over the
period of performance to see emerging
trends and to assess whether an award
recipient requires technical assistance to
address challenges that the award
recipient may be experiencing with the
implementation of the project. Seeking
OMB extension approval comports with
the regulatory requirement imposed by
45 CFR 75.206(a), Paperwork clearances.
Likely Respondents: Respondents are
applicants for, and recipients of, BHW’s
research and training grants and
cooperative agreements.
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.

proposed information collection for the
proper performance of the agency’s
functions; (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4) the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology to minimize the information
collection burden.
