Agency Information Collection Request; 60-Day Public Comment Request, 66010-66011 [2023-20865]

Download as PDF 66010 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 185 / Tuesday, September 26, 2023 / Notices lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 In response to recommendations made by FDA in GFI #213,1 as part of a strategy to address antimicrobial resistance associated with the use of antimicrobial drugs in animal agriculture, sponsors of all NADAs and ANADAs for antimicrobial drugs important to human medicine (medically important antimicrobial drugs) approved for use in or on the feed or in the drinking water of foodproducing animals worked with FDA over a 3-year period from 2013 to 2016 to voluntarily withdraw approval of indications that were not considered necessary for ensuring animal health (production indications). In response to FDA recommendations made in GFI #263,2 sponsors also voluntarily worked with FDA to change the marketing status of all remaining approved uses of such new animal drugs from over-thecounter (OTC) to either by veterinary prescription (Rx) or by veterinary feed directive, as applicable. In September 2016, FDA announced that it intended to enter the next phase of its efforts to mitigate antimicrobial resistance by focusing on medically important antimicrobials used in animal feed or water that have at least one therapeutic indication without a defined duration of use. In a notice published in the Federal Register of September 14, 2016 (81 FR 63187), the Agency requested comments from the public about how to establish appropriately targeted durations of use for therapeutic products within the scope of GFI #213 with no currently defined duration of use. Public feedback received in response to that request for information was taken into consideration during subsequent development of a concept paper released in 2021. On September 14, 2018, FDA released a 5-year action plan for supporting antimicrobial stewardship in veterinary settings.3 This plan includes an action item intended ‘‘to ensure that all medically important antimicrobial drugs used in the feed or drinking water of 1 See GFI #213, ‘‘New Animal Drugs and New Animal Drug Combination Products Administered in or on Medicated Feed or Drinking Water of FoodProducing Animals: Recommendations for Drug Sponsors for Voluntarily Aligning Product Use Conditions with GFI #209,’’ December 2013. (https://www.fda.gov/media/83488/download) 2 See GFI #263, ‘‘Recommendations for Sponsors of Medically Important Antimicrobial Drugs Approved for Use in Animals to Voluntarily Bring Under Veterinary Oversight All Products That Continue to be Available Over-the-Counter,’’ June 2021. (https://www.fda.gov/media/130610/ download) 3 See FDA’s 5-year action plan entitled ‘‘Supporting Antimicrobial Stewardship in Veterinary Settings: Goals for Fiscal Years 2019– 2023.’’ (https://www.fda.gov/media/115776/ download) VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:18 Sep 25, 2023 Jkt 259001 food-producing animals have an appropriately targeted duration of use.’’ 4 In a notice published in the Federal Register of January 11, 2021 (86 FR 1979), FDA requested comments from the public on a concept paper that outlined a potential framework for how sponsors of NADAs and ANADAs for products containing medically important antimicrobial drugs approved for use in or on the feed of foodproducing animals could voluntarily work with FDA to change the approved conditions of use of these drugs to establish appropriately defined durations of use for those indications that currently have an undefined duration of use. The concept paper generated invaluable public comment; FDA considered all information and feedback received on the concept paper as it developed this draft guidance. This level 1 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 ‘‘Defining Durations of Use for Approved Medically Important Antimicrobial Drugs Fed to Food-Producing Animals.’’ 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 guidance contains no collection of information, it does refer to previously approved FDA collections of information. The previously approved collections of information are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501–3521). The collections of information in section 512(n)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 360b(n)(1)) have been approved under OMB control number 0910–0669. The collections of information in 21 CFR part 514 have been approved under OMB control number 0910–0032. III.
