Proposed Project
National Youth Tobacco Survey 2024–
2026 (OMB Control No. 0920–0621,
Exp. 1/31/2024)—Revision—National
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention
and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC)
Background and Brief Description
Tobacco use is the leading cause of
preventable disease and death in the
United States, and nearly all tobacco use
begins during youth and young
adulthood. A limited number of health
risk behaviors, including tobacco use,
account for the overwhelming majority
of immediate and long-term sources of
morbidity and mortality. Because many
health risk behaviors are established
during adolescence, there is a critical
need for public health programs
directed towards youth, and for
information to support these programs.
Since 2004, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) has
periodically collected information about
tobacco use among adolescents
(National Youth Tobacco Survey
(NYTS) 2004, 2006, 2009, 2011–2023
(OMB Control No. 0920–0621, Exp. 01/
31/2024). This surveillance activity
builds on previous surveys funded by
the American Legacy Foundation in
1999, 2000, and 2002. At present, the
NYTS is the most comprehensive source
of nationally representative tobaccorelated data among students in grades
9–12, moreover, the NYTS is the only
source of such data for students in
grades 6–8. The NYTS has provided
national estimates of tobacco use
behaviors, information about exposure
to pro- and anti-tobacco influences, and
information about tobacco-related racial
and ethnic disparities. Information
collected through the NYTS is used to
identify trends over time, to inform the
development of tobacco cessation
programs for youth, and to evaluate the
effectiveness of existing interventions
and programs.
CDC plans to request OMB approval
to conduct additional cycles of the
NYTS in 2024, 2025, and 2026. The
survey will be conducted among
nationally representative samples of
students attending public and private
schools in grades 6–12. The survey will
be digital, web-based, self-administered,
and will be taken on school or personal
computers, tablets, or mobile devices.
Information supporting the NYTS also
will be collected from state-, district-,
and school-level administrators and
teachers. During the 2024–2026
timeframe, changes will be incorporated
that reflect CDC’s ongoing collaboration
with FDA and the need to measure
progress toward meeting strategic goals
established by the Family Smoking
Prevention and Tobacco Control Act.
Information collection will occur
annually and may include a number of
new questions, as well as increased
representation of minority youth.
The survey will examine the
following topics: Use of e-cigarettes,
cigarettes, cigars, smokeless tobacco,
hookahs, roll-your-own cigarettes,
pipes, snus, dissolvable tobacco, bidis,
heated tobacco products, and nicotine
pouches; knowledge and attitudes;
media and advertising; access to tobacco
products and enforcement of restrictions
on access; secondhand smoke and ecigarette aerosol exposure; social
determinants of health such as family/
household affluence; provision of
school- and community-based
interventions, and cessation.
Results of the NYTS will continue to
be used to inform and evaluate the
National Comprehensive Tobacco
Control Program, provide data to inform
the Department of Health and Human
Service’s Tobacco Control Strategic
Action Plan, and provide national
benchmark data for state-level Youth
Tobacco Surveys. Information collected
through the NYTS also is expected to
provide multiple measures and data for
monitoring progress on seven tobaccorelated objectives for Healthy People
2030.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 22,086 annual burden hours
over each of the next three years. There
are no costs to respondents other than
their time to participate.

ACTION: Request for comment.
AGENCY:
The National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), in the

comment on two draft reevaluations
with initial recommendations to change

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NIOSH
seeks public comments on its
reevaluations with initial
recommendations to change the status
of two drugs, pertuzumab and
liraglutide, on the NIOSH List of
Antineoplastic and Other Hazardous
Drugs in Healthcare Settings (the List).
The NIOSH reevaluations were
conducted based on the process
described in the NIOSH Procedures for
Developing the NIOSH List of
Hazardous Drugs in Healthcare Settings,
available at https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/
docs/2016-161/.
NIOSH reevaluated the placement of
pertuzumab on the NIOSH List in
response to a request for reevaluation
from the manufacturer. Based on this
reevaluation, the initial NIOSH
recommendation is to remove
pertuzumab from the NIOSH List. In its
reevaluation NIOSH determined that,
due to the intrinsic molecular properties
of pertuzumab and the nature of the
specific hazard posed by exposure to
pertuzumab, it is not likely to pose a
hazard to workers in healthcare settings.
The potential adverse health effect
relevant to pertuzumab occupational
exposure is the increased potential for
fetal developmental abnormalities due
to oligohydramnios during pregnancy
[FDA 2012]. However, the development
of oligohydramnios during pregnancy is
reversible and would require repeated
exposures to pertuzumab that are high
enough to cause oligohydramnios
through the relevant period of
development. Pertuzumab has limited
dermal, oral, and inhalation
bioavailability due to its intrinsic
molecular properties. Repeated
unintended exposures resulting from
needlestick injuries at levels high
enough to result in sustained
oligohydramnios is unlikely. For these
reasons, pertuzumab is not expected to
pose a hazard to workers in healthcare
workplaces.
NIOSH reevaluated the placement of
liraglutide on the NIOSH List in
response to a request for reevaluation
from the manufacturer. Based on this
reevaluation, the initial NIOSH
recommendation is to remove
PO 00000
Frm 00033

Sfmt 4703
liraglutide from the NIOSH List. In its
reevaluation NIOSH determined that,
due to the intrinsic molecular properties
of liraglutide and the nature of the
specific hazard posed by exposure to
liraglutide, it is not likely to pose a
hazard to workers in healthcare settings.
In animal studies liraglutide was
reported to cause C-cell specific thyroid
tumors [FDA 2009]. This carcinogenic
effect was due to mitogenic activity, and
the progression required continued
liraglutide exposure. The relevance of Ccell specific thyroid tumor formation in
response to liraglutide exposure to
humans is unknown but cannot be ruled
out. Potential fetal developmental
abnormalities are also seen in some
animal studies, and there may be risk to
the fetus in pregnant patients. However,
the intrinsic molecular properties of the
liraglutide peptide greatly decrease
dermal, oral, and inhalation
bioavailability, and the hazards related
to liraglutide exposure would require
repeated needlestick injuries. Systemic
exposures in workplaces are not likely
to reach levels required for the potential
adverse effects to pose a hazard.
In addition to providing the
opportunity for public comment, NIOSH
is conducting external peer review of its
reevaluations. NIOSH has completed the
peer review of pertuzumab and will
conduct the peer review of liraglutide
concurrently with the public review.
The charges to the public and peer
reviewers are provided below.
Public and Peer Review Charge for the
Reevaluation of Pertuzumab on the
NIOSH List of Hazardous Drugs
The manufacturer’s request to
reevaluate the inclusion of pertuzumab
on the NIOSH List proposed that
pertuzumab does not present a potential
hazard to healthcare worker exposures
because the properties of the drug limit
the potential for exposure and therefore
adverse health effects from that
exposure. NIOSH developed a scenario
for worker exposure to pertuzumab to
evaluate this proposal. Based on this
scenario NIOSH determined that
pertuzumab does not meet the NIOSH
definition of a hazardous drug and
recommends that it be removed from the
List. Please review the NIOSH
reevaluation of pertuzumab and
consider the following questions.
1. Is this an appropriate method for
evaluating the potential for exposure to
pertuzumab?
2. Is oligohydramnios the best health
effect to evaluate? If not, what other
health effect(s) should be evaluated and
why?
