Applicants would categorize the status of each postmarketing study using one of the following terms that describe the study's status on the U.S. anniversary date of approval of the application or other agreed date: a. Most of the information contained in these reports is different from the information submitted to the IND and is used by the agency for different purposes. 356b)). Description of postmarketing study commitment. The study is behind the original schedule described under paragraph (b)(7) of this section. Please refer to your biologics license application (BLA) dated and received April 23, 2021, and your amendments, submitted under section 351(a) of the Public Health Service Act for SUSVIMO. Based upon information obtained from the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research's computerized application and license tracking data base, the agency estimates that approximately 33 applicants with 43 approved BLA's have committed to conduct approximately 86 postmarketing studies (clinical safety, clinical efficacy, clinical pharmacology, and nonclinical toxicology) and would be required to submit an annual progress report on those postmarketing studies under 601.70. (a) Content of status report. L. 105-115, 111 Stat. FDA will not disclose any information from postmarketing study reports that is considered a trade secret as defined in 20.61(a) and section 301(j) of the act (21 U.S.C. These tools are designed to help you understand the official document It is FDA's intent to minimize the reporting burden on industry by requiring only a single annual report for any NDA, ANDA, or BLA product. The agency is committed to harmonizing its reporting requirements for drugs and biologics as much as possible. (Comment 8) One comment said that FDA should set some reasonable limit on how far back in time it will require applicants to report on studies that they committed to conduct years before enactment of section 130 of FDAMA but that still remain open. 15 U.S.C. The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal The agency will use these status reports to review the progress of postmarketing study commitments and to meet its statutory reporting obligations (i.e., its report to Congress on this topic by October 1, 2001, and its annual report in the Federal Register on the status of postmarketing study commitments). 4.1. 7. This final rule also amends part 601 to require applicants with licensed biological products to submit a separate annual report that describes the status of certain postmarketing studies (601.70). The https:// ensures that you are connecting to the official website and that any information you provide is encrypted and transmitted securely.

Manufacturing sites (only if they meet current cGMP status and have an acceptable FDA compliance status), Manufacturing process, batch size, and equipment. Applicants holding NDA's, ANDA's, and BLA's whose anniversary date of U.S. approval of the application falls within the latter half of the year after the effective date of this final rule are required under section 506B of the act to submit an initial report to FDA for postmarketing studies committed to be conducted prior to November 21, 1997, within 6 months after the effective date of the final rule in addition to the reports required by the final rule. New 314.81(b)(2)(vii) expressly requires status information to be provided in a specific format as part of the status reports of postmarketing study commitments (clinical safety, clinical efficacy, clinical pharmacology, and nonclinical toxicology), a subpart of the annual report. The marked-up copy should provide appropriate annotations, including supplement number(s) and annual report date(s). c. Delayed. If the FDA disagrees with an applicants determination that the type of change does not comply with the regulatory listings or the appendix, they will notify the applicant upon review of the AR. 601-612) (as amended by subtitle D of the Small Business Regulatory Fairness Act of 1966 (Public Law 104-121)), and the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Public Law 104-4). 2. 355 note). 6/8/2023. Any applicant that has committed to conduct a postmarketing study for a drug or biological product that is approved for marketing must submit to FDA a report on the progress of the study or the reasons for the failure of the applicant to conduct the study. For the most recent version of a guidance, check the FDA Guidance Documents Database https://www.fda.gov/RegulatoryInformation/Guidances/default.htm. To document changes in an annual report, the applicant must include the following information for each change: The applicant should describe each change in an annual report in enough detail to allow the Agency to evaluate the change and determine whether the appropriate reporting category has been used. Section 202 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act requires that agencies prepare a written statement of anticipated costs and benefits and before proposing any rule that may result in an expenditure by State, local, and tribal governments, in the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100 million (adjusted annually for inflation) in any one year. To help applicants comply with the requirements of this final rule, the agency is developing a guidance for industry entitled Reports on the Status of Postmarketing StudiesImplementation of section 130 of the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act of 1997. FDA intends to make a draft of this guidance available shortly after publication of this final rule. If a study has been completed but the final study report has not been submitted to FDA, the date the study was completed would be provided. The study is proceeding according to or ahead of the original schedule described under paragraph (b)(7) of this section. As with applicants holding NDA's or ANDA's, a few applicants with licensed biological products with outstanding postmarketing study commitments may also incur an additional, one-time cost because they must submit their initial report within the first 6 months after the effective date of the final rule and an annual report within the last 6 months of the year. In addition, under 314.81(b)(2)(viii), applicants with approved NDA's and ANDA's must provide status reports for any postmarketing study not reported under 314.81(b)(2)(vii) (e.g., chemistry, manufacturing, controls, product stability). Applicants would provide such information to FDA in status reports, and, under section 130 of FDAMA, patient accrual rates would be considered to be public information. Current 314.81(b)(2) requires that NDA annual reports be submitted to the agency within 60 days of the anniversary date of approval of the application. The comment noted that it submits annual reports based on the anniversary date of the study initiation rather than the anniversary date of U.S. approval. +h]Yd:LA:W\ When the U.S. FDA published Guidance for Industry: COVID-19 Container Closure System and Component Changes: Glass Vials and Stoppers Guidance in March 2021, it opened the door for regulatory relief for certain post-approval changes (1). FDA would not publicly disclose in its annual Federal Register report or website information concerning postmarketing study commitments submitted in NDA annual reports under 314.81(b)(2)(viii) and 314.81(b)(2)(ix). FDA published a proposed rule in the Federal Register of December 1, 1999 (64 FR 67207), that would revise the requirements for annual postmarketing status reports for drug and biological products, and that would require applicants to submit annual status reports for certain postmarketing studies of licensed biological products.

The agency is amending 314.81(b)(2)(vii) to specify information that must be included in status reports submitted under section 506B of the act (studies of clinical safety, clinical efficacy, clinical pharmacology, and nonclinical toxicology that are required by FDA or that an applicant commits, in writing, to conduct either at the time of approval of an application or a supplement to an application or after approval of an application or supplement). The proposed rule described the types of postmarketing studies covered by these status reports, the information to be included in the reports, and the type of information that FDA would consider appropriate for public disclosure. The list of examples does not contain the number of patients and/or subjects to be included in the study. However, an applicant is required to include patient accrual information (by providing the number of patients or subjects enrolled to date and the total planned enrollment) in the section requiring an explanation of the study's status. When they are submitted in support of a supplement, FDA will review the submission under established review times for supplements.

The status summary should include expected summary completion and final report submission dates, any changes in plans since the last annual report, and, for clinical studies/trials, number of patients entered into each study/trial. Draft. 5. Under this section, FDA will not publicly disclose trade secrets, as defined in 20.61 of this chapter, or information, described in 20.63 of this chapter, the disclosure of which would constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. Based on comments received, the FDA updated the guidance with additional manufacturing examples and made editorial changes to improve clarity.. For example, the comment noted that applicants must provide detailed information on a postmarketing study commitment regarding the purpose of the study, the patient population addressed by the study, the indication and dosage(s) that are to be studied, the projected dates for initiation of the different phases of the study and completion of the study, the status of patient accrual, as well as an explanation of the study's status (which would be categorized separately). Many drug and licensed biological products have multiple postmarketing studies underway that were initiated on different dates. Provide a brief description of the status of the study, including the patient accrual rate (expressed by providing the number of patients or subjects enrolled to date, and the total planned enrollment), and an explanation of the study's status identified under paragraph (b)(8) of this section. Each identified risk is 2.1. Except for the information described in this paragraph, FDA may publicly disclose any information concerning a postmarketing study, within the meaning of this section, if the agency determines that the information is necessary to identify an applicant or to establish the status of the study including the reasons, if any, for failure to conduct, complete, and report the study.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) last month altered and finalized a 2014 draft guidance explaining what information needs to be provided in annual reports for medical devices subject to premarket approval (PMA). FDA is including clinical safety and efficacy and clinical pharmacology studies within the scope of this rule because these types of studies provide the most relevant and useful additional information about the risks, benefits, and optimal use of an approved drug or licensed biological product. 321, 351, 352, 353, 355, 356b, 360, 360c-360f, 360h-360j, 371, 374, 379e, 381; 42 U.S.C. LockA locked padlock FDA also is including nonclinical toxicology studies within the scope of this rule, although such studies are not performed on human subjects, because they are important to the further evaluation of the safety of a marketed drug or biological product. d. Terminated. Secure .gov websites use HTTPS One comment said that even though current 314.81(b)(2)(vii) requires status reports for any postmarketing study, existing regulation and guidance have previously established a more narrow definition of the CMC reporting requirement.

This is a one-time burden required under new 314.81(b)(2)(vii). (Comment 6) One comment said that the agency needs to clarify that public disclosure does not apply to chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (CMC) studies. What Constitutes Good Cause for Noncompliance with PostMarketing Study Requirements? The comment explained that current 314.81(b)(2)(iv) states that reports for CMC changes are only required for new information that may affect FDA's previous conclusions about the safety or effectiveness of the drug product and that the guidance for industry on Format and Content for the CMC section of an Annual Report specifies only the need to include stability data under current 314.81(b)(2)(vii). hbspt.forms.create({ This includes sites for testing of lower-risk process-related impurities (e.g., host cell proteins, host cell DNA, residual solvents) when the method was successfully validated at the new site and the new site, where applicable, meets relevant CGMP requirements for the type of operation involved (e.g., no outstanding FDA warning letters or official action indicated compliance status). hao6 3. 1905). This guidance provides recommendations to holders of biologics license applications (BLAs) for specified biological products regarding the types of changes to an approved BLA to be documented. This section applies to all required postmarketing studies (e.g., accelerated approval clinical benefit studies, pediatric studies) and postmarketing studies that an applicant has committed, in writing, to conduct either at the time of approval of an application or a supplement to an application, or after approval of an application or a supplement. This report should describe the overall status of the information security program and the institution's compliance with these Guidelines.
