FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Domini Bean, Office of Operations, Food and Drug Administration, Three White Flint North, 10A-12M, 11601 Landsdown St., North Bethesda, MD 20852, 301-796-5733, *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. Postmarketing Safety Reports for Human Drug and Biological Products: Waivers From Electronic Submission Requirements OMB Control Number 0910-0770—Extension This information collection supports information collection found in FDA regulations. In the **Federal Register** of June 10, 2014 (79 FR 33072), FDA published a final rule entitled “Postmarketing Safety Reports for Human Drug and Biological Products: Electronic Submission Requirements.” The final rule amended FDA's postmarketing safety reporting regulations for human drug and biological products under 21 CFR parts 310, 314, and 600 and added part 329 to require that persons subject to mandatory reporting requirements submit safety reports in an electronic format that FDA can process, review, and archive. Specifically, this includes: • Manufacturers; packers; distributors; applicants with approved new drug applications, abbreviated new drug applications, and biologics licensing applications (BLAs); and those that market prescription drugs for human use without an approved application must submit postmarketing safety reports to the Agency (§§ 310.305, 314.80, 314.98, and 600.80); • manufacturers, packers, or distributors whose name appears on the label of nonprescription human drug products marketed without an approved application must report serious adverse events associated with their products (section 760 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 379aa)); and • applicants with approved BLAs must submit biological lot distribution reports to the Agency (§ 600.81). Under §§ 310.305(e)(2), 314.80(g)(2), 329.100(c)(2), 600.80(h)(2), and 600.81(b)(2), of the regulations, those who are subject to these postmarketing safety reporting requirements may request a waiver from the electronic format requirement. While FDA currently has OMB approval for the collection of postmarketing safety reports, 1 this information collection supports respondents seeking waivers from submitting those reports in electronic format as required by the regulations. 1 FDA currently has OMB approval for submission of postmarketing safety reports under parts 310, 314, and 600. The information collection for parts 310 and 314 is approved under OMB Control Numbers 0910-0291 and 0910-0230. The information collection for part 600 is approved under OMB Control Numbers 0910-0291 and 0910-0308. Submissions required by section 760 of the FD&C Act have been approved under OMB Control Number 0910-0636. In the **Federal Register** of October 30, 2017 (82 FR 50141), we published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed extension of this collection of information. No comments were received in response to the notice. We therefore estimate the burden of this collection of information as follows: Table 1—Estimated Annual Reporting Burden 1 21 CFR section Number of respondents Number of responses per respondent Total annual responses Average burden per response Total hours 310.305(e)(2) 1 1 1 1 1 314.80(g)(2) 5 1 5 1 5 329.100(c)(2) 1 1 1 1 1 600.80(h)(2) 5 1 5 1 5 600.81(b)(2) 1 1 1 1 1 Total 13 1 There are no capital or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. In table 1, we estimate the burden associated with the submission of waiver requests for postmarketing safety reports in electronic format under §§ 310.305(e)(2), 314.80(g)(2), 329.100(c)(2), 600.80(h)(2), and 600.81(b)(2). We expect few waiver requests. We estimate only one manufacturer will request a waiver annually under §§ 310.305(e)(2), 329.100(c)(2), and 600.81(b)(2), and approximately five manufacturers will request waivers annually under §§ 314.80(g)(2) and 600.80(h)(2). We estimate that each waiver request takes 1 hour to prepare and submit. The burden for this information collection has not increased since the last collection. Dated: February 5, 2018.
