The Public Health Service Act and FDA regulations require manufacturers to submit a license application for review and approval prior to marketing a biological product in interstate commerce. In addition, applicants must submit to FDA advertising and promotional labeling. Manufacturers or applicants or are also required to submit changes, including labeling, changes to an approved application, as well as advertising and promotional labeling changes. The information submitted to FDA in a biologics license application, supplement to an approved application, or other similar submission is used to determine if a product is safe, effective, and not misbranded under prescribed, recommended, or suggested conditions of use. The regulations also describe the types of postmarketing studies (PMS) that require status reports, the information to be included in the reports, and the type of information that FDA would consider appropriate for public disclosure. FDA uses the information submitted from PMS reports to meet its reporting obligations under section 506B of the Food Drug & Cosmetic Act and section 130(b) of the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act.

FDA’s estimated burden for the information collection reflects an overall increase of 105,867 hours and a decrease of 2,649 responses. We attribute this adjustment to an increase in the number of submissions we have received under 21 CFR 601.12(f)(4) and 601.45, and 21 CFR 601.12(b)(1), (b)(3), and (e) over the last few years. We attribute the decrease in responses to a decrease in responses received under 21 CFR 601.12(a)(5) and 601.27(b) over the last few years. Also, while we have consolidated the IC elements as they appear at omb.report., we have retained the itemized burden table in Question 12 as included in our Federal Register notices.
