This information collection supports FDA regulations regarding investigational new drug applications. The IND requirements provide the means by which FDA can: (a) monitor the safety of ongoing clinical investigations; (b) determine whether the clinical testing of a drug should be authorized; (c) ensure production of reliable data on the metabolism and pharmacological action of the drug in humans; (d) obtain timely information on adverse reactions to the drug; (e) obtain information on side effects associated with increasing doses; (f) obtain information on the drug's effectiveness; (g) ensure the design of well-controlled, scientifically valid studies; and (h) obtain other information pertinent to determining whether clinical testing should be continued and information related to the protection of human subjects.
The information collection reflects program changes and adjustments. We have revised the information collection to account for burden that may be incurred by respondents who choose to adopt or implement recommendations discussed in referenced agency guidance documents. We have also removed burden we attribute to information collection activity under part 312, subpart I: Expanded Access to Investigational Drugs for Treatment Use, as we are accounting for this in OMB control number 0910-0814, currently undergoing renewal. As a result of these changes and adjustments, the information collection reflects a decrease in annual responses and an increase in annual hours.
