Postmarketing Information Sharing Among Constituent Part Applicants for 
Combination Products--21 CFR 4.103

OMB Control Number 0910-0834--Extension

    This information collection request applies to ``constituent part 
applicants'' as defined under 21 CFR 4.101 (i.e., any person holding an 
application under which a constituent part (drug, device, or biological 
product) of a combination product received marketing authorization if 
the other constituent part(s) received marketing authorization under an 
application held by a different person). Under this collection, 
constituent part applicants must share safety information they receive 
related to certain events with the other constituent part applicant(s) 
and maintain associated records.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The Postmarketing Safety Reporting (PMSR) information 
collections for drugs, biological products, and devices found in 
Sec. Sec.  314.80, 314.81, 600.80, 600.81, 606.170, 606.171, 803.50, 
803.53, 803.56, 806.10, and 806.20 (21 CFR 314.80, 314.81, 600.80, 
600.81, 606.170, 606.171, 803.50, 803.53, 803.56, 806.10, and 
806.20) have already been approved and are in effect or their 
extension is being sought separately as required, including with 
respect to burden for combination products (reflected in the 
authorization for OMB control number 0910-0834, but, therefore, not 
addressed in this extension request). The pertinent PMSR information 
collection provisions for Sec.  314.80(c) and (e), as well as for 
Sec.  314.81(b) are approved under OMB control numbers 0910-0001, 
0910-0230, and 0910-0291. The information collection provisions for 
Sec. Sec.  600.80 and 600.81 are approved under OMB control number 
0910-0308. Those for Sec.  606.170 are approved under OMB control 
number 0910-0116. Those for Sec.  606.171 are approved under OMB 
control number 0910-0458. The information collection provisions for 
Sec. Sec.  803.50, 803.53, and 803.56 are approved under OMB control 
numbers 0910-0291 and 0910-0437. The information collection 
provisions for Sec. Sec.  806.10 and 806.20 are approved under OMB 
control number 0910-0359.

    In the Federal Register of April 30, 2020 (85 FR 23971), we 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. No comments were received.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:

    Based on a review of the information collection since our last 
request for OMB approval, we have made no adjustments to our burden 
estimate. We note in this regard that FDA extended the compliance date 
for 21 CFR part 4, subpart B, until July 2020 for most combination 
products, and until January 2021 for the remainder, in response to 
stakeholder feedback, to ensure that Combination Product Applicants 
have sufficient time to update reporting and recordkeeping systems and 
procedures.\2\ Consequently, entities subject to this rule have not yet 
had to comply with this information request.

Safety Reporting (April 2019) (https://www.fda.gov/regulatory-information/search-fda-guidance-documents/compliance-policy-combination-product-postmarketing-safety-reporting).
