SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    On December 17, 2014, FDA published final guidance for industry 
``Providing Regulatory Submissions in Electronic Format--Standardized 
Study Data'' (eStudy Data) posted on FDA's Study Data Standards 
Resources Web page at http://www.fda.gov/forindustry/datastandards/studydatastandards/default.htm. The eStudy Data guidance implements the 
electronic submission requirements of section 745A(a) of the Federal 
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 379k-1(a)) for study data 
contained in new drug applications, abbreviated new drug applications, 
biologics license applications, and investigational new drug 
applications submitted to CDER or CBER by specifying the format for 
electronic submissions. The eStudy Data guidance states that a Federal 
Register notice will specify the transition date for updates to 
standards (with the month and day for the transition date corresponding 
to March 15).
    The transition date for the end of FDA support for Define.xml 
Version 1.0 is March 15, 2017. Therefore, FDA support for Define.xml 
Version 1.0 will end for studies that start after March 15, 2018. The 
FDA Data Standards Catalog (see http://www.fda.gov/forindustry/datastandards/studydatastandards/default.htm) will be updated to list 
March 15, 2018, as the ``date support ends.''

II. Electronic Access

material at http://www.fda.gov/forindustry/datastandards/studydatastandards/default.htm.
