received, OMB recommends that written comments be faxed to the Office 
of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer, 
Fax: 202-395-7285, or emailed to [email protected]. All

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.

Guidance for Industry and Review Staff on Target Product Profile--A 
Strategic Development Process Tool; OMB Control Number 0910-NEW

    This information collection request supports the above-captioned 
Agency guidance. The draft guidance is intended to provide sponsors and 
FDA review staff with information regarding target product profiles 
(TPPs). A TPP can be prepared by a sponsor and then shared voluntarily 
with the appropriate FDA review staff to facilitate communication 
regarding a particular drug development program. The TPP is based on a 
template that provides a summary of drug labeling concepts to focus 
discussions and aid in the understanding between sponsors and FDA. The 
resulting TPP is a format for a summary of a drug development program 
described in terms of labeling concepts. With the TPP, a sponsor 
specifies the labeling concepts that are the goals of the drug 
development program, documents the specific studies that are intended 
to support the labeling concepts, and then uses the TPP to assist in a 
constructive dialogue with FDA. The draft guidance describes the 
purpose of a TPP, its advantages, and its optimal use. It also provides 
information on how to complete a TPP and relates case studies that 
demonstrate a TPP's usefulness.
    Sponsors are not required to submit a TPP. The TPP does not 
represent an implicit or explicit obligation on the sponsor's part to 
pursue all stated goals. Submission of a TPP summary does not constrain 
the sponsor to submit draft labeling in a new drug application (NDA) or 
biologics license application (BLA) that is identical to the TPP. The 
TPP is part of the proprietary investigational new drug application 
(IND) file.
    The TPP is organized according to the key sections of the drug 
labeling and links drug development activities to specific concepts 
intended for inclusion in the drug labeling. The TPP is not a long 
summary. Generally, the TPP is shorter than the ultimate annotated 
draft labeling because it captures only a summary of the drug 
development activities and labeling concepts. Early TPPs can be brief 
depending on the status of the drug's development process.
    The Target Product Profile Template in Appendix C of the draft 
guidance details the suggested information to be included in each 
section of the TPP. The TPP includes information from each discipline 
comprising an NDA/BLA. Within each discipline, the TPP briefly 
summarizes the specific studies that will supply the evidence for each 
conclusion that is a labeling concept. A TPP is organized according to 
key sections in the drug's labeling. Typical key sections are:

 Indications and Usage
 Dosage and Administration
 Dosage Forms and Strengths
 Contraindications
 Warnings and Precautions
 Adverse Reactions
 Drug Interactions
 Use in Specific Populations
 Drug Abuse and Dependence
 Overdosage
 Description
 Clinical Pharmacology
 Nonclinical Toxicology
 Clinical Studies
 References
 How Supplied/Storage and Handling
 Patient Counseling Information

    In the Federal Register of January 5, 2016 (81 FR 240), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. No comments were received.
    FDA estimates the burden of the information collection as follows:

    Description of Respondents: Sponsors of applications seeking FDA 
approval to perform clinical investigations of a human drug before 
applying for marketing approval of the drug from FDA.
    Burden Estimate: FDA estimates that sponsors of approximately 10 
percent of the number of active INDs submitted to FDA annually would 
prepare and submit TPPs. According to our records, this equals 
approximately 132 TPPs per year. Based on data received from the 
Pharmaceutical Research and

[[Page 51850]]

Manufacturers of America, we estimate that approximately 20 sponsors 
would submit TPPs and that each submission would take approximately 20 
hours to prepare. This information is reflected in table 1.
