Source: 69 FR 68686, Nov. 24, 2004, unless otherwise noted.
The provisions set forth in this subpart are being implemented for nonreproductive HCT/Ps described in §1271.10 and regulated solely under section 361 of the Public Health Service Act and the regulations in this part, and for the establishments that manufacture those HCT/Ps. HCT/Ps that are drugs or devices regulated under the act, or are biological products regulated under section 351 of the Public Health Service Act, are not subject to the regulations set forth in this subpart. (a) Adverse reaction reports. (1) You must investigate any adverse reaction involving a communicable disease related to an HCT/P that you made available for distribution. You must report to FDA an adverse reaction involving a communicable disease if it: (i) Is fatal; (ii) Is life-threatening; (iii) Results in permanent impairment of a body function or permanent damage to body structure; or (iv) Necessitates medical or surgical intervention, including hospitalization. (2) You must submit each report on a Form FDA–3500A to the address in paragraph (a)(5) of this section within 15 calendar days of initial receipt of the information. (3) You must, as soon as practical, investigate all adverse reactions that are the subject of these 15-day reports and must submit followup reports within 15 calendar days of the receipt of new information or as requested by FDA. If additional information is not obtainable, a followup report may be required that describes briefly the steps taken to seek additional information and the reasons why it could not be obtained. (4) You may obtain copies of the reporting form (FDA–3500A) from the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (see address in paragraph (a)(5) of this section). Electronic Form FDA–3500A may be obtained at http://www.fda.gov/medwatch or at http://www.hhs.gov/forms. (5) You must submit two copies of each report described in this paragraph to the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (HFM–210), Food and Drug Administration, 1401 Rockville Pike, suite 200N, Rockville, MD 20852–1448. FDA may waive the requirement for the second copy in appropriate circumstances. (b) Reports of HCT/P deviations. (1) You must investigate all HCT/P deviations related to a distributed HCT/P for which you performed a manufacturing step. (2) You must report any such HCT/P deviation relating to the core CGTP requirements, if the HCT/P deviation occurred in your facility or in a facility that performed a manufacturing step for you under contract, agreement, or other arrangement. Each report must contain a description of the HCT/P deviation, information relevant to the event and the manufacture of the HCT/P involved, and information on all follow-up actions that have been or will be taken in response to the HCT/P deviation (e.g., recalls). (3) You must report each such HCT/P deviation that relates to a core CGTP requirement on Form FDA–3486 available at http://www.fda.gov/cber/biodev/bpdrform.pdf, within 45 days of the discovery of the event either electronically at http://www.fda.gov/cber/biodev/biodevsub.htm or by mail to the Director, Office of Compliance and Biologics Quality, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (HFM–600), 1401 Rockville Pike, suite 200N, Rockville, MD 20852–1448. The following requirements apply in addition to §§1271.55, 1271.60, 1271.65, and 1271.90: (a) You must label each HCT/P made available for distribution clearly and accurately. (b) The following information must appear on the HCT/P label: (1) Distinct identification code affixed to the HCT/P container, and assigned in accordance with §1271.290(c); (2) Description of the type of HCT/P; (3) Expiration date, if any; and (4) Warnings required under §1271.60(d)(2), §1271.65(b)(2), or §1271.90(b), if applicable and physically possible. If it is not physically possible to include these warnings on the label, the warnings must, instead, accompany the HCT/P. (c) The following information must either appear on the HCT/P label or accompany the HCT/P: (1) Name and address of the establishment that determines that the HCT/P meets release criteria and makes the HCT/P available for distribution; (2) Storage temperature; (3) Other warnings, where appropriate; and (4) Instructions for use when related to the prevention of the introduction, transmission, or spread of communicable diseases.
