AGENCY:

Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION:

Notice; correction.

SUMMARY:

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is correcting a document that appeared in the Federal Register on March 11, 2020. The document announced that FDA will begin supporting the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC) for Study Data Tabulation Model version 1.8 (SDTM v1.8), and CDISC Standard for Exchange of Nonclinical Data Implementation Guide—Animal Rule version 1.0 (SENDIG-AR v1.0) on March 15, 2020, and that these new standards will be required in submissions to FDA effective March 15, 2022. The document omitted the 36-month implementation period for certain investigational new drugs applications (INDs) as required by the guidance for industry entitled “Providing Regulatory Submissions in Electronic Format—Standardized Study Data” which is referenced in that document. This document corrects that error.
