| 2011-30449 | Draft Guidance for Industry: Use of Nucleic Acid Tests on Pooled and Individual Samples From Donors of Whole Blood and Blood Components, Including Source Plasma, to Reduce the Risk of Transmission of Hepatitis B Virus | Notice | The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the availability of a draft document entitled "Guidance for Industry: Use of Nucleic Acid Tests (NAT) on Pooled and Individual Samples from Donors of Whole Blood and Blood Components (including Recovered Plasma, Source Plasma and Source Leukocytes) to Adequately and Appropriately Reduce the Risk of Transmission of Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), and Requalification of Donors Who Test HBV NAT Positive," dated November 2011. The draft guidance document provides recommendations on the use of FDA-licensed nucleic acid tests (NAT) to screen blood donors for hepatitis B virus (HBV) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and recommendations for product testing and disposition, donor management, methods for donor requalification, and product labeling. In addition, the draft guidance provides notification that FDA considers the use of an FDA- licensed HBV NAT to be necessary to reduce adequately and appropriately the risk of transmission of HBV. The guidance is intended for blood establishments that collect Whole Blood and blood components for transfusion or for further manufacture, including recovered plasma, Source Plasma and Source Leukocytes. The draft guidance, when finalized, is intended to supplement previous memoranda and guidance from FDA concerning the testing of donations for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc), and the management of donors and units mentioned in those documents. | 2011-11-28 | 2011 | 11 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2011/11/28/2011-30449/draft-guidance-for-industry-use-of-nucleic-acid-tests-on-pooled-and-individual-samples-from-donors | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2011-11-28/pdf/2011-30449.pdf | Health and Human Services Department; Food and Drug Administration | 221,199 | The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the availability of a draft document entitled "Guidance for Industry: Use of Nucleic Acid Tests (NAT) on Pooled and Individual Samples from Donors of Whole Blood and Blood Components (including... |
