I. Background

In the

Federal Register

of September 19, 2000 (65 FR 56468), FDA's issued its final rule on GGPs (21 CFR 10.115). GGPs are intended to ensure involvement of the public in the development of guidance documents and to enhance understanding of the availability, nature, and legal effect of such guidance documents.

As part of FDA's effort to ensure meaningful interaction with the public regarding guidance documents, the agency committed to publishing an annual guidance document agenda of possible guidance topics or documents for development or revision during the coming year. The agency also committed to soliciting public input regarding these and additional ideas for new topics or revisions to existing guidance documents (65 FR 56477; 21 CFR 10.115(f)(5)).

The agency is neither bound by this list of possible topics nor required to issue every guidance document on this list or precluded from issuing guidance documents not on the list set forth in this document.

The following list of guidance topics or documents represents possible new topics or revisions to existing guidance documents that the agency is considering. The agency solicits comments on the topics listed in this document and also seeks additional ideas from the public.

The guidance documents are organized by the issuing Center or Office within FDA, and, in some cases, are further grouped by topic categories. The agency's contact persons for each specific area are listed in the tables that follow.
