{"abstract":"The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the availability of a document entitled \"Guidance for Industry: Biologics License Applications for Minimally Manipulated, Unrelated Allogeneic Placental/Umbilical Cord Blood Intended for Hematopoietic and Immunologic Reconstitution in Patients With Disorders Affecting the Hematopoietic System\" dated March 2014. The guidance document provides recommendations for manufacturers, generally cord blood banks, to apply for licensure of minimally manipulated, unrelated allogeneic placental/ umbilical cord blood, for hematopoietic and immunologic reconstitution in patients with disorders affecting the hematopoietic system that are inherited, acquired, or result from myeloablative treatment. The guidance document is intended to assist manufacturers in obtaining a biologics license. The guidance contains information about the manufacture of minimally manipulated, unrelated allogeneic placental/ umbilical cord blood and how to comply with applicable regulatory requirements. The guidance announced in this document finalizes the draft guidance of the same title dated June 2013 and supersedes the guidance entitled \"Guidance for Industry: Minimally Manipulated, Unrelated, Allogeneic Placental/Umbilical Cord Blood Intended for Hematopoietic Reconstitution for Specified Indications\" dated October 2009.","action":"Notice.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES","name":"Health and Human Services Department","id":221,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/health-and-human-services-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/221","parent_id":null,"slug":"health-and-human-services-department"},{"raw_name":"Food and Drug Administration","name":"Food and Drug Administration","id":199,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/food-and-drug-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/199","parent_id":221,"slug":"food-and-drug-administration"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2014/03/05/2014-04813.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"79 FR 12508","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Submit either electronic or written comments on Agency guidances at any time.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["Docket No. FDA-2006-D-0157"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2014-04813","effective_on":null,"end_page":12509,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2014/03/05/2014-04813.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2014/03/05/2014-04813/guidance-for-industry-biologics-license-applications-for-minimally-manipulated-unrelated-allogeneic","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2014-04813?publication_date=2014-03-05","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2014-03-05/2014-04813/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":2,"page_views":{"count":264,"last_updated":"2026-08-24 18:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2014-03-05/pdf/2014-04813.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2014-04813.pdf?1393941279","publication_date":"2014-03-05","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2014/03/05/2014-04813.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[],"comments_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/docketBrowser?rpp=50&so=DESC&sb=postedDate&po=0&dct=PS&D=FDA-2006-D-0157","supporting_documents_count":337941,"docket_id":"FDA-2006-D-0157","regulation_id_number":null,"title":"Guidance for Industry: Minimally Manipulated, Unrelated, Allogeneic Placental/Umbilical Cord Blood Intended for Hematopoietic Reconstitution in Patients with Hematological Malignancies","checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2014-03-25T08:10:29Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":12508,"subtype":null,"title":"Guidance for Industry: Biologics License Applications for Minimally Manipulated, Unrelated Allogeneic Placental/Umbilical Cord Blood Intended for Hematopoietic and Immunologic Reconstitution in Patients With Disorders Affecting the Hematopoietic System; Availability","toc_doc":"Biologics License Applications for Minimally Manipulated, Unrelated Allogeneic Placental/Umbilical Cord Blood, etc.","toc_subject":"Guidance for Industry and Staff:","topics":[],"type":"Notice","volume":79}
