Abstract: The Stem Cell Therapeutic and Research Act of 2005 (Public Law 109-129, December 20, 2005) as amended and codified in Section 379A of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 247l), provides for the collection and maintenance of human blood stem cells for the treatment of patients and research. The Public Health Service Act requires the Secretary of HHS to contract for the establishment and maintenance of information related to patients who have received stem cell therapeutic products and to do so using an electronic format. HRSA has established the Stem Cell Therapeutic Outcomes Database (SCTOD), a component of the C.W. Bill Young Cell Transplantation Program (Program), which necessitates certain electronic record-keeping and reporting requirements to perform functions related to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) under contract to HHS. Data are collected from transplant centers by the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research. They are used for ongoing analysis of transplant outcomes to improve treatment and survival for patients who may benefit from cellular therapies.

ICR Summary of Burden

	Total Request	Previously Approved	Change Due to New Statute	Change Due to Agency Discretion	Change Due to Adjustment in Estimate	Change Due to Potential Violation of the PRA
Annual Number of Responses	95,808	75,101	0	20,707	0	0
Annual Time Burden (Hours)	73,070	75,101	0	-2,031	0	0

Burden increases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Increase Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: The number of responses increased because the number of transplant centers SCTOD collects from was increased to 182 from 178. Total burden hours for pre-transplant collection increased because average burden increased. Over time, there is an expected increase in the number of recipients for whom data are reported, as the number of transplants performed annually increases and survivorship after transplantation improves. The total burden declined because average burden per response for Transplant Procedure and Product information decreased.
