Abstract: The information collection supports agency regulations governing the use of radioactive drugs for basic scientific research. Under 21 U.S.C. section 361.1(d)(7), no basic research study involving any administration of a radioactive drug to research subjects is permitted without the authorization of an FDA approved Radioactive Drug Research Committee (RDRC). The purpose of this collection of information is to determine whether the research studies are being conducted in accordance with required regulations and that human subject safety is assured. If these studies were not reviewed, human subjects could be subjected to inappropriate radiation or pharmacologic risks.
