SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    In the Federal Register of September 19, 2000 (65 FR 56468), FDA 
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 56468 at 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 within the 
issuing Center or Office by topic categories.
