Description
A draft guidance document to assist public cord blood banks obtain a biologic license has been published by the FDA, with issuance of the final guidance expected shortly. The publication outlines a mechanism that facilities can use to apply for a cord blood license.

This session will provide some of the background of how far the CB regulations have progressed and what CBB can do today to prepare for publication of the Final Document.

  • Discuss the history and regulatory challenges for public Cord Blood Banks planning to submit a Biologics License Application (BLA) to FDA .
  • Identify the steps that cord blood banks currently need to follow in order to obtain licensure and compare to those in the draft Cord Blood Guidance.
  • Outline a program approach for applying an industry acceptable quality plan.
