Description
This guidance provides you, establishments that make donor eligibility (DE) determinations for donors of human cells, tissues, and cellular and tissue-based products (HCT/Ps), with information on infectious-disease risks related to receipt of FDA licensed human-derived clotting factor concentrates (HDCFCs). This guidance explains that FDA no longer considers FDA licensed HDCFCs as a risk factor for Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Hepatitis B virus (HBV), or Hepatitis C virus (HCV). As such, receipt of FDA licensed HDCFCs, or sex with a person who has received FDA licensed HDCFCs, should not be considered a risk factor when determining eligibility of a donor of HCT/Ps. This guidance supplements the recommendations regarding HDCFCs that are contained in the guidance entitled “Eligibility Determination for Donors of Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Products (HCT/Ps); Guidance for Industry” dated August 2007 (August 2007 Guidance).
