Dear Mr. Riordan:
In our approval letter dated December 19, 2003, the approved intended use was incorrectly stated.
Your request to supplement your Biologics License Application (BLA) for Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1/Polymerase Chain Reaction) to allow for an expanded intended use claim to include testing for Source Plasma donors in a mini-pool format of up to 96 donations with single unit resolution testing, has been approved.
Your request for additional indications for testing individual plasma samples from other living donors and organ donors (when specimens are obtained while the donor's heart is still beating) has also been approved
Please correct your files accordingly.
Sincerely yours,
