<body>
<p>FDA intends to issue a proposed rule to classify Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA), Human Platelet Antigen (HPA), and Human Neutrophil Antigen (HNA) devices as a group of devices with each device having its own product code.&nbsp; FDA is proposing to classify HLA, HPA, and HNA devices into class II (special controls).&nbsp; FDA is also proposing to identify special controls for HLA, HPA, and HNA devices that are necessary to provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness.&nbsp; The proposed rule would include the recommendations of the Blood Products Advisory Committee regarding the classification of these devices.</p>
