*Federal Register* notice: FDA has announced a timetable for updates to the FDA Data Standards Catalog for study data submitted electronically in NDAs, ANDAs, BLAs and certain INDs. The initial implementation timetable for submitting standardized study data in electronic format was 24 months for NDAs, ANDAs, and applications, and 36 months for certain INDs after publication of the final guidance “Providing Regulatory Submissions in Electronic Format — Standardized Study” in 12/2014\. When future updates to study data standards listed in the catalog occur, these updated standards will be required in studies with a start date no earlier than 12 months after a *Federal Register* notice announcing such updates is published.
