Using the Pre-Submission Process to Your Best Advantage

Overview:

This webinar will provide a detailed discussion of understanding the scope of the pre-submission process, what information to provide in a pre-submission, how to prepare for a pre-submission interaction with FDA and how to follow up with FDA following a pre-submission interaction. To do this it will primarily reference the guidance document on pre-submissions recently finalized and issued by FDA earlier this year.

In this webinar we will discuss recent FDA observations in the laboratory and how this knowledge can be used in the laboratory to prevent or reduce regulatory observations in the future.

Why should you Attend: You should attend because using the pre-submission process is an increasingly essential and critical component of any US marketing application for a medical device. Therefore, it is important to know how to best use the pre-submission process to effectively obtain feedback from FDA's Office of Device Evaluation on proposed testing for any medical device to be commercialized in the US. Effective use of the pre-submission process will allow companies to know and understand FDA's expectations regarding their medical device before submitting a marketing application.

Areas Covered in the Session:

  • Understanding the scope of the pre-submission process
  • What information to provide in a pre-submission
  • How to prepare for a pre-submission interaction with FDA
  • How to follow up with FDA following a pre-submission interaction

Who Will Benefit:
  • Regulatory Affairs Professionals
  • All companies developing manufacturing and marketing medical devices in the US
