David Lim Seminar on FDA 510ks and PMAs

How to Format Succinct and Comprehensive 510(k)s and PMAs | 2 Day Seminar | Research Triangle, NC | April 9, 2015 and April 10, 2015 

Overview 

 This seminar will discuss the 510(k) and PMA submissions and will walk you through how to format a succinct and comprehensive 510(k) and premarket approval (PMA) application to increase submission quality and to proactively facilitate the review process in a streamlined manner. 

Detailed Information 

Background: 

A premarket notification [510(k)] is the most common pathway to market for medical devices. Premarket approval (PMA) is the FDA’s most stringent, scientific and regulatory review process to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Class III medical devices. The 510(k) premarket submission is made to demonstrate that the subject device (to be marketed) is substantially equivalent (as least as safe and effective) to a legally marketed device (predicate device) as described in 21 CFR 807.92(a)(3). A recent FDA draft guidance document suggests that more 510(k) submissions be required to meet the regulatory requirements. In addition, FDA issued a draft guidance document, proposing significant changes in the 510(k) program to be implemented in the near future. Class III devices requiring PMA approval under section 515 of the FD&C Act in order to obtain marketing clearance are those that support or sustain human life, are of substantial importance in preventing impairment of human health, or which present a potential, unreasonable risk of illness or injury. Due to the level of risk associated with Class III devices, FDA has determined that general and special controls alone are insufficient to assure the safety and effectiveness of class III devices. Under the PMA process per 21 CFR 860.7(d)(1), each manufacturer must independently demonstrate reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of its device for its intended use. 

Why Should You Attend: 

It is imperative that medical device industry quickly recognize the recent changes in the 510(k) process, and understand and adapt to the recent changes/requirements discussed in recent guidance documents including those (e.g., clinical trials) pertaining to premarket approval (PMA) so that the review process can be facilitated in a proactive and streamlined manner. 

This seminar will discuss the 510(k) and PMA submissions and will walk you through how to format a succinct and comprehensive 510(k) and premarket approval (PMA) application to increase submission quality and to proactively facilitate the review process in a streamlined manner.
