Evolving Regulatory Pathways for Medical Devices
In recent years, the FDA has finalized several medical device guidance documents that could dramatically impact the regulatory pathways available to medical device manufacturers. Are manufacturers effectively taking advantage of these new options, for example, by leveraging non-traditional data sources, like real world evidence or patient preference information, for regulatory purposes? Are the new options making the regulatory process more efficient for manufacturers and FDA? Has FDA’s decision-making process been impacted by the new options?
