What to include in Traditional 510(k) Filing for Medical Devices

BayBiotech.NET
A 510k is a premarket submission made to FDA to demonstrate that a medical device to be marketed is at least as safe and effective, that is, substantially equivalent, to a legally marketed device.
A Traditional 510(k) submission must include the required elements as per 21 CFR 807.87 (Information required in a premarket notification submission):
 the name of device, (the trade or proprietary name), if any, and the common or usual name or classification name of the device.
 description of the device, include device specifications and reference applicable guidance documents, special controls, or standards; photographs or engineering drawings should be supplied, if applicable.
 comparison with a predicate device(s), indicating similarities and/or differences accompanied by data, as appropriate; this information may include an identification of materials, design considerations, energy expected to be used or delivered by the device, and a description of the operational principles of the device.
 intended use of the device,
 proposed label, labeling, and advertisements for the device and directions for use.
 Information on sterilization, biocompatibility, expiration date, etc., if applicable.
Important elements of a Traditional 510(k) filing include:
• Medical Device User Fee Cover Sheet (Form FDA 3601).
• CDRH Premarket Review Submission Cover Sheet
• Certification of Compliance with ClinicalTrials.gov Data Bank, FDA-3674
• Cover letter
• Table of Contents (recommended)
• Indications for Use
• 510(k) Summary (21 CFR 807.92) or 510(k) Statement (21 CFR 807.93)
• Standards Data Report for 510(K) s - FDA 3654. Submit this form if your 510(k) references a national or international standard.
• Truthful and Accuracy Statement (21 CFR 807.87(k))
• Class III Certification and Summary for Class III devices (21 CFR 807.94)

Group C (Treatment IND) Drugs

BayBiotech.NET Since 1976, National Cancer Institute (NCI) in agreement with FDA has established the Group C classification system to allow access to certain drugs for the cancer patients specifically falling under a category that adequate alternative therapy or if the available alternative therapy has significant toxic effects. Each Group C drug protocol specifies patient eligibility and drug use information. Group C drugs are provided only to properly trained physicians who have registered themselves with NCI using a special form to assure that their patient qualifies under guidelines - or protocols - for the drug. Physicians using drugs under Group C have no reporting requirements to the NCI other than the obligation to report adverse drug reactions. Group C drugs are provided free of charge, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services provides coverage for care associated with Group C therapy. Making Group C drugs available to the critically ill patients not only provi...

Harmonization by Doing (HBD): Japan & U.S. Collaboration

BayBiotech.NET HBD is an international cooperative effort by Japan and US for regulatory convergence for Medical Devices. The efforts are focused on to develop global clinical trials and address regulatory barriers for timely device approvals. To address the needs for additional evaluation, the HBD initiative is a pilot project launched jointly by FDA and MHLW-PMDA for the premarket review of device cardiovascular technology. Instead of taking a theoretical approach to harmonization, HBD is focused on Proof of concept by utilizing parallel development, application submissions and review of actual medical device projects. HBD Study intends to collect and analyze regulatory submission data from multiple applications in the U.S. and Japan. The purpose of the study is to further understand differences that may exist with format and content, to define best practices and to improve globally harmonized processes.
