Type Comments Regulatory
Review
Product Classes
510(k) = Premarket Notification
Substantially equivalent (“at least as safe & effective as a legally marketed/predicate device”)
90 days Class II generally
510(k)/de novo Petition
Low to moderate risk; novel device. 510(k) must conclude NSE bec no predicate device. Product has to be shown to be safe & effective.
?? Class I/II
PMA = Premarket Approval
Reasonable assurance of safety & effectiveness based on valid scientific evidence
180 days
Class III
HDE = Humanitarian Device Exemption
For humanitarian use device (<4000 persons in US/year). Evidence of safety and probable benefit. Requires IRB approval for each use. ~75 HDEs approved by FDA
75 days
Class III

New Processes
• Refuse to Accept Policy for 510(k)s – RTA
31 Dec 2012
• eCopy Program for Medical Device Submissions
10 Oct 2013
Page 17 | 2013 |Copyright Qserve Group B.V.
New – RTA Key Points
Purpose: Administrative Review
To assure complete submissions - question of ‘completeness’ (administrative)
and not ‘quality of data’ (substantive).
FDA checklist
Provides specific information point-by-point of the elements/contents that are
considered ‘incomplete’.
15 calendar day post-submission review period
90-day substantive review clock starts on a determination of ‘completeness’.
Date will be the log-in date if no issues.
If there are issues & the RTA checklist is sent to applicant, the 90-day review
clock will not start until those have been resolved.

New – eCopy (1)
• Definition: Exact duplicate of paper copy, created and submitted on a CD, DVD or
flash drive. It is not a submission transmitted electronically.
Some exceptions regarding ‘exact duplicate’
• Required for:
510(k)
PMA, traditional and modular
De Novo
PDP
IDE, with certain exceptions (compassionate use & emergency use)
Page 19 | 2013 |Copyright Qserve Group B.V.
New – eCopy (2)
• Requirements:
Technical standards for loading the file must be met (no exceptions) Particularly
important:
Naming convention (‘correct’ prefix: “001_”)
» Follow instructions closely with more than 1 volume
Files must be 50MB or smaller
Adobe Acrobat PDF Ver 11 or below
No embedded attachments
No security settings
Beware of special characters
Page 20 | 2013 |Copyright Qserve Group B.V.
New – eCopy (3)
Consequences of incorrectly prepared eCopy: Submission will not be accepted
and the date of receipt will not be the ‘log-in’ date.
However, FDA will hold the paper copy until a correctly-created
replacement eCopy has been received & loaded.

Submission Changes/Updates
• De Novo Classification Process (Evaluation of Automatic Class III
Designation): Draft Guidance, 3 Oct 2011 (to replace a 1998 guidance)
• Medical Devices: The Pre-Submission Program and Meetings with FDA
Staff: Draft Guidance 13 July 2012 (includes Pre-IDE Program)
Page 22 | 2013 |Copyright Qserve Group B.V.
Changes – De Novo Process (1)
• Authorization: 513(f)(2) of US Federal Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) –
passed in 1997, FDA Modernization Act (FDAMA)
• Prior to 1997 all new devices, regardless of risk level, would have been
classified in Class III and require PMA.
• De Novo = “Evaluation of Automatic Class III Designation”
• Requirements for qualifying for de novo:
Low to moderate risk medical device
Novel (no predicate device/not previously classified)
NSE (not substantially equivalent) determination by FDA via 510(k), e.g ‘auto
classification into Class III’
File De Novo Petition
Page 23 | 2013 |Copyright Qserve Group B.V.
Changes – De Novo Process (2)
• Additional requirements to a successful petition
Risks & benefits need to be understood
‘Controls’ need to be possible to provide reasonable assurance of safety & effectiveness of the
device ‘type’
Those controls often include the conduct of clinical studies.
• Good news if the new guidance is fully implemented: It provides for greater clarity &
transparency, in particular:
Pre de novo submission (PDS) >> 510(k)/De Novo Petition,
vs the ‘standard’:
510(k) >> De Novo Petition
90 de novo petitions granted to date.
Page 24 | 2013 |Copyright Qserve Group B.V.
Changes – Pre-Sub (Encompasses Pre-IDE)
• Process that formalizes obtaining FDA’s pre-review for:
Non-clinical (laboratory & animal) protocol
Clinical protocol/design issues, prior to submitting an IDE
Pre-marketing submission interactions on a variety of topics (such as
uncertainty in method of presenting data, changes in device during IDE
study, discussion of problems encountered during conduct of clin study)
• Specified format & content requirements
• Timeline = 75-90 days
• Feedback via teleconference, face-to-face meeting or written
(always receive written comments)
Page 25 | 2013 |Copyright Qserve Group B.V.
New – Unique Device Identifier (UDI) System
Implementation of US FD&C Act §519(f) (Sept, 2013).
Two key elements:
(1) Requires a UDI on devices & device packages (w/ some exceptions)
Must be marked on the device itself if the device is intended for use more than
once & intended for reprocessing before each use.
(2) Device labelers – info for each device labeled with UDI to FDA’s Global UDI
Database (GUDID).
Plain-text version & in a form that uses automatic ID & data capture tech.
All required device records must include the UDI.
7-year phase-in period (depending on risk level).
Page 26 | 2013 |Copyright Qserve Group B.V.
New – International Symbols
• Currently – Medical Device Labeling (except for IVD) must accompany
international symbols with ‘words’.
• Under consideration (proposed Rule) – Option on part of medical device
manufacturers to use standardized international symbols (recognized by FDA)
on labeling.
Page 27 | 2013 |Copyright Qserve Group B.V.
• Mission: Single audit program for medical device manufacturers
• Sponsored by International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF)
• January 2014 - FDA will begin participating in a MDSAP Pilot alongside other
international partner agencies:
• Partners: Australia, Brazil, Canada
• Observer: Japan
• Pilot (Jan 2014 – Dec 2016) – auditing organizations: only those utilized by
Health Canada’s CMDCAS Program.
• MDSAP for FDA:
• routine inspections only
• no ‘for cause’, no PMA (pre- or post-approval)
