Summary
This three day course provides you with knowledge of regulatory affairs in relation to drug/device combination products. You learn how to handle the questions that arise in the development process of combination products and the input required to be part of the strategy.
Focus is on EU and US regulations, and we review the new EU legislation in relation to combination products (EU-MDR).
In addition, you get insights into the approval of medical devices for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) and approval of combination products containing software. Finally, you get an understanding of the development and risk analysis of medical devices in combination products.
After the course, you will be able to offer your colleagues regulatory strategic advice in development projects, to collect relevant and sufficient documentation, and to search for relevant regulations in this area.
Other course participants say
"I got great value of the course and it was highly relevant to our company."
