Product Details
If you want to get your combination products to market faster and considering premarket submissions like 510(k), De Novo or premarket approval (PMA), this presentation is for you.
As more combination products are being introduced by devicemakers, the FDA attempted to delineate pathways for the approval of combination products that often necessitate cooperation with the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) and Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH).
Now you must adhere to a wave of legal and regulatory developments CDER and CDRH, assessing and complying with the drug patent and exclusivity provisions that now apply to drug-device combination products.
Three specialists from the FDA and Life Sciences practice of King & Spalding’s Washington, D.C. office are here help you do just that. Chris Markus, Esq. is a partner, Jessica Ringel, Esq. is counsel, and Quynh Hoang is a senior regulatory consultant.
They’ll provide tips for evaluating and addressing the new drug patent and exclusivity provisions. They will guide you on this new, potentially unfamiliar requirement by explaining the process and identifying resources, which can help ensure you’re providing the appropriate responses and information to meet the new requirements and get your products on the way to approval.
Presentation Takeaways:
- Key resources for drug patent and exclusivity information, including the FDA’s Orange Book and other online CDER resources
