By Stage of Medical Device Development

Clinical Development

Concept & Feasibility Analyze prototype and concept design Preclinical Development Evaluation of biocompatibility and safety. Analytical validation Clinical Development Assess safety and effectiveness and gather data for registration and market access           Market Approval Assemble and file an application Commercialization & Post-Market Mitigate risk and remain compliant

Assess safety and effectiveness and gather data for registration and market access.

The main objective of clinical development is to evaluate the medical device risk/benefit balance during pivotal clinical studies and hence further substantiate the labeling claims. The product is tested in patient populations, and ideally compared with the therapeutic gold standard or direct competitor.

Health economics data are also gathered, to prepare for demonstrating the product’s value to payers.

Stage of development: challenges

Challenges

  • How to obtain endorsement from regulators and payers on the late-stage clinical development strategy?
  • Which clinical endpoints would address both regulators’ and payers’ requirements?
  • How to articulate medical device development across multiple geographies?
  • How to communicate the product value to different stakeholders?
  • What must be done for launch readiness and access?
  • Will clinical data be robust enough to support market clearance in international markets?
  • How to develop the product value dossier?
