With the growth of Personalized Medicine and the rapid pace of targeted therapies, the drug development process often relies on a Companion Diagnostic (CoDx). The FDA defines a CoDx as an in vitro diagnostic medical device that provides information deemed essential for the safe and effective use of a corresponding drug or biological product. The CoDx helps health care professionals determine if a potential therapy’s benefits outweigh the risks for an individual patient. Importantly, most new targeted therapies will not be approved by the FDA without a CoDx. Come learn key considerations for the development and regulatory approval of CoDx technologies.
Program Summary:
This talk will provide an overview of crucial CoDx product development and regulatory information to provide a systematic and successful approval process, including:
Historical perspective of Companion Diagnostics
Defining Companion and Complementary Diagnostics
The importance of FDA’s term “contemporaneous development”
Understanding the FDA: Drug and Device Regulatory timelines
Defining the right Regulatory strategy
How to prepare for and leverage FDA meetings on CoDx
The 3 most important take-aways for successful CoDx strategy
