FAQs • Regulatory Pathway? 510(k) or PMA? 510(k) with clinical data • Will my submission go to Panel? Maybe. These are first of a kind devices, and 510(k)s can go to Panel. - New questions of S&E? - Quality/strength of data collected?
FAQs (cont. ) • Is a RCT needed? No, but there should be an appropriate control and data should be recent. • Can I use OUS Data? Yes, some but not all. OUS patient population and medical practice should compare to US. • What endpoints should we study? Include an assessment of both safety and effectiveness.
Safety and Effectiveness • Safety: – emboli caused by the device? – risk for perforation, dissection • Effectiveness: preventing stroke – Imaging: DW-MRI – Neurocognitive measurements for clinical sequelae Use an appropriate control
Pre-clinical Testing • Risk-based analysis • Coronary and Carotid EPD Guidance (2008) – can be a good starting point – geared towards filter and balloon type devices – Not all testing may apply AND may not cover all testing necessary RISK ANALYSIS!
