FDA PRE-SUBMISSIONS
The US Food and Drug Agency (FDA) strongly recommends Pre-Submission process to request feedback on PMA applications, HDE applications, de novo petitions, and 510(k) Submissions, as well as to address questions related to whether a clinical study requires submission of an IDE. The program was known as the pre-IDE process to provide feedback on future IDE applications prior to their submissions. The scope of this program was extended to provide feedback on pre-market submissions. These included providing advice to industry during the developmental stages of IDE, 510(k), PMA, HDE, IND and BLA submissions. AltaQ will work with you to develop, submit, coordinate responses, and attend meetings as necessary.
