Title: Big Changes to ISO 10993-1, What is Happening to the Main Biocompatibility Standard Now?

In 2018, TC194, the ISO committee for biocompatibility, released a new version of 10993-1. This new version focused more on a risk-based approach and made significant changes. Then in 2021, a radical proposal to update the standard again was issued with a new draft of the standard. We are now more than a year into writing and compromising the draft of this crucial standard. In this talk we will go into the latest on the standard that is being changed, the reasoning behind those changes, and possible future acceptance of the standard around the globe.

Title: Cobalt-60: Investing for the Future of Gamma Sterilization

Gamma sterilization has been the predominant radiation sterilization modality for decades and accounts for more than 30% of all single-use medical device sterilization globally. Gamma sterilization relies on the ongoing supply of Cobalt-60 to the global market. In this session, you will learn how Cobalt-60 is produced, and get updated information on efforts underway in the global supply chain to not only expand production to meet growing demand but also improve utilization of this critical resource. The presentation will also include a discussion on the sustainability of Cobalt-60 and gamma sterilization.

Title: Updates & Trends: Learn about the Most Recent Biocompatibility and Reprocessing Updates to Standards

10:30 am to 12:30 pm
Title: Updates on Biocompatibility Standard Changes, What is Happening With 10993-1, 5, 10, 12, 17, 18, and 23.

Over the past decade, biocompatibility standards have been constantly evolving. In recent years, we have witnessed the introduction of a new standard (10993-23), significant updates to existing ones (10993-12 and 10993-18), as well as the development of new drafts (10993-17) and active working groups that are working on making further changes (10993-1 and -5). During this talk, we will review these standards and discuss the modifications that have already been implemented, as well as those that are currently being proposed. Attendees will gain comprehensive knowledge of the latest biocompatibility standards and understand how they should be applied when submitting regulatory documents.

Presenter: Thor Rollins
Vice President, Global Market Segment Leader—Medical Device

12:30 pm to 1:30 pm
Title: Updates on Reprocessing Validations for Reusable Medical Devices

As reusable medical devices continue to advance, the validations used to evaluate the reprocessing (cleaning, disinfection, and/or sterilization) procedures have had to advance as well. These advancements have resulted in numerous standards and guidance documents being either updated or created to ensure that reusable medical devices can be safely reprocessed. This presentation will discuss these changes as found in documents such as AAMI ST98, AAMI TIR12, ISO 17664, as well as others. Additionally, this presentation will discuss how these changes impact new and already completed reprocessing validations for reusable medical devices.

FDA Guidance: Drug Approval

Posted on by Joby Semmler

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has released an updated draft for the life science industry regarding communicating directly with health care professionals. This FDA guidance draft will go to industry for comment and feedback with the long term goal of streamlining the FDA regulatory process.

 

A specific use case mentioned in the FDA guidance is how HCPs use scientific information about unapproved uses (SIUU) for approved/cleared medical products. From the pharmaceutical or medical device perspective, are life science companies providing this scientific information in the context of clinical decision making? For example, are there off label uses of the FDA approved treatment for patients that may be going under investigated for both efficacy or compliance?

 

Scientific Information on Unapproved Uses (SIUU)

 

Particularly, this FDA guidance targets life science firms and how companies are sharing specific approval drug communications for medical products. Further, the following types of communications with HCPs were specifically mentioned by the Food and Drug Administration:

 

  • Published scientific or medical journal articles (reprints)
  • Published clinical reference resources:
    • Clinical practice guidelines (CPGs)
    • Scientific or medical reference texts (reference texts)
    • Materials from independent clinical practice resources
  • Firm-generated presentations of scientific information from an accompanying published reprint

 

Clinical Drug Trials

 

The FDA guidance speaks consistently to the delivery and context of medical trials data. Further, scientific information from clinical trials for approved products should be truthful, non-misleading, factual, and unbiased. The clinical research center should be in good standing from an FDA compliance perspective as well. 

 

Finally, there is a legal responsibility for industry employees to communicate information that is generally regarded as safe. Those who communicate unapproved indications or create medical labeling should not be associated with different types of unresearched clinical outcomes.

 

Medical Manufacturers

 

The FDA guidance makes it a point to note the types of life science firms and industry employees who can be held legally responsible. Medical labeling and the labeling of medical products can include:

 

  • Applicants
  • Sponsors
  • Requestors
  • Manufacturers
  • Packers
  • Distributors
  • Licensees
  • Any person communicating on behalf of these entities.

 

Clinical Evaluation

 

There has been some clinical research concerns across the healthcare industry about data integrity and organizations or publications that have issued clinical studies. The FDA guidance describes what it considers a source publication for legitimacy as:

 

  • The clinical problem is scientifically sound
  • The clinical study provides relevant information
  • Clinical data is relevant to HCPs who make clinical decisions
  • Clinical treatment must be relevant to the the care of a patient

 

The FDA guidance is written so industry employees focus towards:

 

  • Interpreting strengths and weaknesses of clinical research
  • Interpreting validity and utility of the therapeutic information

 

Healthcare Providers (HCPs)

 

The FDA guidance goes on to elaborate about professionals who are engaged with clinical decision making during patient treatment. Additionally, special focus is given to individuals licensed or authorized by law to prescribe, order, administer, or use medical products during their daily job.

 

Regulatory Compliance

 

The FDA goes on to comment that medical product regulation has progressed over time and is shaped via real world clinical evidence. Additionally, there can be significant hazards to society when uses of medical products do not follow the clinical process for regulatory approval.

 

FDA’s premarket review process decides if a medical product is safe and effective for the specified use(s) in an recognized patient profile. Yet, after the premarket review process is complete and a product is approved/cleared, questions may arise.

 

Intended Use

 

These questions can be investigated during clinical use of the medical product for the intended patient. Specifically, FDA premarket review for medical products includes:

 

  • Safety and effectiveness for each intended use needs to be appropriately studied by firms
  • Independently evaluated by FDA before a medical product is introduced into interstate commerce
  • Evidence that demonstrates effectiveness and safety for one product does not guarantee the clinical effectiveness or safety for additional uses

Med Tech Theater: February 6th, 1:30 – 2:15 PM

Presenter: Helin Raagel, Nelson Labs

Title: Biocompatibility as a Critical Design Input

Biocompatibility evaluation must accompany any medical device that has contact with a patient during use and is a requirement before a device can be cleared for market. This is usually the last step in device development and should be performed per ISO 10993-1. While biocompatibility should be assessed using the final finished device, it should not be considered as an after-thought, but instead be an active component of the design process.

This presentation provides an overview of what biocompatibility is, and what should be considered when performing a biological evaluation. We will also discuss the importance of choosing the appropriate materials from the beginning of the design phase to address potential changes caused by supply chain issues.

 

Med Tech Theater: Tuesday, February 6th, 2:30-3:15pm

Presenter: Gregory Grams

Title: The Impact of Sterilization Modality on Connected Devices with Electronic Components

The connected device market is an emergent field in medicine. These technologies have delivered improvements in treatment outcomes and the patient experience across many market segments. The terminal sterilization of connected devices can present several unique challenges in comparison with standard non-connected devices.

Their complex nature and combination of materials and electronic components can lead to malfunctioning devices. To help address these challenges, manufacturers of the connected devices must consider terminal sterilization during the initial design phase and develop a partnership with a sterilization provider to select the most suitable sterilization modality.

Title: ISO 10993-1 Committee Draft and FDA Guidance Update: Key Biocompatibilty Changes and Regulatory Status

Presenter: Thor Rollins

Last year, a Committee Draft of ISO 10993-1 was submitted for review by ISO experts, reflecting the latest developments in biocompatibility evaluation. 

Simultaneously, the FDA introduced a new Guidance on Biocompatibility, marking significant strides in this field, particularly in light of next-gen design and emerging technologies.

In this presentation, we will delve into the evolving concepts within these documents, with a keen focus on their relevance to next-gen design and emerging technologies and provide insights into their current regulatory acceptance. Furthermore, we will address the latest comments on the draft and resolutions arising from the ISO committee meeting.
