This book was released on 2022-01-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These three modules are designed to assist both the sponsor and the clinical investigator in conducting professional investigational trials for biomedical devices. The US Food & Drug Administration has a specific Center for all bio-medical devices, with regulations and numerous guidance documents to assist the industry and investigators in the requirements for such trials. Bio-medical devices, their regulations, and requirements are perhaps the most complex and difficult to grasp for the new sponsor or clinical investigator. The regulatory nuances, frequently based on historic anomalies, drive the current regulatory process and those involved in such trials must be trained in these different requirements. While the detail is complex, following the different approval or clearance pathways correctly can result in receiving the Agency's marketing approval or clearance in a ready-made format. These three modules provide the basics of such understanding and compliance. The first module begins with the difference between regular physician-based care for a patient to the clinical investigator who follows the restrictions of the protocol and the consequent consent form. Similarly, off-label use of a device in a physician's office differs from an off-label trial, with the latter requiring submissions to the FDA before beginning the clinical trial. A unique subset of biomedical devices is that the device may be a combination device (device-drug or device-biologic) requiring careful scrutiny as to which regulatory framework controls. This Module also includes sponsor responsibilities, to the FDA, the principal investigator, and the reviewing IRB. Module B continues the overview, with the responsibilities of the principal investigator, followed by the protocol-driven Investigational Device protocol to the FDA. I also include studies with apps, a timely matter considering the wide use of apps on today's smartphones. Module C reviews the consent form for study subjects, followed by a review of FDA's three 510(k) processes, followed by the FDA audit. The audit can be a scary proposition, especially for the site that has not prepared for it. I offer recommendations for such preparation. These three modules, though comprehensive, can be mastered to the great benefit of the investigational community, and more so, for the patient who will receive an approved or cleared device that has been tested with proven efficacy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical investigations with biologics are commonly complex, requiring detailed knowledge of the regulatory frameworks for both drugs and biologics since the Food & Drug Administration applies the regulations for drugs as well as for biologics for such clinical investigations. The complexity is furthered if the article is a combination biologic-drug or biologic-device. These three modules are designed to assist the sponsor and clinical investigator in conducting professional investigational trials for biologics. The FDA has a specific Center for biologics, with regulations and many guidance documents to assist the industry and investigators in the requirements for such trials. These two modules provide the basics of understanding the regulatory framework and complying with the Agency's requirements. Module A focuses on the Principal Investigator and the responsibilities necessary to comply with FDA requirements during the course of the clinical trial. The module begins with the definition of a biologic, followed by a review of clinical trials, gene transfer studies, the clinical investigator's responsibilities during the trial with regard to documentation, risks, how to respond to the study sponsor, the Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB), and the FDA. The module concludes with details regarding the consent form and process, detailing what is necessary to consent a subject into the study. Module B focuses on the study sponsor and the submissions to the FDA for permission to begin the study. The module begins with a review of the protocol sections, together with the electronic Common Technical Document (eCTD), the phases of the clinical investigation, a review of combination products, dual-use technologies, concluding with the FDA audit. These two modules, though comprehensive, can be mastered to the great benefit of the investigational community, and more so, for the patient who will receive an approved biologic that has proven efficacy.

Download or read book Registries for Evaluating Patient Outcomes written by Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality/AHRQ and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This User’s Guide is intended to support the design, implementation, analysis, interpretation, and quality evaluation of registries created to increase understanding of patient outcomes. For the purposes of this guide, a patient registry is an organized system that uses observational study methods to collect uniform data (clinical and other) to evaluate specified outcomes for a population defined by a particular disease, condition, or exposure, and that serves one or more predetermined scientific, clinical, or policy purposes. A registry database is a file (or files) derived from the registry. Although registries can serve many purposes, this guide focuses on registries created for one or more of the following purposes: to describe the natural history of disease, to determine clinical effectiveness or cost-effectiveness of health care products and services, to measure or monitor safety and harm, and/or to measure quality of care. Registries are classified according to how their populations are defined. For example, product registries include patients who have been exposed to biopharmaceutical products or medical devices. Health services registries consist of patients who have had a common procedure, clinical encounter, or hospitalization. Disease or condition registries are defined by patients having the same diagnosis, such as cystic fibrosis or heart failure. The User’s Guide was created by researchers affiliated with AHRQ’s Effective Health Care Program, particularly those who participated in AHRQ’s DEcIDE (Developing Evidence to Inform Decisions About Effectiveness) program. Chapters were subject to multiple internal and external independent reviews.

Download or read book Sharing Clinical Trial Data written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-04-20 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data sharing can accelerate new discoveries by avoiding duplicative trials, stimulating new ideas for research, and enabling the maximal scientific knowledge and benefits to be gained from the efforts of clinical trial participants and investigators. At the same time, sharing clinical trial data presents risks, burdens, and challenges. These include the need to protect the privacy and honor the consent of clinical trial participants; safeguard the legitimate economic interests of sponsors; and guard against invalid secondary analyses, which could undermine trust in clinical trials or otherwise harm public health. Sharing Clinical Trial Data presents activities and strategies for the responsible sharing of clinical trial data. With the goal of increasing scientific knowledge to lead to better therapies for patients, this book identifies guiding principles and makes recommendations to maximize the benefits and minimize risks. This report offers guidance on the types of clinical trial data available at different points in the process, the points in the process at which each type of data should be shared, methods for sharing data, what groups should have access to data, and future knowledge and infrastructure needs. Responsible sharing of clinical trial data will allow other investigators to replicate published findings and carry out additional analyses, strengthen the evidence base for regulatory and clinical decisions, and increase the scientific knowledge gained from investments by the funders of clinical trials. The recommendations of Sharing Clinical Trial Data will be useful both now and well into the future as improved sharing of data leads to a stronger evidence base for treatment. This book will be of interest to stakeholders across the spectrum of research-from funders, to researchers, to journals, to physicians, and ultimately, to patients.

Download or read book Practical Aspects of Signal Detection in Pharmacovigilance written by Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences (CIOMS) and published by Cioms. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years public expectations for rapid identification and prompt management of emerging drug safety issues have grown swiftly. Over a similar timeframe, the move from paper-based adverse event reporting systems to electronic capture and rapid transmission of data has resulted in the accrual of substantial datasets capable of complex analysis and querying by industry, regulators and other public health organizations. These two drivers have created a fertile environment for pharmacovigilance scientists, information technologists and statistical experts, working together, to deliver novel approaches to detect signals from these extensive and quickly growing datasets, and to manage them appropriately. In following this exciting story, this report looks at the practical consequences of these developments for pharmacovigilance practitioners. The report provides a comprehensive resource for those considering how to strengthen their pharmacovigilance systems and practices, and to give practical advice. But the report does not specify instant solutions. These will inevitably be situation specific and require careful consideration taking into account local needs. However, the CIOMS Working Group VIII is convinced that the combination of methods and a clear policy on the management of signals will strengthen current systems. Finally, in looking ahead, the report anticipates a number of ongoing developments, including techniques with wider applicability to other data forms than individual case reports. The ultimate test for pharmacovigilance systems is the demonstration of public health benefit and it is this test which signal detection methodologies need to meet if the expectations of all stakeholders are to be fulfilled.

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.

Download or read book Finding What Works in Health Care written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-07-20 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Healthcare decision makers in search of reliable information that compares health interventions increasingly turn to systematic reviews for the best summary of the evidence. Systematic reviews identify, select, assess, and synthesize the findings of similar but separate studies, and can help clarify what is known and not known about the potential benefits and harms of drugs, devices, and other healthcare services. Systematic reviews can be helpful for clinicians who want to integrate research findings into their daily practices, for patients to make well-informed choices about their own care, for professional medical societies and other organizations that develop clinical practice guidelines. Too often systematic reviews are of uncertain or poor quality. There are no universally accepted standards for developing systematic reviews leading to variability in how conflicts of interest and biases are handled, how evidence is appraised, and the overall scientific rigor of the process. In Finding What Works in Health Care the Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommends 21 standards for developing high-quality systematic reviews of comparative effectiveness research. The standards address the entire systematic review process from the initial steps of formulating the topic and building the review team to producing a detailed final report that synthesizes what the evidence shows and where knowledge gaps remain. Finding What Works in Health Care also proposes a framework for improving the quality of the science underpinning systematic reviews. This book will serve as a vital resource for both sponsors and producers of systematic reviews of comparative effectiveness research.
