Gibbs — For more than three decades, FDA has claimed that the Federal Food, Drug & Cosmetic (FD&C Act) gives the agency legal authority to regulate laboratory developed tests (LDTs) as medical devices (see our prior post here ).
FDA argues that technological advances in LDTs necessitate FDA’s regulatory oversight pursuant to the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA). The outcome was not a surprise, because the FDCA was designed for regulatory oversight of medical device manufacturing and distribution, not clinical laboratory testing. By Jeffrey K.
The crux of the proposed rule lies in the addition of ten words: “ including when the manufacturer of these products is a laboratory.” These words would be added to the definition of “ in vitro diagnostic [IVD] products” in 21 C.F.R. There is much to unpack, and we intend to do so in a series of blog posts.
Overview of Cell Free Systems Cell-free systems are in-vitro platforms which allow occurrence of biochemical reactions in the absence of living cells. These expression systems utilize bio machinery harvested from the lysate of disrupted cells for the manufacturing of a wide array of macromolecular and small molecule products.
Baumhardt provides counsel to medical device, in vitro diagnostic, and combination product manufacturers on a wide range of pre- and post-marketing regulatory topics. Baumhardt , MS, MJ, MT(ASCP), RAC, FRAPS, has joined the firm as a Senior Medical Device Regulation Expert, and that Sophia Gaulkin has joined the firm as an Associate.
One would think that, as members of a great legislative body, these particular members might be at least a little concerned that FDA has been not fulfilling its “legal responsibility” under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA). At the time, we wrote favorably about this move. Put bluntly, the review of COVID?19 19 LDTs again.
Nirmatrelvir has shown consistent in vitro antiviral activity against the following variants: Alpha, Beta, Delta, Gamma, Lambda, Mu, and Omicron BA.1, The additional 3.7 million treatment courses are planned for delivery by early 2023. . In June of 2022, Pfizer submitted a New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S.
On the other hand, cell free system / cell free expression system are in-vitro platforms that harness the transcription and translation machinery of living cells, in the form of cell lysates, to synthesize various types of biologics, particularly proteins. Interestingly, most of these kits are used for cell-free protein expression.

The Court decision limiting FDA’s discretion provides regulatory certainty for device manufacturers, as the claimed discretion, if recognized by the Court, would have meant that any medical device potentially could be classified and regulated as a drug. We have blogged recently about several FDA setbacks in court ( here , for example).
FDA Extends Review of Pfizer’s New Drug Application for PAXLOVID™. Tuesday, December 20, 2022 - 04:30pm. Pfizer oral treatment remains available to eligible U.S. patients under Emergency Use Authorization as a critical tool in the fight against COVID-19. NEW YORK, December 20, 2022 -- Pfizer Inc. NYSE: PFE) announced today that the U.S. In the U.S.,
These risks have resulted in many companies being found in breach of self-regulatory codes, and a view that an increasingly narrow interpretation was being taken by authorities. What is the scope of the Guidance? Companies should ensure key words are appropriate and do not constitute unauthorised promotion to the public.
Europe plays a critical role in the delivery of PAXLOVID to patients across the globe, as the site of four of Pfizer’s key PAXLOVID manufacturing facilities. This agreement will supply participating countries up to 3.4 million treatment courses upon orders being placed.
To put it into perspective, these were the numbers (so far) for in vitro diagnostics EUAs: 304 molecular, 84 antibody, 51 antigen, and 5 other. In closing, he advised manufacturers who plan to market their products beyond the public health emergency to plan to submit marketing applications. In response, Ms.
