    Hi all,

    I have Drug/Medical device combination question for Health Canada.  The drug is providing the therapy with the device simply being the delivery mechanism of the IP.  In this case a CTA is required, however the device is not approved for marketing in Canada.  Which module of the CTA should the medical device documents be placed?

    Thank you for your help and assistance.

    Kind regards,

    Is the drug pre-filled into the device, or is the device being supplied physically separate from the drug? In the case of a pre-filled situation this is straightforward (only drug CTA required), however if you are supply a physically-separate device that is not licensed in Canada with the drug it is a more complex situation (and may require contacting Health Canada directly for a clear answer).
