  • 1.  CFDA: Device Pre-Assessment during Supplement Phase Now Available

    Posted 17-Oct-2018 14:43
    Medical Device Pre-Assessment during Supplement Phase becomes available in China. You will know in advance if you meet the supplemental requirements.

    NMPA (CFDA) issued Notice for Medical Device Pre-Assessment during Supplement Phase on September 12th. The pre-assessment can be requested by manufacturers 2 months before the submission deadline of supplemental materials; CFDA opinion will be given within 20 days after the request. The pre-assessment applies to imported Class II, Class III and domestic Class III medical devices.

    Unlike FDA, CFDA REQUIRES supplements after reviewing your initial registration application. Previously, you can only expect the final decision on your supplements which is a benchmark for the approval of your device/ IVD. As the Pre-Assessment implements, now you can prepare additional materials even if CFDA gives negative comments on your supplements.
