We are aware of an issue causing the title of some ARTG entries to disappear. We are investigating as a priority and hope to have this resolved as soon as possible.
This consultation closed on 19 April 2021.
The International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF) working group on Good Regulatory Review Practices seeks to develop guidance that establishes good regulatory review practices for Regulatory Authorities and/or Conformity Assessment Bodies (CABs), and to promote global harmonisation in the premarket review processes. The working group chair is Melissa Torres of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
This draft IMDRF document is part of a series that is under development that will help to establish a common set of requirements to be used by Regulatory Authorities for the recognition and monitoring of entities that perform regulatory reviews of medical devices, including IVDs medical devices.
The IMDRF working group is seeking comments from interested parties on the proposed guidance document, which outlines the process used to evaluate CAB performance and the possible outcomes if performance issues are identified.
The TGA, together with all other working group members, invite interested parties to comment on the document.
