It has shown excellent in vivo efficacy in multiple mouse tumor models with EGFR Exon20ins mutations. It has the potential to obtain ...
Drugdu.com expert’s response: The FDA registration review process for medical devices involves the following key steps: 1.Determine Product Classification: Firstly, the classification of the medical device needs to be determined, i.e., identifying which category it falls under in the FDA’s classification system. FDA categorizes medical devices into three classes: Class I, Class II, and Class III. The registration review process and requirements may vary depending on the device’s classification. 2.Prepare Registration Application: Prepare a comprehensive registration application package according to FDA requirements, including product description, technical specifications, design files, clinical trial data (if applicable), quality management system documentation, manufacturing process documentation, etc. 3.Submit Registration Application: Submit the complete registration application package to the FDA. Typically, this is done through the FDA’s electronic registration system, the FDA Unified Registration and Listing System (FURLS). 4.Registration Review: The FDA reviews the submitted registration application.

Hepatitis B, a significant global health concern, is responsible for chronic liver diseases like cirrhosis and liver cancer which is one of the most common cancers worldwide. The challenge with hepatitis B is that most carriers are asymptomatic, remaining unaware of their infection, which can lead to its unintentional spread. Thus, early diagnosis is vital to halt the spread, initiate timely treatment, and reduce the risk of liver complications primarily caused by the hepatitis B virus. However, conventional tests for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) are complex, requiring specialized skills and large, expensive machine-based assays typically found in major hospitals. To overcome the problem of inadequate access to screening for Hepatitis B, researchers have developed a wireless, point-of-care test for the Hepatitis B Virus that can make diagnosis simpler and faster. Researchers from Chulalongkorn University (Bangkok, Thailand) have developed a testing kit that enables ...
