The clinical evaluation of <strong>medical devices serves this purpose<\/strong>. If there is no existing robust literature data, a clinical trial must be conducted.<\/p>\n<p>If robust literature data (compliant with Medical Device Regulation Group [MDCG] Guideline 2020-16) does not exist, data from market surveillance or new in vitro\/in vivo data must be collected. If this is still not sufficient, a <strong>clinical trial for the medical device<\/strong> must be conducted. For this purpose, the qualified head of the clinical trial (investigator) prepares a dedicated protocol according to DIN EN ISO 14155:2011. According to Section 22a of the German Medical Devices Act (MPG), approval must be obtained from the competent higher federal authority (in Germany, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bfarm.de\/EN\/Home\/_node.html\">the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices [BfArM<\/a>]), and the consenting assessment of the competent ethics committee according to Section 20 (1) MPG. Likewise, the Ordinance on Clinical Trials of Medical Devices (<a title=\"MPKPV\" href=\"https:\/\/www.buzer.de\/gesetz\/9263\/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MPKPV<\/a>) and the Medical Devices Safety Plan Ordinance (<a title=\"MPSV\" href=\"https:\/\/www.buzer.de\/gesetz\/6622\/index.htm\">MPSV<\/a>) must be observed.<\/p>\n<h2>Requirements for a clinical trial of medical devices and implementation<\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>quality requirements for clinical trials of medical devices<\/strong> according to the <strong>EN ISO 14155 <\/strong>standard are quite comparable to those that apply to drug studies (International Conference on Harmonisation of technical requirements for registration of pharmaceuticals for human use <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ichgcp.net\/\">[ICH-GCP]<\/a><\/strong>). <strong>The steps of the clinical trial <\/strong><strong>(<\/strong>according to <strong>Medial Devices Documents (MEDDEV) 2.7-1 Revision 4<\/strong><strong>)<\/strong> <strong>include the preparation of the clinical evaluation plan (CEP; MDR<\/strong><strong>, Annex XIV, Part A)<\/strong> <strong>and the clinical evaluation report (CER; MDR, Article 61)<\/strong>. The conduct of the clinical study includes <strong>study design<\/strong>, <strong>study submission and registration<\/strong>, <strong>study conduct<\/strong>, <strong>safety reporting<\/strong>, <strong>audits<\/strong>, <strong>supplier qualification<\/strong>, <strong>clinical data management<\/strong>, and <strong>data analysis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The study design must specify the type of clinical trial (e.g., superiority, non-inferiority, or equivalence), sample size, and statistical analysis plan (SAP). Also, the <strong>clinical investigation plan<\/strong>(<strong>CIP<\/strong>), <strong>Investigator&#8217;s Brochure (IB)<\/strong>,<strong>clinical trial site selection<\/strong>, and <strong>electronic Case Report Form (eCRF)<\/strong> architecture and <strong>Trial Master File (TMF)<\/strong> structure must be determined. Submission of the<strong>clinical trial application (CTA)<\/strong>and its <strong>registration<\/strong>is then made to the relevant national authorities, ethics committees and Notified Bodies.<\/p>\n<p>Key steps in the clinical evaluation of medical devices are <strong>safety reporting<\/strong> (<strong>Serious Adverse Event, Reporting and Periodic Safety Reporting<\/strong>), <strong>audits<\/strong>, e.g., <strong>audits of the trial site, clinical procedures, contracted contract research organization<\/strong> \/ Clinical Research Organization, and supplier qualifications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Clinical Data Management<\/strong> \/ <strong>Analysis <\/strong>(DCM Plan Compliation, Database Set-up, Clinical Set-up, Clinical Data Analysis, Clinical Investigation Report [CIR] Compilation and eCRF Solution) must also be implemented according to guidelines. The <strong>clinical evaluation for medical devices<\/strong> also requires <strong>cytotoxicity testing <\/strong>(<strong>evaluation of biocompatibility<\/strong>) according to <strong>DIN EN ISO 10933-3<\/strong>.
