Experts in IVD Clinical Performance Studies

Ensuring comprehensive clinical evidence and demonstrating clinical performance is a challenging process. Notified Bodies often highlight that initial submission packages are incomplete, with over 40% of deficiencies relating to clinical evidence

What are IVD clinical performance studies?

The IVD Regulation (EU) 2017/746, ISO20916:2024, and the World Health Organization (WHO) have defined stringent requirements that manufacturers must comply with.

 

We offer clinical performance studies in collaboration with renowned clinical laboratories, blood banks, and state-of-the-art private laboratories across Europe. As a sponsor, you can be confident that we will handle every aspect of the clinical performance study for your IVD, leaving you free to focus on your core business activities.
