Initial CE Marking and Ongoing PMS Support for a Class III Radioactive Medical Device

Initial CE Marking and Ongoing PMS Support for a Class III Radioactive Medical Device

Project Summary

A manufacturer of a Class III radioactive medical device required comprehensive regulatory support to secure initial CE marking and maintain ongoing compliance with the EU Medical Device Regulation (EU MDR).

Celegence was engaged to develop and implement a Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) strategy, including Post-Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) planning, Periodic Safety Update Report (PSUR) development, and regulatory documentation support.

The engagement extended beyond initial certification to include annual surveillance audits and long-term regulatory maintenance.

Scope of Work

Celegence provided end-to-end regulatory support across the device lifecycle, including :

check-marks

Equivalence justification: Identified a suitable equivalent device to support clinical data bridging where device-specific literature was limited.

check-marks

Safety and performance objectives: Developed EU MDR-aligned clinical safety and performance objectives and mapped them to PMCF activities.

check-marks

Standards and testing support: Assisted in identifying applicable standards and testing requirements for conformity assessment.

check-marks

Notified Body interactions: Responded to Notified Body queries to address feedback and minimize initial rejection and additional review cycles.

check-marks

PMCF planning and execution: Developed cost-effective, risk-based PMCF plans, PSURs, and PMCF evaluation reports.

check-marks

Audit and annual maintenance: Supported annual surveillance audits over three consecutive years, including SOP development for trending, data capture, and analysis.

Outcome

check-marks

Initial CE marking achieved: Secured CE marking with minimal rounds of Notified Body feedback.

check-marks

Ongoing regulatory compliance: Supported continued EU MDR compliance and surveillance audit readiness.

check-marks

Timely regulatory submissions: Met tight Notified Body submission deadlines while exceeding the client's quality expectations.

check-marks

Strategic PMCF execution: Implemented risk-based PMCF activities aligned with regulatory expectations and the client's budget.

Project Success

The success of this engagement was driven by close collaboration between Celegence's experienced regulatory professionals and the manufacturer's internal team. By bringing together clinical evaluation expertise, PMS strategy, regulatory documentation, and Notified Body interaction support, Celegence enabled responsive, high-quality document development throughout the engagement. This cross-functional approach helped the manufacturer achieve initial CE marking, maintain ongoing regulatory compliance, and manage annual surveillance activities while minimizing delays and cost overruns.
