Extended Comment Period for Draft Guidance on Assessing the Credibility of Computational Modeling and Simulation in Medical Device Submissions Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the comment period for the draft guidance: Assessing the Credibility of Computational Modeling and Simulation in Medical Device Submissions published on December 23, 2021, has been extended by 30 days. The FDA is seeking input from industry, researchers, and other interested stakeholders on the draft guidance. The FDA developed this draft guidance document to assist industry and FDA staff in assessing the credibility of Computational Modeling and Simulation (CM&S) used to support medical device regulatory submissions. This draft guidance is only applicable to certain computational models (for example, physics-based or mechanistic) and not others (for example, machine learning or artificial intelligence) models. Facts about the draft guidance This draft guidance, when finalized, is intended to: - Help improve the consistency and transparency of the review of CM&S evidence
- Increase confidence in the use of this evidence in regulatory submissions
- Facilitate improved interpretation of this evidence submitted in regulatory submissions reviewed by FDA staff
Note: This draft guidance is not for implementation at this time. Submit comments on this draft guidance This draft guidance will be open for public comments until March 24, 2022 (90 days from issue date) days at www.Regulations.gov under docket number FDA-2021-D-0980.
