Daphne Smits, Qserve's Senior Project Manager at Qserve CRO, has over 15 years of experience with Clinical Trials and IVD and Medical Device studies, whilst focusing on submissions of CDx studies within the EU. She will be hosting a session at EUCROF27.

Session details:

Topic: Tips and tricks for submission processes in Medical Device studies; What have we learned from CTIS? 

This session provides a practical overview of planning, executing, and reporting Clinical Investigations under the EU Medical Devices Regulation, with a focus on navigating the regulatory landscape in the continued absence of EUDAMED. Drawing on real-world experience - and supported by a hands-on case study - discover the distinct challenges of both pre-market investigational studies and post-market observational studies, including country-specific nuances that sponsors and study teams encounter in practice.
