The role of industry in shaping the regulatory environment for combined products
Experts will discuss the latest developments in European and Swiss regulations for combined products and the opportunities and challenges the healthcare industry faces. Combined products refer to an increasing range of products that include drugs and device combination products being classified as drug or device as well as combined use of software as medical device and companion diagnostics with drugs to fulfil a medical purpose. Industry associations can make an important contribution to ensuring that the regulatory framework guarantees both patient safety and appropriate access to innovation.
Participants will also have the opportunity to provide their perspectives, and have their questions answered on combined products, the associations and upcoming events.
