Substantially Equivalent???
“That’s a CDRH term… that doesn’t
apply to CBER devices”

Substantially Equivalent is part of the equation..
 But more importantly… must meet Blood quality
standards
 Hemolysis at the end of storage
 Residual White blood cell content
 Red cell recovery after filtration
 Total hemoglobin in the blood product
 platelet count
9

Blood Quality standards can be found in…
 Guidance documents
 Memo’s to blood establishments
 Prior 510ks
 Transcripts from public meetings
BUT not in the Code of Federal Regulations??

Scenario #1 Plasma- Secret criteria
 Automated device already cleared to collect plasma
labeled as FFP (frozen within 6 hours)
 Very limited criteria published for plasma
 Clinical trial designed to qualify FFP and plasma frozen
within 24 hours
 FDA has a host of parameters which now must be tested
 Communication with competitors reveals everyone has a
slightly different list
11

#2 In vivo recovery: Higher is better
 IDE submitted for a trial to qualify an apheresis device for
collection of two units of red cells.
 Acceptance criteria includes in vivo recovery criteria
which has been applied in submissions for 10+ years.
 Upon submitting 510(k) FDA informs us there is not more
stringent criteria.
…public session one slide contained a reference to more
stringent criteria
 Communication with competitors reveals everyone has a
slightly different criteria.

#3 Tell me what you got and them we’ll tell you
the criteria
 Public meeting a new criteria is revealed for platelets
 Pre-meeting with FDA is held concerning acceptance
criteria for a clinical study
 Statistical boundaries were not defined
 FDA asked us to provide analysis with various confidence
levels, 90%, 95% and 99%
 FDA determines criteria based on our analysis
13

Effective Strategies
 Type C: pre- 510(k) meeting to discuss strategy
 Collaboration with competitors- let’s get in a room and
hash this out.
 Offer to develop guidance documents through a working
group
 Develop relationships with FDA to get a heads up about
what initiatives are in process
 IDE submission
 Request for meta-analysis of data for products marketed
 Fight fire with fire: Statistician as a resource
14

What can we learn from CBER
 Substantial equivalence is an antiquated term
 A new model will be developed to ensure safety and
effectiveness for non-PMA devices
 Performance standards will be developed
 FDA may want to raise the bar… but this must be based
on reality
 In God we trust all… all others bring data
 Access to a Statistician is critical
 FDA does not have enough resources.. get involved and help
to develop standards.
