This webinar will provide a brief history of the FDA’s interest in laboratory-developed tests (LDTs) and review the new requirements in detail, serving as an introduction to medical device regulations in the context of a clinical laboratory.
In October 2023, the FDA proposed new regulations that declare LDTs to be medical devices, subject to oversight by the FDA. The regulations were finalized in the spring of 2024. FDA envisions a multi-year phase-in period, with new requirements going into effect at certain milestones, including adverse event reporting, laboratories registering as medical device manufacturers and listing information about their tests in a public database, new quality system requirements, and ultimately submission of test validation information to the FDA. Laboratories that do not meet these requirements will not be allowed to maintain existing LDTs or develop new ones. The impact on the diagnostic testing landscape is enormous.
