SOLANA BEACH, Calif., June 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ClearPoint Neuro, Inc. (Nasdaq: CLPT) (the “Company”), a global therapy-enabling platform company providing navigation and delivery to the brain, today announced the receipt of certification for the Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP).
MDSAP allows the conduct of a single regulatory audit of a medical device manufacturer’s quality management system to satisfy the requirements of multiple regulatory jurisdictions or authorities enabling appropriate regulatory oversight of medical device manufacturers’ quality management systems while minimizing regulatory burden on the industry. The program currently represents Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration, Brazil’s Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária, Health Canada, Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices Agency, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health.
“The fourth pillar of ClearPoint’s growth strategy is global expansion for which MDSAP certification is essential. This certification validates our ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest quality assurance standards within the medical device industry as required by regulatory authorities across the world,” said Megan Faulkenberry, Vice President of Quality and Regulatory at ClearPoint Neuro. “While many medical device companies experience difficulties with expansion into key geographies due to the many requirements in play across various regulations, our team has succeeded in achieving this significant accomplishment. This milestone demonstrates the high level of quality and regulatory compliance we maintain as we continue to push forward globally. We have invested to make our quality system a strength that our biologics and drug delivery partners can count on as they navigate regulatory and commercial approvals for their drug platforms.”
