Hi, Should materials (vacutainers, swabs etc) supplied by a central lab for use in a commercial drug trial in the UK have CE marks as appropriate?
Which codes of the CE marks do you mean?
For a clinical investigation involving a non-CE-marked medical device (i.e. a new or substantially modified device, or an existing device with a new function, feature or material), or a CE-marked device being used for a new intended purpose, the sponsor is likely to require a Notice of No Objection from the MHRA prior to commencing a study.
There are certain circumstances where use of a non-CE-marked device used within a healthcare establishment may not be covered by the provisions of the Medical Devices Regulations/Directives. Further advice on this can be found on the [URL="https://www.gov.uk/topic/medicines-medical-devices-blood/clinical-trials-investigations"]MHRA website.[/URL]
