FDAMap

Each year FDA receives about 3000 applications for new devices via the 510k process, and about 60% of them are rejected either for poor quality application that cannot even be reviewed or for other technical reasons. Submissions to the FDA that are poorly organized, do not follow current practices, contain inconsistencies between documents, have missing or incomplete content, or poor structure will result in significant delays in the clearance process. With multiple review cycles, up to 90 days each, rejections by FDA could stretch the 510k clearance time-lines to 8 months or more. Most of the refuse-to-accept deficiencies are due to the inexperience of the 510k writers, who ignore the FDA rules. Writing and assembling a complete and well structured 510(k) submission will certainly improve the likelihood of FDA clearance on the first round.

The Molecular Analysis for Precision Oncology Congress 2025 will take place from 15 to 16 September in Paris, France, uniting leading experts in oncology, molecular diagnostics, and precision medicine for dynamic discussions and collaboration, with a focus on decoding the molecular bases of cancer to enable precision oncology. The congress will delve into transformative topics shaping cancer research, including cancer prevention, interception, epigenetics, metastasis, and cancer evolution, offering a deeper understanding of mechanisms driving progression and resistance.

The European Association for Cancer Research (EACR), with support from The Organisation of European Cancer Institutes (OECI)

This virtual event will explore how meaningful involvement of cancer advocates throughout the research process can lead to impactful cancer research. We will highlight practical examples and offer insights into how researchers, clinicians, and patient advocates can work together to bridge gaps between science and cancer care. Participants will better understand the opportunities and challenges in shaping a collaborative research culture to advance research and improve cancer care.

The European Association for Cancer Research (EACR)

This conference will explore the fundamental mechanisms controlling cancer cell plasticity at multiple biological levels including the epigenome, transcriptome, metabolome, and cellular microenvironment. Our panel of expert speakers will also discuss innovative approaches to target cell plasticity using novel pharmacological interventions that aim to prevent or reverse the adaptive mechanisms cancer cells use to circumvent conventional therapies.
