FDA Public Workshop: Standards Based Approach to Analytical Performance Evaluation of Next Generation Sequencing In Vitro Diagnostic Tests

Event website: Click here to register
(http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/NewsEvents/WorkshopsConferences/ucm459449.htm)

The purpose of this workshop is to obtain feedback on possible analytical standards and approaches to develop or build on existing standardization efforts in order to optimize FDA’s regulation of next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based in vitro diagnostic tests. Comments and suggestions generated through this workshop will also guide the use of regulatory science to advance the further development of appropriate and relevant performance standards for evaluation of next generation sequencing in vitro diagnostic tests that produce results on variation in the human genome.

Deadline to register is close of business October 30, 2015. FDA will webcast the workshop.
