Target Audience

Who it is for

Tailored support for manufacturers at critical regulatory junctures.

Start-up and scale-up device companies.
Established manufacturers updating to EU MDR.
International companies entering the EU or UK.
Impact and Real-World Results

Common pitfalls we eliminate

Over-optimistic recruitment plans requiring protocol changes.
Choosing sites based on personal contacts, not patient flow.
Late discovery of reimbursement barriers blocking enrollment.
Unclear country strategy for EU MDR and UKCA submissions.
Fragmented feasibility data that is hard to defend to reviewers.
Case Study 01
The Challenge

A growing Medtech company planning its first multi-country trial in Europe was unsure which countries and centers could realistically recruit, especially with limited budget and internal resources.

The Outcome

The sponsor launched a lean study that met recruitment targets without constant amendments. They successfully demonstrated to Notified Bodies that their country choice was entirely data-based.

Case Study 02
The Challenge

An established manufacturer needed PMCF data for MDR but was unsure which European countries and centers could deliver follow-up in routine practice for a Class III implant.

The Outcome

The PMCF study enrolled steadily and generated Real-World Data that fed directly into the Clinical Evaluation Report (CER) and PMCF Evaluation Report, establishing a clear rationale for the chosen sites during Notified Body review.

Case Study 03
The Challenge

A US-based company wanted its first EU study but had little knowledge of European healthcare systems or which countries were realistic for recruitment and approval timelines.

The Outcome

The sponsor secured a three-country design with predictable timelines, met expectations at Ethics and Competent Authorities, and built a strong story for future market access discussions.

Our Methodology

How we work

1

Feasibility Kick-Off

What happens

We hold a kick-off meeting to understand your device indication, objectives, and constraints. Together we agree on target countries, success criteria, and key questions.

How it helps

Keeps everyone aligned from the start. It avoids assumptions and ensures our feasibility work focuses on decisions that matter for your trial.

What we need from you

Device overview, clinical and regulatory background (CER/previous studies), target timelines, budget constraints, and any country preferences.

2

Country Insights & Regulatory Pathway

What happens

We analyze the regulatory landscape (EU MDR, UKCA, etc.) and map out standard of care pathways and reimbursement barriers in the target regions.

3

Site & KOL Outreach

What happens

Direct engagement with Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) and clinical sites to assess genuine interest, patient volumes, and competing trials.

4

Feasibility Report & Read-out

What happens

We deliver the final, comprehensive feasibility report and enrollment forecast model during a strategic read-out session to support your regulatory discussions.
