Regulatory leadership

The reviewers who certified the files now architect them.

Eclevar's regulatory strategy is built by people who assessed technical files from inside a Notified Body. Dr Mark DaCosta, COO and former TÜV SÜD reviewer, leads a team that knows what triggers a Major NCR and designs a cohesive regulatory narrative where every document, from the CER to the risk file, reinforces your safety claims.

The strategic advantage

Regulatory is not a checklist. It is a market access engine.

In the EU MDR era, compliance is no longer a static goal. It is a continuous cycle of clinical evidence generation and risk management. Eclevar does not just fill forms: we architect technical documentation that withstands the most rigorous audits.

The core insight. Most Major NCRs are not caused by a lack of data, but by a lack of narrative alignment. A CER that does not talk to your risk management file, or a technical file that misses the state-of-the-art context, is a red flag. We build a cohesive regulatory story where every document reinforces your safety claims.

MDD versus MDR

What actually changed.

Focus areaOld directive (MDD)New regulation (MDR)
Clinical evidenceEquivalence default; light data.Mandatory clinical data; strict equivalence limits (Annex XIV).
Technical documentationSiloed; minimal lifecycle focus.Unified technical file; dynamic lifecycle integration (PMS/PMCF).
NB scrutinySampling audits; predictable timelines.Unannounced audits; deep technical and clinical review.
Post-marketPassive complaint reporting.Active PMS and PMCF; continuous data collection.

A client's live testimonial on Eclevar's capability to run complex trials.

Eclevar manages RegenLab's PMCF programme on chronic wound devices. This is a randomized study of 160 patients across 14 sites in 5 EU countries, covering both diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) and venous leg ulcer (VLU) indications. The partnership combines Eclevar's ISO 14155 clinical expertise with the Milo Studio platform to deliver post-market clinical follow-up evidence that supports both Notified Body scrutiny and reimbursement endpoints, from protocol design through to final study report.

« Eclevar, with its tailor-made approach and advanced Milo Studio platform, represents a major strategic asset. »

FAQ

Regulatory questions, answered.

How does Eclevar support Rule 11 software classification?

Rule 11 has moved almost all software as a medical device to Class IIa or higher. We help you define your intended purpose carefully to secure the correct classification while preparing the rigorous clinical data now required.

Can Eclevar help with legacy device transition?

Yes. Legacy MDD devices have no grandfathering under the EU MDR. We conduct a gap analysis of your current data and build a clinical bridging strategy to minimise new trial requirements.

Do you interact directly with Notified Bodies?

Yes. We act as your technical experts during audits and lead the response strategy to Notified Body questions, significantly reducing the risk of a Major NCR.
