    ✨ Exciting news for developers of innovative therapies! Member State authorities have endorsed the COMBINE programme, a cross-sector initiative designed to streamline combined studies of medicines and medical devices, including diagnostics. The COMBINE programme spans seven cross-sector projects to be rolled out over the coming years, focusing on: ✅ Piloting a single assessment process for multi-country combined studies under device and medicinal product regulations. ✅ Harmonizing serious adverse event reporting processes. ✅ Clarifying the interface between clinical trials and medical device regulations. ✅ Exploring ways to advise sponsors and foster knowledge exchange among national authorities. By fostering collaboration in an inclusive framework, the COMBINE programme brings together competent authorities for clinical trials and medical devices, the European Commission, the European Medicines Agency, ethics committees and key stakeholders like sponsors, clinicians, and patient representatives. 🔗 Learn more about the strategy here: https://lnkd.in/gV8Kya8m #HealthUnion
