Deep Expertise in Preclinical Research for Medical Devices Under Development

Non-GLP studies at an early stage in the development process can minimize the risk of failure during GLP preclinical studies and help Sponsors decide next steps in their research, development, and testing processes.

Non-GLP proof of concept studies receive less regulatory scrutiny and do not have the same archive and report standard requirements as GLP studies, making them a cost-effective option. As a result, non-GLP studies can also be scheduled and carried out more quickly due to shorter testing durations, smaller sample sizes, and faster report delivery.

Finally, a non-GLP study can be very useful in providing important insights and data on how a device is performing in vivo—an important step before Sponsors invest in a GLP study. Pricing can be optimized if both non-GLP and GLP studies are completed at NAMSA.
