Earlier today (30 March 2023) USFDA released draft guidance on "Marketing Submission Recommendations for a Predetermined Change Control Plan for Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML)-Enabled Device Software Functions" that is open for comments.
In order to protect and promote public health, the FDA is issuing this draft guidance to further develop a regulatory approach tailored to artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML)-enabled devices.
Predetermined Change Control Plans (PCCPs) are required to be included in machine learning-enabled device software functions (ML-DSF) marketing submissions. This draft guidance provides recommendations on how to include such information.
This guidance applies to device constituent parts included in combination products, including drug-device and biologic-device products.
In this draft guidance, the FDA provides recommendations on the marketing submission content for a PCCP, which generally includes:
a detailed description of the specific, planned device modifications;
the associated methodology to develop, validate, and implement those modifications in a manner that ensures the continued safety and effectiveness of the device across relevant patient populations, referred to as the “Modification Protocol”; and
an Impact Assessment to describe the assessment of the benefits and risks of the planned modifications and risk mitigations.
