Extensive Open FDA Inspection
Findings Fully Resolved
BACKGROUND
A clinical trial site network was having difficulty bringing in new studies to its sites because it had five open 483s from FDA inspections over the preceding year.
CHALLENGES
Because FDA had not yet closed out the inspections, the site network was in limbo and its business was at risk. Using our deep expertise in clinical trials and FDA operations, HIC investigated the situation with FDA and worked with each principal investigator to augment their 483 response to better address FDA’s observations.
RESULT
FDA was satisfied with the augmented responses and closed out all 483s soon after HIC’s intervention. The site network was able to return to business as usual, with an enhanced understanding of how best to engage and collaborate with FDA.
