Stellar Biotechnologies Announces pre-IDE Meeting with FDA

Port Hueneme, CA | Posted on May 10th, 2011

The outcome of this consultation with the FDA assisted Stellar to identify and define its strategy to complete the clinical development and regulatory pathway for the anti-KLH in vitro diagnostic device. The FDA encouraged Stellar to consider additional clinical investigation plans that may distinguish the clinical correlation of the assay results with measures of patient immune response.

Stellar is committed to pursuing this unmet medical need to make this diagnostic tool available to clinicians as quickly as possible, and will work to complete the development and regulatory activities identified during this meeting with the Agency.
