For decades, Laboratory Developed Tests (LDTs) have been subject to limited regulatory oversight compared to other diagnostic tests, allowing laboratories to develop and use these tests with greater flexibility. As LDTs have become increasingly sophisticated and commercially widespread, the FDA has moved to increase its oversight, signaling a shift toward more rigorous regulatory requirements.

The FDA’s new regulatory framework, aimed at bringing LDTs under the same level of scrutiny as other in vitro diagnostic devices (IVDs), will have a far-reaching impact for manufacturers operating in this space. This shift underscores the critical need for companies developing LDTs to establish robust quality and regulatory systems that maintain compliance and ensure product quality.

As the LDT landscape continues to evolve, a trusted regulatory partner is crucial to stay ahead of regulatory challenges. ELIQUENT Life Sciences is uniquely positioned to support organizations during this critical transformation. Our unprecedented assembly of regulatory leaders, industry experts, and technical specialists partner with LDT companies to maintain compliance, ensure product quality, and remain competitive in an evolving regulatory landscape.

ELIQUENT collaborates with companies to develop a clear, effective strategy to determine the appropriate regulatory pathway and ensure your LDT meets FDA requirements.

We assist in preparing pre-submission packages (Pre-Subs) and facilitate meetings with the FDA to obtain feedback on your product, reducing the risk of rejections or delays.
