Objective: This presentation will focus on device studies that are sponsored by a single investigator. Navigating the regulatory landscape, from both the sponsor and investigator role, requires a specific level of expertise. Appreciating the operational fundamentals while anticipating potential barriers are essential to finding success in this area. This presentation will focus on these areas, providing educational content that aims to enhance the audience’s device skillset within the context of investigator-initiated trials.
