In vitro diagnostic medical devices - Clinical performance studies using specimens from human subjects - Good study practice (ISO 20916:2019)
This document defines good study practice for the planning, design, conduct, recording and reporting of clinical performance studies carried out to assess the clinical performance and safety of in vitro diagnostic (IVD) medical devices for regulatory purposes.
NOTE 1 The purpose of these studies is to assess the ability of an IVD medical device in the hands of the intended user, to yield results pertaining to a particular medical condition or physiological/pathological state, in the intended population.
The document is not intended to describe whether the technical specifications of the IVD medical device in question are adequately addressed by the clinical performance study.
This document identifies the principles that underpin clinical performance studies and specifies general requirements intended to
— ensure the conduct of the clinical performance study will lead to reliable and robust study results,
— define the responsibilities of the sponsor and principal investigator,
— assist sponsors, clinical research organization, investigators, ethics committees, regulatory authorities and other bodies involved in the conformity assessment of IVD medical devices, and
— protect the rights, safety, dignity and well-being of the subjects providing specimens for use in clinical performance studies.
Analytical performance studies are out of the scope of this document.
NOTE 2 When the collection of specimens specifically for the analytical performance study creates an additional collection risk for subjects, some of the elements of this document (particularly the annexes) can be useful for ensuring subject safety.
Clinical performance studies that are performed for reasons other than pre- and post-market regulatory purposes, such as for re-imbursement purposes, are out of the scope of this document.
NOTE 3 Some of the elements of this document can be useful for the design of such studies, including subject safety and data integrity.
This document does not include safety information for laboratory workers or other personnel collecting the study specimens.
NOTE 4 Such information is included in other publications[1][12][13].
NOTE 5 Users of this document can consider whether other standards and/or requirements also apply to the IVD medical device which is the subject of the clinical performance study, for instance, in the situation for which there is an IVD medical device and a medical device used in an integrated system (e.g. a lancet, an IVD test strip, and a glucose meter), aspects of both this document and ISO 14155 can be considered.

Dieses Dokument legt die gute Studienpraxis für die Planung, Gestaltung, Durchführung, Aufzeichnung und Meldung klinischer Leistungsuntersuchungen fest, die durchgeführt werden, um die klinische Leistungs- fähigkeit und Sicherheit von In-vitro-Diagnostika(IVD) für Zulassungszwecke zu bewerten.
ANMERKUNG1 Das Ziel dieser Untersuchungen ist es, die Fähigkeit eines In-vitro-Diagnostikums in den Händen des vorgesehenen Anwenders zu bewerten, Ergebnisse in Bezug auf eine bestimmte gesundheitliche Verfassung oder einen physiologischen/pathologischen Zustand in der vorgesehenen Population zu liefern.
Das Dokument soll nicht beschreiben, ob die technischen Spezifikationen des betreffenden In-vitro- Diagnostikums durch die klinische Leistungsuntersuchung ausreichend abgedeckt sind.
Dieses Dokument legt die Grundsätze fest, die klinischen Leistungsuntersuchungen zugrunde liegen, und gibt allgemeine Anforderungen an, die dazu dienen
—
sicherzustellen, dass die Durchführung der klinischen Leistungsuntersuchung zu zuverlässigen und soli
den Untersuchungsergebnissen führen wird,
—
die Verantwortlichkeiten des Sponsors und Prüfungsleiters festzulegen,
—
die Arbeit von Sponsoren, klinischen Forschungseinrichtungen, Prüfern, Ethikkommissionen, Arznei- mittelagenturen und anderen am Konformitätsbewertungsverfahren für In-vitro-Diagnostika beteiligten Institutionen zu unterstützen und
—
die Rechte, Sicherheit, Würde und das Wohlbefinden der Versuchspersonen zu schützen, die Untersu
chungsmaterial zur Verwendung in klinischen Leistungsuntersuchungen bereitstellen.
Analytische Leistungsuntersuchungen liegen außerhalb des Anwendungsbereiches dieses Dokuments.
ANMERKUNG2 Wenn die Entnahme von Untersuchungsmaterial speziell für die analytische Leistungsuntersuchung ein zusätzliches Entnahmerisiko für die Versuchspersonen darstellt, können einige der Elemente dieses Dokuments (ins
besondere die Anhänge) nützlich sein, um die Sicherheit der Versuchspersonen zu gewährleisten.
Klinische Leistungsuntersuchungen, die aus anderen Gründen als Zulassungszwecke vor und nach dem Inver
kehrbringen durchgeführt werden, z.B. zu Zwecken der Erstattung, fallen nicht in den Anwendungsbereich dieses Dokuments.
ANMERKUNG3 Einige der Elemente dieses Dokuments können für das Design solcher Untersuchungen nützlich sein, einschließlich der Sicherheit der Versuchspersonen und der Datenintegrität.
Dieses Dokument enthält keine Sicherheitshinweise für Labormitarbeiter oder anderes Personal, das das Untersuchungsmaterial entnimmt.
ANMERKUNG4 Diese Informationen sind in anderen Veröffentlichungen[1][12][13] enthalten.
ANMERKUNG5 Anwender dieses Dokuments können in Betracht ziehen, ob andere Normen und/oder Anforderungen auch für das In-vitro-Diagnostikum gelten, das Gegenstand der klinischen Leistungsuntersuchung ist, z.B. können in dem Fall, in dem es ein In-vitro-Diagnostikum und ein Medizinprodukt gibt, die in einem integrierten System verwendet werden (z.B. eine Lanzette, ein IVD-Teststreifen und ein Blutzuckermessgerät), Aspekte sowohl dieses Dokuments als auch von ISO14155 berücksichtigt werden.

Annex ZA
(informative)
Relationship between this European Standard and the General Safety and
Performance Requirements of Regulation (EU) 2017/746 aimed to be
covered
This European standard has been prepared under a Commission’s standardisation request [Full
reference to the request “M/xxx”] to provide one voluntary means of conforming to the General Safety
and Performance Requirements of Regulation (EU) 2017/746 of 5 April 2017 concerning in vitro
diagnostic medical devices [OJ L 117].
Once this standard is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Regulation, compliance
with the normative clauses of this standard given in Table ZA.1 confers, within the limits of the scope of
this standard, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding General Safety and Performance
Requirements of that Regulation, and associated EFTA regulations.
NOTE 1 Where a reference from a clause of this standard to the risk management process is made, the risk
management process needs to be in compliance with Regulation (EU) 2017/746. This means that risks have to be
‘reduced as far as possible’, ‘reduced to a level as low as reasonably practicable’, ‘reduced to the lowest possible
level’, ‘reduced as far as possible and appropriate’, ‘removed or reduced as far as possible’, ‘eliminated or reduced
as far as possible’, ‘prevented’ or ‘minimized’, according to the wording of the corresponding General Safety and
Performance Requirement.
NOTE 2 The manufacturer’s policy for determining acceptable risk must be in compliance with General Safety
and Performance Requirements 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19 of the Regulation.
NOTE 3 This Annex ZA is based on normative references according to the table of references in the European
Foreword, replacing the references in the core text.
NOTE 4 When a General Safety and Performance Requirement does not appear in Table ZA.1, it means that it is
not addressed by this European Standard.
