Supporting the TBT Agreement with Good Regulatory Practices Implementation Options for APEC Members<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nTo promote regulatory convergence, the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), launched in 2018 the \u201cRoadmap to Promote Regulatory Convergence for Medical Device Regulatory System\u201d. This work item \u201caims to promote international harmonization initiatives (i.e., International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF) and former Global Harmonization Task Force (GHTF) Guidance Documents), build regulatory capacity and knowledge, and support harmonized implementation efforts among APEC economies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Based on this proposal, a \u201cCore Curriculum for Medical Device\u201d was developed to provide training and capacity building for regulators \u201cto gain greater understanding of international best practices, achieve harmonized approaches, and facilitate regulatory convergence for medical devices in APEC economies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
