Developers of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms have found themselves returning repeatedly to the U.S. FDA for seemingly modest updates to their products, a problem that may soon be relieved by an FDA draft guidance on predetermined change control for AI and ML. However, Brad Thompson of Epstein, Becker & Green, P.C., told BioWorld that the terms of the draft “hugely increases the burden on developers to plan ahead” in order to obtain that postmarket relief from repeated 510(k) filings, a concession that device manufacturers and software developers may be more than willing to make.
