Our Approach to Changes in EU IVDR Regulation
On May 26, 2022, the European Union (EU) In Vitro Diagnostics Regulation (IVDR) replaced prior regulations governing how lab-developed tests are regulated for EU and European Economic Area patient management purposes. Labcorp has conducted a comprehensive impact assessment based on our current understanding of available guidance to develop our strategic approach and recommendations for sponsors.
Our new Info Sheet describes how we are serving our sponsors, and strengthening support of clinical trials involving patients from this region.

Overview
Generating quality data starts with protocol- and visit-specific specimen collection kits that are accurately assembled and reach investigator sites on time. Global logistics experts monitor shipments to assure within stability delivery of specimens.
Consistent results are driven through automation and aligned technology and instrumentation platforms. Standardized processes and procedures are used across our global network of central labs – for specialized testing and for high-volume safety testing.
Sponsors and investigator sites can access test results in near real time to support patient care using the Labcorp Sponsor Portal and the Labcorp Investigator Portal.
When studies have been completed, samples can be stored in a Labcorp purpose-built biorepository. Storage for a broad range of specimen types is provided in secure, protected and monitored facilities. Stored sample inventory can be searched, requested and shipped for further testing needs.
