Regulatory Framework

Regulatory & Quality by Design

Arvix products are developed within a comprehensive quality framework designed to meet regulatory requirements and support hospital compliance processes.

HCT/P 361 Positioning

Arvix Biologics products are regulated as Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Products (HCT/Ps) under 21 CFR Part 1271. Our products meet the criteria outlined in 21 CFR 1271.10(a) for regulation solely under Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act.

This regulatory pathway requires compliance with donor eligibility determination, current good tissue practice, establishment registration, and product listing requirements. Arvix maintains systems designed to address these regulatory obligations.
