Derisk market access for pharmaceutical companies wanting to integrate Ypsomed's digital health

Ypsomed has received FDA 510(k) clearance for SmartPilot, a digital add-on that transforms the YpsoMate autoinjector into a connected device. SmartPilot automatically captures injection data—such as time, injection outcome, and user errors—and transmits it via Bluetooth to patients’ smartphones. This milestone reinforces Ypsomed’s commitment to intelligent, patient-centered design and paves the way for smarter, data-driven selfcare. This clearance enables:

Reduce Time to Market

This approval is a milestone that reduces time to market for any pharmaceutical company wanting to integrate Ypsomed’s digital health with their drug.

 

Broad Applications

As the first FDA-cleared connectivity solution for autoinjectors, SmartPilot serves as a predicate device for any future FDA submissions, thereby paving the way for future therapy areas.

 

Safe and Effective Connected Devices

SmartPilot enhances self-injection safety, enables real-time monitoring, and empowers healthcare providers with insights.

 

What is 510(k) Clearance?

A 510(k) is a premarket notification to the FDA, demonstrating that a medical device is safe and effective by proving it is substantially equivalent to a device that is already on the market. It thereby:

  • ensures regulatory compliance
  • confirms the safety and efficacy of the product
  • authorizes the marketing of SmartPilot in the US

This regulatory pathway is independent from the drug approval process.
