It is our understanding that you wish to compare features of a drug-delivery system for a class II medical device and a drug-delivery system which is not classified as a medical device. The latter cannot be presented as a stand-alone device, but must be presented in the context of the drug & device. Although it may be possible to make non-therapeutic comparisons of the device features, the content is subject to the PAAB code provisions.
