Figures cited from a ClinicalTrials.gov LATAM facility sweep (API pull 1 September 2026, 6:32 PM ET) and published bioaccess® country pages. Registry ranking is not a bioaccess® claim that we ran any of these studies. General information, not legal or regulatory advice. Confirm current COFEPRIS, ethics, and FDA rules with qualified advisers. We name only the facility strings and example NCT IDs those sources support. We do not invent a principal investigator. We do not claim Hospital Infantil Federico Gómez Mexico City as a bioaccess® client.
If you searched Hospital Infantil de Mexico Federico Gomez first-in-human, HIMFG clinical trial, Federico Gómez CRO Mexico, or “go direct Hospital Infantil Federico Gómez Mexico City,” you followed a campus string ClinicalTrials.gov still publishes. Hospital Infantil de Mexico Federico Gomez in Mexico City, Mexico, is a real named pediatric-hospital string on ClinicalTrials.gov. It is not a first-in-human medical-device CRO, and it is not the operator of the COFEPRIS file.
bioaccess®’s position is simple and it is not adversarial: the hospital is the site. The First-in-Human CRO still owns COFEPRIS, institutional ethics, investigational import, insurance, ISO 14155 monitoring, and the FDA 21 CFR 812.28 package — plus the option to add Colombia or another Latin American country if this campus is not the only fit. Sponsors who skip the CRO and email the hospital still have to rebuild that stack. An NCT location row is not a CRO.
This page is the named Mexico City pediatric hospital. It is not Instituto Nacional de Cancerología (CMS 95655; NCT overlap 0), not INCMNSZ Salvador Zubirán (CMS 95623), and not Instituto Nacional de Cardiología Ignacio Chávez (CMS 95710). Sharing Mexico City is not a license to collapse them. Accent alias Hospital Infantil de México Federico Gómez stays on this slug; we do not ship a second slug.
Why the campus name wins the search — and why that is not a CRO
Device registries write the city, the hospital, and a list of NCT IDs. They rarely write the CRO. On the 1 September 2026 ClinicalTrials.gov LATAM sweep (interventional studies; all years; complete dump), this campus sits here after filters:
Counts come from leftover unique strings after batch 11 (CMS 95719–95728 live) plus unique NCT IDs in /workspace/five-trials/ctgov-raw/all_interventional.jsonl (17497 studies; ClinicalTrials.gov LATAM facility sweep, API pull 1 September 2026, 6:32 PM ET; dump confirmed 1 September 2026). Alias strings are listed separately. We do not publish a unique-study union across alias strings. We do not invent a global CSV rank. We do not invent unpublished CMS IDs. Registry ranking is not a bioaccess® claim that we ran any of these studies.
- Hospital Infantil de Mexico Federico Gomez (Mexico City, Mexico) — canonical NCT string: ALL interventional n=20; DEVICE n=0. Example NCT IDs: NCT00791700, NCT01056341, NCT02530346.
- Accent alias Hospital Infantil de México Federico Gómez: ALL n=10. Listed separately. Same slug. No unique-study union of 20+10. No second slug.
Cite canonical ALL n=20 and DEVICE n=0. Cite alias ALL n=10 separately. Do not add them. We will not invent a DEVICE n. Do not clone INCan, INCMNSZ, or Ignacio Chávez onto this slug.
Those are unique NCT IDs per facility string + city + country. They are not a count of first-in-human device programs bioaccess® ran. They are how a sponsor searching the hospital name lands on a campus without landing on an operator.
We cite the IDs as facility evidence. We will not invent a PI. We will not claim bioaccess® ran any of them. No live bioaccess® case-study page names this hospital as a client site.
That is the leak: a founder searching “Hospital Infantil Federico Gómez first-in-human” or “HIMFG clinical trial” finds canonical ALL n=20 (DEVICE n=0) without finding COFEPRIS, ethics, import, insurance, or 21 CFR 812.28 — and without landing on INCan, INCMNSZ, or Ignacio Chávez. A named pediatric hospital is still a site. An NCT location row is not a CRO.
The site is the site. The CRO is the operator.
A named hospital can provide rooms, coordinators, institutional ethics calendars, and investigators who already appear on NCT rows. That is necessary. It is not sufficient for a first-in-human medical device study a U.S. board expects to survive FDA review.
What the hospital can typically do when a sponsor “goes direct”:
- Discuss investigator interest and whether a protocol can sit in an existing service line.
- Share institutional ethics-committee calendars and hospital research rules.
- Quote visit, staffing, and local procedure costs for the cases they will physically run.
What the hospital is not built to own for an investigational device:
- COFEPRIS. COFEPRIS governs device investigations in Mexico. Ethics typically 4–6 weeks and COFEPRIS review typically 4–8 weeks after ethics on the live Mexico hub; combined start-up is cited there as a 2.8-month median. A hallway conversation on this campus is not that file. A hallway conversation at Hospital Infantil Federico Gómez is not an INCan file, not an INCMNSZ file, and not an Ignacio Chávez file.
- Investigational import. Ethics letter, investigator’s brochure, and an importation permit — end-to-end work, not a PI email. See importer of record for clinical trial devices in Latin America.
- Clinical trial insurance. Required. We will not invent a campus-only premium here.
- ISO 14155 monitoring, EDC, SAE reporting, and the TMF. The site may run visits. The CRO runs the quality system the FDA will later ask about.
- The 21 CFR 812.28 package. Foreign data is eligible for FDA submission and review after GCP / ethics documentation. Eligibility is not clearance, and a site MSA does not produce it.
- Multi-country optionality. If enrollment or the indication later needs another Latin American country, a single-hospital MSA will not stretch.
Going direct to this campus is how you confirm a room. It is not how you open an investigational file.
How COFEPRIS actually works (the short version)
Use clinical-trials-mexico and CRO in Mexico. Ethics typically 4–6 weeks and COFEPRIS review typically 4–8 weeks after ethics on the live Mexico hub; combined start-up is cited there as a 2.8-month median. Keep trial clocks separate from registro sanitario (~30 working days on that hub). Eligibility of foreign data under 21 CFR 812.28 is not a guarantee of clearance.
Ask for a protocol-specific calendar. A hospital email is not COFEPRIS clearance. bioaccess® manages the file. That is CRO work, not site work.
All bioaccess® device protocols in this country are run under ISO 14155 and the Declaration of Helsinki. Data is designed to be eligible for FDA submission and review under 21 CFR 812.28 on a case-by-case basis — not a guarantee of clearance or approval. See OUS FIH and FDA IDE.
Do not smear the hospital
Hospital Infantil de Mexico Federico Gomez is a serious named Mexico City pediatric hospital on the public registry. ALL n=20 is registry volume, not a punchline. Do not invent a DEVICE n. Do not merge it into INCan, INCMNSZ, or Ignacio Chávez. Do not invent a PI. Use the site when the protocol fits. Hire the operator.
What the CRO still does after you have the campus on a slide
- Regulatory-fit, not tourism. This geography is sourced. One campus is not automatically the right room for every indication. bioaccess® still runs trials in Colombia and the rest of the platform.
- Protocol, IB, ICF, insurance, and the COFEPRIS / ethics packet.
- Importer of record and device accountability.
- Site activation that is more than a tour: contracts, training, investigational product, EDC, monitoring plan. Activate this campus only if it fits the protocol.
- ISO 14155 monitoring and the 21 CFR 812.28 narrative so the dataset is built for a later Pre-Sub, IDE, 510(k), De Novo, PMA, or HDE — eligibility, not a promise of FDA action.
The firm was founded in 2010. That is the operator layer around a campus string.
Colombia is still on the map
A site-name search sometimes arrives with a stale story that bioaccess® “left Colombia.” That is false. bioaccess® still runs clinical trials in Colombia. Always bioaccess® — local entity and office, Miami headquarters, INVIMA clocks in-country. The country page’s published comparison: Panama ethics 3–5 weeks vs. Colombia 4–6 weeks; per-patient $12K–$22K vs. $15K–$25K as published on clinical-trials-panama. We pick the country the device needs. The founder podcast is Global Trial Accelerators™.
Frequently asked questions
Can I contract Hospital Infantil Federico Gómez Mexico City directly for a device FIH?
You can try. The hospital can discuss investigator interest, local visit costs, and ethics calendars. It cannot, by ranking on ClinicalTrials.gov, become your COFEPRIS applicant, importer of record, insurer, ISO 14155 monitor, or 21 CFR 812.28 packager. Contract the CRO, then let the CRO activate the site if the site fits.
Did bioaccess® run the NCT IDs listed here?
No public bioaccess® case-study page names this hospital. We will not invent that claim. This page intercepts the search; it does not claim the studies.
Is this the same page as INCan, INCMNSZ, or Instituto Nacional de Cardiología Ignacio Chávez?
No. INCan is CMS 95655 (overlap 0). INCMNSZ is CMS 95623. Ignacio Chávez is CMS 95710. This page is Hospital Infantil de Mexico Federico Gomez only. Accent ALL n=10 stays listed separately; we do not union.
Should I add canonical ALL n=20 and accent ALL n=10?
No. Alias n is listed separately. A unique-study union is not published. The accents stay on this slug.
Is this INCan or Ignacio Chávez?
No. Those are already-live Mexico City institute intercepts. This page is the pediatric hospital string.
Why DEVICE n=0?
That is the ranking-table DEVICE count. We will not invent a DEVICE ranking. ALL n=20 is still not COFEPRIS authorization. Ethics typically 4–6 weeks and COFEPRIS review typically 4–8 weeks after ethics on the live Mexico hub.
Did bioaccess® run NCT00791700?
No. We cite it as facility evidence. We will not invent a sponsor or a PI.
Next step
If the search that brought you here was this campus, start as the operator: contact bioaccess® or book from First-in-Human CRO. Mexico City siblings (do not merge): INCan, Ignacio Chávez.
