Who Should Attend
This comprehensive three-day course will be valuable to R&D personnel involved with all regulatory filings from IND to NDA. This would include Process Development Chemists preparing GMP API for clinical use as well as Analytical Chemists in stability sample testing, general analytical testing and method development. Personnel in Regulatory Affairs, Quality Assurance, and the Quality Control laboratories who are involved in testing, supervising, or managing all GMP/GLP activities will also benefit, including those whose job responsibilities require an in-depth knowledge of the FDA regulations and ICH guidelines, as applied to establishing regulatory specifications.
Learning Objectives
This course provides a step-by-step foundation for determining specifications for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API), Raw Materials, Intermediates, Drug Products, Excipients and Placebos. Curriculum will outline and detail the issues and guidelines surrounding FDA and ICH regulatory requirements. Specifically, this course will focus on learning the protocols needed to establish the specifications required to support all levels of development. Attendees are actively engaged through the use of workshops and in-depth discussion, including exercises on writing and revising specifications and the stability data required to support these specifications.
