Process Enhancement through Quality-by-Design

 
  December 10, 2018  
     
 
CfPA-The Center for Professional Advancement, New Brunswick, NJ or Virtually
April 25-26, 2019


Who Should Attend?
This course is especially designed for professionals in the pharmaceutical and biopharma industries. However, the course can easily be applicable to encompass food and chemical processing. Managers, Engineers, Analytical Scientists, Formulators, Purchasing Agents working in these industries will benefit greatly. It is applicable to departments such as Production, Analytical R&D, Quality Assurance, Quality Control, Pharmacy R&D and Purchasing/Budget Office.

Course Description
This two-day intensive, accredited training is focused on the principles, legal underpinnings, tools, and practical applications of Process Analytical Technology (PAT), Quality by Design (QbD), and Continuous Manufacturing (CM). The first day will review the FDA, EMA, and ICH documentation that lay the groundwork for using PAT/QbD. It will also cover the concepts of risk, risk assessment, and risk management, which are the underpinning of Design of Experiments. It will also cover the tools needed for a successful PAT/QbD (and CM) program with examples of each technology. Examples of how risk analysis and validation of NIR tablet analyses were performed in an industrial setting. 

Day two will offer practical examples of Design of Experiment (solid dosage forms), an overview of Question Based Reviews (QbR), scale-up with PAT and QbD methodologies leading to fully continuous manufacturing (CM). This training will show how PAT may be used as a stand-alone concept, as the heart of QbD, and as the backbone of continuous manufacturing. At every point, time and cost savings, as well as increased quality with reduced risk are emphasized.

This course will encourage attendee participation and will offer opportunities for both group and individual informal discussions with the Course Director.
