One-Day Course
Monday, Nov. 18; 8:30am – 5:00pm
Ms. Kim Huynh-Ba, Pharmalytik Consulting, Newark, DE
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Analytical laboratories play key roles in the pharmaceutical industry. The generation of data that ensure its reliability and allow for post-analysis verification of its authenticity is critical to the drug development process; thus, keeping the analytical method in compliance with FDA, ICH and USP regulations is a challenge for analytical scientists. This course will review the current regulations using lifecycle approach to analytical procedures of pharmaceutical products, such as FDA validation guidance, ICH Q2(R2) revision, ICH Q14 concepts, and USP <1220>. Different aspects of validation throughout development phases to establish critical acceptance criteria will also be discussed to establish change control strategies for analytical procedures and application of quality risk management to support continual improvement. Participants are encouraged to discuss their practices on validation of analytical procedures and challenges to maintain compliance
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
Analytical chemists, GMP staff scientists, supervisors, directors, investigators in QC lab, R&D, production, manufacturing, contract labs, quality assurance, regulatory affairs, laboratory auditors, lab inspectors, data reviewers, lab investigators. This course is not intended for microbiologists.
