“A major challenge and opportunity for health regulators, academia and pharmaceutical industry”
Saturday 6 September 2008
at the Kervansaray Hotel, Antalya, Turkey HALL A
A one-day workshop organised as pre-satellite to the International Pharmaceutical Technology Symposium
Moderators: Dr Mansoor Khan (US FDA), Dr Tom Sam (FIP)
Co-sponsored by
FIP’s Industrial Pharmacy Section
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
The aims of the Quality by Design workshop are: 1.to give a concise overview of current ICH and regional guidelines on Pharmaceutical Development, Process Analytical Technology and Quality Risk Management
2.to present examples of implementation
The format of the Quality by Design workshop is:
· Plenary presentations by leading international experts
· For each session case studies showing real-life examples
· Panel discussion at the end of the day
Goal of the workshop:
With the advent of Quality by Design, pharmaceutical companies are implementing science and risk based approaches. From a regulatory point of view these approaches are backed by the new ICH Q8 guideline on Pharmaceutical Development, the new ICH Q9 guideline on Quality Risk Management and the ICH Q10 guideline on Pharmaceutical Quality Systems. Moreover regional guidelines exist providing guidance on Process Analytical Technology practices. This new quality thinking will substantially influence daily practice, procedures and processes for regulators and industry. Academics teaching Pharmaceutical Technology need to understand the implications and revamp their curriculum as needed.
The goal of this conference is to provide the participants in just one day with understanding of the concept of quality by design, allowing them to communicate on quality by design with their stakeholders both inside and outside their department.
