Participants will also gain a clearer perspective of the Monocyte Activation Test (MAT).

This training program will provide attendees with the ultimate set of tools in order to help their firms properly create User Requirement Specifications (URS) for Computer Systems Validation (CSV) with emphasis on current industry trends in this particular area as well as current Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulatory trends and enforcement activity.

In this training program, attendees will learn how process robustness tools and metrics can be utilized to enhance process understanding and control. The new FDA paradigm is shifting to the expectation that organizations certified by other standards such as ISO and EFfCI demonstrate process robustness. It is the obligation of the primary pharmaceutical provider to ensure process robustness throughout the supply chain.

Attendees will come away from the training program with the tools they need to understand the various types of enclosures and how to select the correct type of enclosure for their process in order to meet regulations, protect the product, and ensure worker safety.

Common FDA audit findings will be discussed.

This training program will dispel mistaken paradigms regarding the risk based approach to water system lifecycle. It will detail how to eliminate variability – the cause of most deviations. Attendees will learn how to capitalize on the advantages of online analytical instrumentation (chemical and microbiological rapid methods).

This course will detail various sterilization methods and various approaches for the validation of a sterilization process.

This regulatory training will help attendees understand key benefits for implementing and maintaining an effective global regulatory plan. Attendees will also gain exposure to the elements and a methodology for global regulatory plan development and maintenance.

This training program will prepare attendees for new regulatory requirements that will arise and apply to your cell line, even if it was made before the requirements were in place. One of the first steps in a recombinant project is the development of the cell line to produce the protein of interest, generally years before the product will be filed for licensure. How do you peer into the future to make sure that when the day comes to file for approval that you have collected and saved all the necessary information on that cell line and your master and working cell banks? Don’t make the mistake of assuming that you can find all that information years from now – create a plan to ensure everything is documented and saved.

This training program will discuss each of the critical aspects of freeze drying and the related effects of variables. The course will also discuss sublimation rate variability, heat transfer, loss of protein activity, and freezing effects on primary drying.

This webinar will highlight rules governing HCT/Ps using case studies. Practical suggestions for compliance with FDA requirements and tips to negotiate with the agency regarding disputes with interpretation of the law will form the core of this training session.

This training program will detail best practices for documentation, list types of documents, and highlight key documentation requirements. Documentation is essential where FDA and other health authority regulations impose a special recordkeeping burden.
