Objectives
This live online training is designed to address challenges such as mitigating risks of contamination, degradation and supply chain disruption. It provides industry professionals with the knowledge and skills needed to ensure compliance and optimise their processes for handling biological raw materials and active pharmaceutical ingredients.
Background
Raw materials, excipients and other products used in the manufacture of biologics must be well understood in terms of their role in the manufacturing process. Particularly in a GMP regulated environment, these raw materials, components and excipients require thorough control for consistent quality.
Therefore, all critical quality attributes should be known and appropriate risk mitigation and control strategies should be established. Since there is currently less written guidance on risk-based management of biological raw materials, European Pharmaceutical Enterprises, EBE, has prepared a concept paper entitled “Management and Control of Raw Materials Used in the Manufacture of Biological Medicinal Products.”
But other approaches can also be helpful - a look at Annex 1 for products that need to be sterile or have a low bioburden claim. Or the QbD approaches for consistent quality of products.
Target Group
This training will be highly valuable for:
Laboratory managers
Quality control managers
Analytical scientists
Senior laboratory personnel
QA Units
Qualified Persons (QPs)
It is designed for professionals from biopharmaceutical companies, ATMP developers, and manufacturers. Additionally, the training is relevant for employees of contract laboratories involved in method development, control testing, and quality assurance.
