1. Risk Management and the New QMSR 7/11/2024

   What changes in approaches to risk management will the addition of ISO 14385 trigger? In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event New FDA QMSR: Its Role in Part 4 Compliance for Combination Products, consultant Ed Bills of Edwin Bills Consultant discusses when and how organizations will now need to address risk management within the context of design development and controls.

2. The Role of ISO 13485 in the New QMSR 7/11/2024

   What does the addition of ISO 13485 as reference in the new QMSR mean for those working to comply with 21 CFR 820? In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event New FDA QMSR: Its Role in Part 4 Compliance for Combination Products, consultant Laurie Auerbach of Compliance Prodigies explains the relationship between the two guidance documents.

3. Considering Human Factors In Combination Product Design And Use 3/7/2025

   In this episode of The Combination Products Handbook: The Series, host Tom von Gunden discusses Chapter 7 on human factors engineering (HFE) from The Combination Products Handbook: A Practical Guide for Combination Products and Other Combined Use Systems (CRC Press) with the chapter’s co-authors.

4. Defining and Regulating Combination Products: An Evolutionary Journey 10/15/2024

   In this episode of The Combination Products Handbook: The Series, host Tom von Gunden discusses Chapter 1 of The Combination Products Handbook: A Practical Guide for Combination Products and Other Combined Use Systems (CRC Press, 2023) with the book’s editor, Susan Neadle. Given that the initial chapter was penned by the FDA’s John “Barr” Weiner, the discussion focuses on reasons for establishing the historical and regulatory context for combination products early in the handbook’s topic coverage.

5. Confirming EDDOs Based on "Device Dependence" 10/9/2024

   Among the characteristics of a device design feature that helps identify it as an Essential Drug Delivery Output (EDDO) is “device dependent.” In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event The FDA Guidance on EDDO: What to Know, What to Do, consultant Susan Neadle of Combination Products Consulting Services, LLC explains the differences between the concepts of device-dependent versus device-independent and illustrates why only the former is applicable to an EDDO.

6. Why Start A URRA Early In Combination Product Design? 12/11/2024

   Both a URRA (Use-Related Risk Analysis) and IFU (Instructions for Use) can help to mitigate the risk of user misuse of a combination product. In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event Human Factors Risk Analysis: Leveraging URRA And UFMEA Tools, Shannon Hoste, chief scientific officer at Pathway for Patient Health, offers rationale for starting and conducting the URRA ahead of developing or finalizing IFU.

7. Understanding The Change From EPR To EDDO 10/9/2024

   Why does the FDA’s new guidance on drug-led or biologic-led device design include a change in terminology from Essential Performance Requirements (EPRs) to Essential Drug Delivery Outputs (EDDOs)?  In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event The FDA Guidance on EDDO: What to Know, What to Do, Alan Stevens,  regulatory head of complex devices and drug delivery systems at AbbVie and formerly at FDA, offers his perspective on how the change in terminology clarifies key concepts related to design controls.

8. URRA And UFMEA: Together Or Separate For Combination Products? 12/11/2024

   Both uFMEA (Use Failure Mode Effects Analysis) and URRA (Use-Related Risk Analysis) tools are available during combination product development for conducting risk assessments related to human factors. In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event Human Factors Risk Analysis: Leveraging URRA And UFMEA Tools, Natalie, Abts, head of human factors engineering at Genentech, and Shannon Hoste, chief scientific officer at Pathway for Patient Health, discuss scenarios in which a uFMEA might be used to inform a URRA regulatory submission.

9. What Is the Impact of the New QMSR on 21 CFR Part 4? 7/11/2024

   In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event New FDA QMSR: Its Role in Part 4 Compliance for Combination Products, DDL Executive Editor Fran DeGrazio enlists consultants Laurie Auerbach of Compliance Prodigies and Ed Bills of Edwin Bills Consultant to summarize where Part 4 is documented in the new guidance.

10. Preparing For Combination Product Regulatory Inspections 4/11/2025

    In this episode of The Combination Products Handbook: The Series, host Tom von Gunden discusses Chapter 9 of The Combination Products Handbook: A Practical Guide for Combination Products and Other Combined Use Systems (CRC Press) with the book’s editor, Susan Neadle, and chapter co-author Kim Trautman.
