In this episode of Sit and Deliver, host Tom von Gunden talks with Merck VP of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Clinical Supply Allen Templeton about formulation and device considerations for combination products and other delivery systems deployed across a range of molecule types and sizes. The conversation takes them from small molecules, through peptides and mAbs, to large molecule biologics, across various routes of administration including oral, injectable, and inhalation.
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.
Principal Scientist George Mihov and Global Biomaterials Director Lukasz Koroniak from DSM-Firmenich join Supplier Horizons host Tom von Gunden to discuss partnering with pharma on formulation development. Among the topics covered are translational research, materials development, and complex molecules required for biologic-based therapies.
Is CAPA still part of the requirements picture for the new QMSR? 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 changes in the treatment of corrective and preventive actions.
