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.
The discussion highlights key aspects of a biopharma organization’s business and operations that must be effectively integrated when developing drugs and devices in tandem. These include imperatives such as establishing common terminology, applying QbD (Quaility by Design) principles, and managing supplier controls for providers of constituent parts.
How are EDDOs (Essential Drug Delivery Outputs) related to Design Controls during the design and development of a combination product? In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event EDDOs Revisited: Putting Essential Drug Delivery Outputs Into Practice, consultant Susan Neadle of Combination Products Consulting Services, LLC illustrates how the concept of Design Outputs fits within the broader context of Design Controls.
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.
