25_DDL_Regulatory_Reconnaissance_logo_color GenAI: The Muscle Behind Strong Regulatory Intelligence For Combination Products

In this article, combination product consultant Doug Mead provides the rationale and offers guidance for using GenAI tools to search regulatory databases. He shows the benefits for biopharma developers of conducting “precedent research” into previous regulatory pathways and results for similar or related drug delivery product submissions.

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.

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 asks consultants Laurie Auerbach of Compliance Prodigies and Ed Bills of Edwin Bills Consultant to identify which organization in a combination product manufacturing process are responsible for design controls – the sponsor company, the contracted component provider, or both.

In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live online event, Next-Gen Drug Delivery: Rethinking Routes For New Therapies, Carolyn Dorgan, director of technical services at device design consultancy Suttons Creek, outlines key management considerations for biopharma companies developing combination therapies. These include suppliers, partnerships, quality, container closure, and regulatory. 

In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live online event, Innovations In Drug Delivery: Opportunities For Enhancing Familiar, Mature Approaches, host Fran DeGrazio asks panelists James Wabby of biopharmaceutical company AbbVie and Carolyn Dorgan and Courtney Evans of device consultancy Suttons Creek to comment on trends and advances they anticipate in the next phase of delivery development. Those include combination therapies, nanotechnology, reconstitution, and microfluidics.
