Can a diligent focus on patient safety during combination product development inadvertently lead to missed opportunities for device use enhancements? 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, discusses ways to keep the organization focused on developing quality products that enhance user adoptability while also mitigating user-related harm.
In this episode of The Combination Products Handbook: The Series, host Tom von Gunden discusses Chapter 4 of The Combination Products Handbook: A Practical Guide for Combination Products and Other Combined Use Systems with the book’s editor, Susan Neadle, and chapter co-author Mike Wallenstein. In the exchange, Susan and Mike share their perspectives on combination product CGMP’s, including regulatory definitions and differences in the U.S. and Europe, supplier controls, design controls, and manufacturer responsibilities.
In this episode of Supplier Horizons, host Tom von Gunden talks with Chief Commercial Officer Christian Jones of nanoparticle technology developer Nanoform about innovation in drug and biologics delivery. The discussion covers aspects of patient centricity such as aging populations, in-home self-administration, and personalized medicine. It also focuses on the use of nanotechnology in the delivery of high concentration formulations via oral and subcutaneous routes of administration.
What types of products in development may need to be assessed in accordance with the FDA’s URRA (Use-Related Risk Analysis) guidance? 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, describes several common scenarios that illustrate when a URRA approach may or may not be needed.
