Delivery Device Functional Scrutiny: Can You Pass (Without) The Test?
In this article, Chief Editor Tom von Gunden considers the relationship between regulatory testing and the biopharma industry’s interest in leveraging drug delivery platform technologies to reduce regulatory burden in product development. Tom includes a conversation with guest columnist Doug Mead about waivers on testing in the context of FDA’s guidance on Essential Drug Delivery Outputs (EDDOs).

In this episode of The Combination Products Handbook: The Series, host Tom von Gunden discusses Chapter 2 of The Combination Products Handbook: A Practical Guide for Combination Products and Other Combined Use Systems (CRC Press) with the book’s editor and Chapter 2 author, Susan Neadle. Considering both product development and the global regulatory landscape, the discussion focuses on answers to the question posed by the chapter title, “What Is a Combination Product?”
After Essential Drug Delivery Outputs (EDDOs) have been identified, each will need to be controlled during the development of a drug delivery device. 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 provides the rationale for a risk-based approach to EDDO control strategies.
How are EDDOs (Essential Drug Delivery Outputs) determined during the design of a drug-led or biologic-led combination product? 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 lays out the foundational considerations.
In this episode of The Combination Products Handbook: The Series, host Tom von Gunden discusses Chapter 6 on risk management from 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 Edwin Bills.
