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.
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.
What changes in approaches to risk management will the addition of ISO 14385 trigger? 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 when and how organizations will now need to address risk management within the context of design development and controls.
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.
