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).

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 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?”

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, and Alan Stevens, regulatory head of complex devices and drug delivery systems at AbbVie, use a hypothetical case study for an on-body injector (OBI) to demonstrate a template for identifying EDDOs.

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.
