In this episode of The Combination Products Handbook: The Series, host Tom von Gunden discusses Chapter 10 of 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 Fran DeGrazio. On the topic of supplier quality and controls, Susan and Fran discuss key considerations for using third-party suppliers of raw materials, constituent parts, and services in combination product development.

Among the characteristics of a device design feature that helps identify it as an Essential Drug Delivery Output (EDDO) is “device dependent.” 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 explains the differences between the concepts of device-dependent versus device-independent and illustrates why only the former is applicable to an EDDO.

In what ways are Essential Drug Delivery Outputs (EDDOs) different from design inputs for combination products? 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 explains the difference.

What does the addition of ISO 13485 as reference in the new QMSR mean for those working to comply with 21 CFR 820? In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event New FDA QMSR: Its Role in Part 4 Compliance for Combination Products, consultant Laurie Auerbach of Compliance Prodigies explains the relationship between the two guidance documents.

INHALATION DRUG DELIVERY RESOURCES

INHALATION DRUG DELIVERY SOLUTIONS

  • Advanced nanotechnology improves biologics with higher drug loads, better stability, new delivery routes, and enhanced performance in injectables, inhalation, and long‑acting therapies.

  • Unlock superior performance for peptides and proteins using nanotechnology. Achieve high drug loads for subcutaneous delivery and stable, aerodynamic dry powders for deep-lung inhalation.

  • Modern inhalation platforms, improved formulations, and greener propellants speed development and strengthen respiratory performance, with key factors guiding device choice and clinical readiness.

  • Large volume humidifiers and nebulizers – typically in sizes from 250 – 1000mL – can be specifically designed to fit existing delivery devices. Custom designs to facilitate the control of humidification in oxygen delivery can be developed.

  • This comprehensive suite of services encompasses the entire spectrum of user research, starting from the conceptualization of study designs to meticulous data analysis and comprehensive reporting.
