GMP and Regulatory Expectations for Early IND Products at San Diego
Online, March 1, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Overview: Any pharmaceutical worker who must deal with products both in early and latter phases of development should attend this course in order to be aware of the regulatory requirements that will affect operations dealing with these products.
Any pharmaceutical worker who must deal with products both in early and latter phases of development should attend this course in order to be aware of the regulatory requirements that will affect operations dealing with these products. The modifications to the GMPs for early phase products have modified the GMPs in such a way as to reduce requirements to allow more efficient work. At the same time some of the things that may appear to have changed, have not, and the pharmaceutical worker should be aware of this. This course will present, in one place, the regulations and guidelines that apply to early phase products. In some cases these will not be regulations, but needs that, if met, will increase the efficiency of activities as a product proceeds through the development process. The course will present these items in the order of product development from the point of R & D activities to the completion of Phase 2 clinical trials.
