The International Conference on Harmonization M7 text provides guidance on establishing acceptable levels of mutagenic impurities (MIs) . It also outlines the safety and quality risk management processes that manufacturers need to undertake to control MIs that may potentially affect the drug substance or drug product. Over the past decade,…

Continuous pharmaceutical manufacturing together with process analytical technology (PAT) provides a suitable platform for automatic feed-forward/feed-back (FF/FB) control of the end product quality as desired by quality by design (QbD)-based efficient manufacturing. The precise control of the quality of the pharmaceutical product requires proactive, corrective actions on the process/raw material…

Experts from CPhI Worldwide have shared their pharma predictions for 2015, suggesting that Continuous Manufacturing and QbD will expand, with FDA becoming ‘industry tutor’. However, pharma concerns about supply chain persist...
Cocrystals can help to address the manufacturability (flow, compaction, processability) as well as solubility/dissolution,hygroscopicity and stability properties of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API).
CAMO Software, leaders in multivariate data analysis software, and Lonza Group, a leading supplier to the pharma, biotech and specialty ingredients markets, have entered into an agreement where CAMO Software will deliver a PAT software solution for collecting, handling, storing, monitoring and modeling of PAT data. The solution will complement…
