Expectations for meaningful hazard analysis, hazardous conditions, and documentation have always existed by regulatory agencies. There is an increased awareness of the importance of design activities to support the production of safe and effective product. Product risk management is a required tool to drive and direct resource constrained product design, manufacture and validation activities in the company. High-profile field problems indicate that such activities are not yet adequately planned executed, and visibility maintained. There is a failure to fully utilize the power of current risk management tools. Effective use of such risk management tools can help address the growing push by the public and the FDA, to "toughen" its approach to product clearance and approval, while reducing liability issues. Why you should attend: The U.S. FDA has stated that the use of a medical device or pharmaceuticals entails some degree of risk. In fact, any medical procedure / intervention does. A manufacturer is responsible to identify those risks, and take reasonable steps to mitigate them as far as practical and given the 'state of the art' at the time. ISO 14971 and ICH Q9 provide accepted methodologies by which to perform and document such an analysis and is accepted by the FDA. These activities can also be used as a method to train new hires, especially in Marketing, QA/RA, Engineering, and Manufacturing. This webinar will address the procedures, provide and discuss suggested templates, necessary to develop or modify and then use the ISO 14971 and Q9 models to perform and document such activities for any medical product. It will examine the additional actions necessary to make it a useful product reference, CAPA, root cause / failure investigation, and validation prioritization, and training tool, and how to maintain it as a “living document”.

Designing and implementing a dress code and dress policies for the workplace has become more complex today and should be addressed from many different angles: from creating a professional image to promoting a safe environment. Both the reasons and benefits for having a policy will be addressed as well as how to meet the needs of a diverse workforce. Before deciding on a formal dress code or updating your current one, many different approaches should be explored so that your decisions will promote a professional, safe and comfortable environment that reflects your culture in a positive manner. Why you should attend: It will cover your reasons and rights as an employer to establish and enforce a dress code and how to develop and adopt one that complements your business. Considerations range from what is considered professional attire to cultural and generational preferences. We will discuss how to establish clear guidelines for employees, the reasons behind decisions for dress and how to effectively and legally implement an effective and fair policy. Areas Covered In the Session: Reasons to have a Dress Code Who will benefit: Chief Human Resource Officers Start: 01/10/2012 10:00 am
The webinar focuses on effective implementation of QRM through the understanding of the ICH Q9 process and principles of QRM. By reviewing the standard terminology of risk management and laying the foundation for a more practical approach to applying the QRM principles of ICH Q9 to any biopharmaceutical manufacturing process and equipment, it enables you to speak the same "language of risk" as those of the regulators and thereby significantly reduces your companies exposure to audit failures. Risk management activities involve processes, methods, and tools for identifying, assessing and managing risks. These activities are conducted in a disciplined environment. It requires proactive decisions to continuously assess what could go wrong during the manufacturing of any product. This webinar addresses how to identify the critical risks and mitigate them. It provides a systemic prospective of QRM using the Swiss cheese model. Specifically, it focuses on key factors for a successful Risk Management process, the 7 key concepts in FDA's systems approach thinking to Risk Management, the required QRM documents and their contents and Risk Assessment methods and tools. The webinar aims to equip and empower attendees with the knowledge of basic risk management terminology, the deployment of appropriate tools for risk assessment, FDA's audit care about for QRM , as well as how to apply risk management principles to various aspects of a quality system. Among the topics to be discussed are the key steps in the identification of risks, establishing a scoring criteria to analyze identified risks, use of the 5-p model for risk reduction, risk acceptance basics including factors that establish a risk acceptability criteria, elements of a Risk Control strategy and what and when to communicate with risk stakeholders. Since Risk Management is a dynamic process, topics will also include how to continuously monitor risks and integrate them into a continual improvement strategy, along with the management's role of ensuring the adherence to the strategy. Why you should attend: ICH Q8, Q9 and Q10 have been the bedrock of the regulatory agencies' regulations for pharmaceutical cGMPs for the 21st century. While adoption of these has been slow, some like Q9 and Q10 are increasingly coming into acceptance by the industry. Adoption of concepts such as Q8's QbD have been slow because it is still in its infancy and will require more time if it is to have the transformative effect first conceived by ICH. However, QRM (Q9) and Quality Systems (Q10) are increasingly coming into acceptance by the industry since their understanding is not as intricate and complex as QbD is. It is becoming increasingly evident that application of QRM (Q9) techniques would provide the refinement tools to formulate and validate the QbD (Q8) models of the processes. Hence a good understanding and application of QRM techniques and tools would be instrumental in the development of realistic QbD models that are more reflective of true process characterization and actual process behavior. The approach to quality and risk management is dynamic in nature due to the evolution of science and technology. This dynamic nature imposes a challenging situation for companies since they are now required to keep themselves fully trained and informed of the changing regulations. Additionally, with the increasing formalization of QRM tools and techniques, regulatory agencies are requiring companies to establish Quality Risk Management Plans that are being used as starting points for their audits. The requirement for performing QRM coupled with QRM's dynamic nature increases companies' risk of audit failures. Citations arising from such audit failures are being addressed through a consistent documentable approach to risk management throughout the company irrespective of the business and manufacturing processes. This webinar addresses the "common language of risk" coupled with the documentation strategy required to maintain a defensible risk control strategy to meet compliance requirements.

This webinar will examine the FDA's recently instituted annual "Strategic Priorities" initiative, with emphasis on 2012. Such a review will focus on the broad range of issues a company's senior management and QA/RA need to consider in their annual Management Review of their existing quality management system. This review takes on added urgency as a result of the stated intent of the Agency to get tougher across the board in its expectations for the medical industry and what the FDA and industry need to do internally. An additional review of recent information from the Agency, other goals of the Agency that have already been translated into action in the past year will provide direction in areas of concern and what to expect in the future. This will be performed by a review of applicable FDA "Strategic Priorities" areas for required review or related industry problem areas. The result will be a basis for such a management review and a listing of likely milestones and tasks. Anticipation and addressing of weak spots proactively will further prove a company is "in control", assist in timely review of submissions to the Agency, and in any remediation efforts. Why you should attend: Each year companies are to perform a complete review of their quality management system and its ability to meet the current GMP's. The FDA has added a "Strategic Priorities" initiative that can assist companies to proactively address areas of GMP concern. There is a major shift in the emphasis of the U.S. FDA cGMP compliance audits, clinical trial expectations, product submissions and company response requirements. In short, all regulatory areas are under evaluation by the FDA, and need to be revisited by a company's QA/RA and its senior management. There is "no business as usual". This change in focus has a major impact on interpretation of individual compliance objectives, cGMP objectives, and measurements of success. Recent negative publicity on pharmaceuticals, devices, as well as events in unrelated industries have put pressure on the Agency to "get tough on compliance / enforcement". This webinar will trigger such a response by an examination / review of FDA's "must-have" for corporate CGMP compliance.

This webinar will cover the process and benefits of using an empirical approach to design an optimized lyophilization cycle. Optimized lyophilization cycle design can be an extremely difficult and daunting task for the scientist that is unskilled or under skilled in the process. This is becoming even more prevalent as many of the molecules coming out of discovery are more complex, unstable, and require a very specific, multi component formulation to impart not only good chemical stability and physical stability to the active ingredient, but also good physical stability to the dried solids themselves. Unfortunately, many of the molecules that are used to help stabilize the chemical and physical stability of the active ingredient, impart poor physical stability to the dried solids and can make lyophilization cycle design difficult. The development scientist who understands and can apply these principles, will be much better equipped to develop robust cycles that can be used to produce quality products consistently, in the shortest amount of time possible, saving time and money. This webinar will start out with an introduction to thermal characterization including differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and freeze-dry microscopy (FDM) and how the information gained from these techniques can be used as the foundation for optimized cycle design. Next, the webinar will discuss, in detail, the process of designing the freezing, primary, annealing (if used), and secondary drying protocols for the cycle. In each case, the process will be broken down to understand the correct choice of the different controllable lyopohilizer parameters including shelf temperature, chamber pressure, and hold times. Also discussed, will be some of the specialized tools that can be used to aid the development scientist in cycle development including, the sample thief, the Pirani gauge, and thermocouples.

The topic of supply chain integrity and security is relatively new in Pharma, having gained prominence in recent years for the reasons described above. Breach of security related to criminal activity is where the issues are most visible and enforcement activity is actively taking place around the globe. In parallel, if we are looking for sustainable, root cause solutions, we must also turn our attention to supply chain integrity and deal with both security and integrity concurrently. An Oxford on-line dictionary definition of integrity is "the state of being whole and undivided". Over the last 40 years, the Pharma supply chain has fragmented to the point where it is a million miles from that state. There are now multiple business models, such as virtual, biotech, specialty Pharma, innovator, generics, biosimilars, etc and a divergence of supporting actors, such a contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs), contract research organizations (CROs), central laboratories, third party logistics providers, pre-wholesalers, wholesalers, specialty pharmaceutical providers (SPPs) etc. As a result, our supply chains have dis-integrated to the point where visibility and accountability have become blurred at the edges - and it is this disintegration that has opened the doors to criminal activity and errors in quality outcomes. The solution is not an easy one. It requires urgent action to mitigate activities of the 'bad guys', together with a longer term approach to ensure the 'good guys' get better at building and managing robust supply chains. This can only be achieved by collaboration between regulators, other enforcement agencies, technology providers and the industry itself. Where do we start? We must initially focus on the end-to-end supply chain in its current state. Chains of custody and ownership must be clearly identified and remediation actions agreed by responsible parties to plug the gaps that currently exist. For example, Quality and technical agreements must become far more 'process' orientated so that they become working documents shared between business partners, rather than merely a static list of tick boxes. Change control has to work on upstream and downstream impacts that might affect supply chain integrity and procurement must forge supply agreements that impose obligations for supply chain visibility on prospective partners. This and much more needs to happen and will be discussed in the session. Then we must turn attention to the building of supply chains for the future - the product development phase. This industry is unique in that the entire supply chain must be registered with competent authorities before approval to sell and post-launch changes have to be approved. This places a great responsibility on getting it right from the start. This is where the opportunity lay for sustainable improvements in the physical architecture of the supply chain and the underpinning management processes and information flows. A foundation for this has already been put in place by the regulators through FDA's 21st Century Modernization initiative and ICH Q8 - 11 guidelines. The key to translating these initiatives into meaningful supply chain improvements, however, it in understanding the patient value proposition and the organizational/cultural elements that must firstly be in place, and these are explored in some depth. Why should you attend: The Pharmaceutical supply chain has never been in such turmoil and under such attack from governments and regulators globally. The evidence is stark and mounting. Supply chain shortages in the US have moved even the President to demand urgent remediation; high level congressional committees have also asked searching questions of FDA and other involved stakeholders, in an attempt to discover what has been going on with high profile supply chain failures. Cargo theft, diversion and counterfeiting have become almost endemic, with detection and enforcement efforts stretched to the limit. Finally, and possibly most worrying of all, are the cases where materials have been adulterated or substituted with toxic alternatives (for economic gain) and have progressed undetected through one or more stages in the supply chain causing eventual patient death.

Why should you Attend: FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg recently announced several new enforcement initiatives. They are certain to impact your regulatory risk profile. How will you prepare for software quality, software validation and 21 CFR part 11 planning? Extensive use of automated manufacturing, laboratory, QA, QC, complaints, CAPA, Adverse Events systems puts companies at risk. FDA field staff has been trained on software validation and 21 CFR Part 11 inspection and enforcement. Many companies have fallen behind in their software validation practices. Now is the time for forward planning in this crucial area. This executive planning session discusses the key elements on which to focus. The attendee should leave this strategic planning session confident in knowing how FDA will approach software validation enforcement and how to prevent needless inspections, as well as how to satisfy an FDA inspector.

There is a need to implement an adequate formal level of change control during engineering projects (referred to as an Engineering Change Control) after the approval of the equipment/systems specifications in addition to the more formal change control after the qualification of these systems. The Engineering change control process will apply through design, construction and qualification up to the point that the system is considered installed/operational. The new Quality Systems guideline from the FDA states that the Quality function must be involved in the review of the design and subsequent changes to the design of facilities, equipment and systems that may impact the product quality. The question is - how much involvement is really necessary from all functional groups including the Quality group?
