2015 - Webinar On Quality by Design (QbD) for Development and Validation of Analytical Methods

Description :
Using the QbD approach for development and validation will result in more robust analytical methods. Advantages are easier method transfer, longer revalidation cycles and fewer or no methods specific Out-of-Specification situations when used in routine. In addition, FDA, USP and international agencies promote the QbD approach because it is expected that such performance based routine methods can be changed within the analytical target profile (ATP) without regulatory resubmission and approval. Moreover, the new FDA Method Validation Guide suggests using QbD elements for development and validation. Because there is no or little experience with the QbD approach for analytical methods, the industry has many questions.
For easy implementation, attendees will receive:
Master plan - Template and examples: Development and Validation of Analytical Methods through QbD
SOP - Development and Validation of Analytical Methods through Quality by Design
Checklist - Validation of Analytical Methods according to the FDA Guidance 2015
