Overview: Auditing an API CMO or any API supplier is a specialty that requires knowledge and experience that is gained through exposure to the unique attributes associated with API manufacturing.
API manufacturing has similar regulatory GMP expectations as drug products, but not identical in is specific requirements and application. The nature of API manufacturing and its usual purification processes all influence how an API process should operate. Knowing what the FDA expects and how these regulators apply API GMP is important to API purchasers and drug product firms. Reducing risk and protecting the quality of a Drug Product (DP) is critical to the DP firm's success. The webinar will focus on the Q7 and FDA GMP requirements, what are the key contractual requirements and what should be negotiated and documented within quality agreements with a CMO firm.
Why Should You Attend: Attending this webinar will help you identify what you need to know and examine during an audit of your CMO or API suppliers. The webinar leader will help you identify key regulatory and industrial issues associated with API manufacturing. You are purchasing more than a chemical or biological material. You are purchasing a material that can carry with it hidden risks if not properly examined and controlled. Such examination is not always productive if you rely simply on testing protocols. You need to learn where to look and what to focus on during any on-site audit. While understanding the applicable GMP is important, how to apply the GMP and what to establish with a CMO is critical to your supply chain.

Following his retirement, he established a consulting business specializing in API GMP issues and the training of personnel covering the ICH Q7A Guidance as well as the Excipient GMP (IPEC) Guidance. As a voting member of the ICH Expert Work Group (EWG) that developed and negotiated this new international standard, Max is uniquely qualified to share and explain the EWG’s intent of this new guidance. His involvement in this new API GMP pre-dates the ICH activity itself.
His more than 40-year career in the Pharmaceutical Industry includes numerous memberships and chairs of committees. He founded and chaired the Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association’s Bulk Pharmaceutical Committee of the Quality Control Section. This chair lasted thru the reorganization of PMA into PhRMA and until Max’s retirement in 2001. He has presented at numerous meetings and training programs including SOCMA, PDA, DIA, PhRMA, Barnett, and IIR both domestically and overseas.
,br> Max was named Topic Leader for the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers Association’s (PhRMA) ICH Q7A team that developed the API GMP document for ICH. He represented USA industry at the PIC/S Canberra Conference which preceded the ICH API activities and worked with FDA during the 1980 ? 2000 era addressing all of the API industry related regulatory issues including the 1987 NDA Re-Write Guidelines and GMP activities. He was one of five invited industry representatives at the WHO/CDC/FDA Diethylene Glycol Contamination Prevention Workshop that followed the Haitian tragedy where almost 100 children died. This workshop developed recommendations for consideration by the Pan American Health Organization and WHO. Max was named as PhRMA’s representative on the FDA PQRI initiative that developed the initial Bulk Substance projects.
He was Vice Chair of the USP Pharmaceutical Waters Expert Committee (2000-2005) and had been re-elected to another 5-year term (2005-2010) as a member on this USP Expert committee. In 2011, USP has appointed Max to three USP Expert Panels covering various Water Subjects of interest to USP. Max conducts training and consultations on API GMP (ICH Q7A) and other FDA Compliance issues. While specializing in API, Max’s experience provides him with expertise in many areas of FDA compliance including Excipients, laboratory, documentation, sterile and oral dosage forms as well as devices, diagnostics and radiopharmaceuticals.
For his contribution to Q7A, he was awarded the USA FDA Commissioner’s Special Citation “For outstanding cooperation and achievement in developing an internationally harmonized good manufacturing practice guidance for active pharmaceutical ingredients used in human drug products."
He is a member of numerous professional organizations. He is on the Editorial Board of the Journal of GXP Compliance, the Editorial Advisory Board of Pharmaceutical Outsourcing and the Advisory Board of the GMP Manual, Maas & Peither AG ? GMP Publishing. Max is listed in numerous editions of Who’s Who including Who’s Who in America and is a graduate of Brooklyn College of the City University of New York.
