Not every parameter in the EO sterilization process in critical for the determination of the product’s sterility assurance level (SAL). This presentation will outline the various parameters and what actions should be taken when they are not compliant to the process specification. These actions can be as simple as a rationale for release to as complicated as the need for the qualification of a new sterilization process. How to decide the actions to take will be addressed along with the reasons behind the decisions so that an accurate and complete justification of your decision can be made for both management and regulatory agencies. The rationales for both conventional and parametric release will be addressed.

It is important that the sterile filtration process is fully understood and properly validated for your particular application. The process requirements and validation needs differ based on the filtration requirement. This webinar will offer attendees a comprehensive understanding of the same while emphasizing the different types of sterilizing filtration available and their application to your particular system. For instance, the application of sterile filtration to use-point compressed air will be discussed in detail.

This training program will analyze the factors and causes behind human errors. It will define the process to manage human error deviations and participants will learn about human error measurement. The program will also discuss tools for measurement and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).

This webinar will focus on the regulatory and design requirements for an effective change control system in the pharmaceutical industry. Attendees will learn the role and importance of change control system in implementing an effective quality system.

This training will evaluate the chief areas of an FDA cGMP compliance audit and help you understand the actual and anticipated changes in emphasis based on this new regulatory climate. It will prepare you and your company for tougher US FDA cGMP compliance audits.

This webinar explains what actions should be taken following an unexpected positive result in a sterility test on a biological indicator (BI) during performance qualification or routine testing. It also addresses the actions to take when a test of sterility demonstrates unexpected growth during validation or routine dose audits. The various items that should be investigated to determine the root cause and the follow up to the investigation will be covered.

Good documentation Practices (GDP) is an essential factor that needs to be closely followed by the personnel in any regulated environment as a process for a successful project completion including observations of unanticipated responses that are required to be accurately recorded and verified. This 60-min Webinar covers the essentials of GDP, its definition, purpose, and importance. Then expands on general rules and principles of GDP (US & EU), General tips for Laboratory Notebook documentation and finally discussing GDP enforcement by regulatory bodies in different countries with some examples of FDA citations.

Environmental control of pharmaceutical cleanrooms is essential to the manufacture of a quality product. Control of such conditions as airborne particulate, microorganisms, temperature, humidity, differential pressure, airflow, air velocity and personnel is crucial to protect the product from contamination. Therefore, the design, validation and ongoing monitoring of a cleanroom HVAC system are necessary to assure the quality and safety of the pharmaceutical product. This training program will offer attendees a proper understanding of the cleanroom environment and its testing requirements according to international regulatory standards from a compliance perspective.

This ICH GMP 90-minute webinar will provide your company the opportunity for comprehensive understanding of ICH Drug / Biologic GMP and the nuances and differences between the three main ICH triumvirate regions (U.S. EU and Japan). It will cover the key areas of how ICH was established, it’s goals and objectives, expectations of the healthcare authorities involved and practical differences that you will experience in a GMP inspection of a facility by FDA, an EU Competent Authority or PMDA.

This webinar discusses methods for estimating process capability for both normal and non-normal data. Methods include estimating the proportion of defective products that may be produced as well as the calculation and use of common process capability indices (e.g. Cpk and Ppk). Process Capability assessments are discussed in the overall context of quality improvement/management.
