Understanding And Implementing Cgmps

Practicing cGMP requires clear understanding at conceptual and implementation level and that too at shop floor and middle management level. This book is written in simple and easy to implement manner.

The FDA's (Food and Drug Administration) FSMA (Food Safety Modernization Act) is the most sweeping reform of United States food safety laws in more than 70 years. The key to successful implementation of FSMA rules depends on building a comprehensive Food Safety System with effective prerequisite programs in place and a well-designed Food Safety Plan that incorporates risk-based preventive controls to mitigate hazards. This book provides essential guidance for small to mid-sized businesses on how to design, implement, and maintain a world-class Food Safety Plan that conforms to FSMA regulations. With practical and up-to-date advice, the author offers a straight forward approach for readers to successfully migrate into FSMA. The inclusion of fully developed Food Safety Plans as well as examples of hazards and preventative controls make this a must-read not only for those that are new to the regulations, but also those with a plan already in place. FSMA and Food Safety Systems: A Guide to Understanding and Implementing the Rules is an indispensable resource for all those managing the manufacture of FDA regulated products, food safety regulators and educators, as well as scientists and students of food science and technology.

This title is a general introduction aimed at all those involved in the engineering stages required for the manufacturr of the active ingredient and its dosage forms.

Each year for the past three years, there have been about 50 new molecular medicines approved by the United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA), of which approximately 25% were new biopharmaceuticals. Over 200 recombinant proteins, monoclonal antibodies, antibody drug conjugates, fusion proteins, and Fab fragments are now in the marketplace in both the United States of America (USA) and European Union (EU). There are also now over 60 biosimilars available for all major classes of recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies. In addition, gene therapies using genetically engineered viruses and genetically engineered cells are now in the marketplace, and continually growing. This degree of change is reflected in the over 400 CMC regulatory compliance references listed in this book that were either issued or updated since the release of the third edition. Deficiencies in biopharmaceutical CMC regulatory compliance rarely result in termination of a product, but in can readily cause months if not years of delay in initiating clinical trials, or advancing clinical development stages, or even market approval. In summary, this book: Updates real-world CMC deficiency examples with current examples; Addresses current FDA and EMA requirements and expectations for CMC regulatory compliance; Now includes CMC regulatory compliance for the new gene-based biopharmaceuticals.

Pharmaceutical Quality by Design: Principles and Applications discusses the Quality by Design (QbD) concept implemented by regulatory agencies to ensure the development of a consistent and high-quality pharmaceutical product that safely provides the maximum therapeutic benefit to patients. The book walks readers through the QbD framework by covering the fundamental principles of QbD, the current regulatory requirements, and the applications of QbD at various stages of pharmaceutical product development, including drug substance and excipient development, analytical development, formulation development, dissolution testing, manufacturing, stability studies, bioequivalence testing, risk and assessment, and clinical trials. Contributions from global leaders in QbD provide specific insight in its application in a diversity of pharmaceutical products, including nanopharmaceuticals, biopharmaceuticals, and vaccines. The inclusion of illustrations, practical examples, and case studies makes this book a useful reference guide to pharmaceutical scientists and researchers who are engaged in the formulation of various delivery systems and the analysis of pharmaceutical product development and drug manufacturing process. Discusses vital QbD precepts and fundamental aspects of QbD implementation in the pharma, biopharma and biotechnology industries Provides helpful illustrations, practical examples and research case studies to explain QbD concepts to readers Includes contributions from global leaders and experts from academia, industry and regulatory agencies

The first systematic, hands-on auditing guide for today'spharmaceutical laboratories In today's litigious environment, pharmaceutical laboratories aresubject to ever stricter operational guidelines as mandated by theFDA, and must be able to establish and demonstrate sustainableoperational practices that ensure compliance with the current goodmanufacturing practice (CGMP) regulations. David Bliesner'sEstablishing a CGMP Laboratory Audit System: A Practical Guide isdesigned to provide laboratory supervisors and personnel with astep-by-step, hands-on audit system that they can rely on to ensuretheir facility remains compliant with all current and futurerequirements. Focusing on a "team approach," the author usesdetailed flowcharts, checklists, and descriptions of the auditingprocess to help readers develop a new audit system or upgrade theircurrent system in order to: * Improve current compliance * Demonstrate sustainable compliance * Produce data for federal inspections * Avoid regulatory action Enhanced with detailed checklists and a wealth of practical andflexible auditing tools on CD-ROM, this book provides an idealresource for new and future laboratory personnel, and an excellentmeans for keeping existing industry practitioners up to date on thenuances of operating a consistently compliant pharmaceuticallaboratory.

Dietary Supplement GMP is a one-stop "how-to" road map to the final dietary supplement GMP regulations recently issued by the FDA covering the manufacture, packaging, and holding of dietary supplement products. The recent regulations, outlining broad goals, intentionally avoid specifics to allow for future technological advances—leaving implementation to the discretion of each firm. Given this latitude and flexibility, this new resource is an essential source of workable and practical suggestions on ways the industry can best meet the goals. Based on broad experience with GMP compliance techniques worked out over the years in the food, drug, and medical device industries, it is a must-have guide for all DS companies, especially the many smaller firms for whom this is new territory. Dietary Supplement GMP provides: a practical guide in easy to understand language to help navigate through the requirements for systems covering process and quality control suggestions and practical recommendations on "how-to" achieve full compliance explanation of the FDA’s role regarding inspection, enforcement, recall/seizure of products and prosecution Dietary Supplement Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) covers: Personnel Plants and Grounds Equipment and Utensils Sanitation of Buildings and Equipment Quality Assurance and Laboratory Operations The Quality Control Unit Production and Process Controls
