Reference Standard Management for Pharmaceutical Development

Life Sciences, Pharmaceutical Regulation, Pharmaceutical, Drug Discovery & Development,
  • Tuesday, January 09, 2024

Discover an informative webinar focused on maintaining regulatory compliance with a high-quality reference standard program for pharmaceutical development. Reference standards are a cornerstone of the pharmaceutical industry, critical to assessing product quality, safety and potency during development. Throughout the drug development process, properly characterized reference standards are required to ensure quality control in critical areas such as the release of new product batches and stability evaluation. This webinar is designed for industry professionals looking to gain a practical understanding of reference standards, from their acquisition and qualification to their application in maintaining product quality and regulatory compliance.

A typical drug product may require a reference standard for not only the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) but also for any number of degradation products, process impurities, metabolites or resolution components. For new drugs where compendial standards are unavailable, it is the responsibility of the sponsor to synthesize and characterize these materials. The featured speakers will delve into the analytical testing necessary for the qualification of these different standard types, with a focus on industry guidelines such as The Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) current good manufacturing practices (cGMP) and the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH).

Reference standards are required for a wide range of development activities that impact clinical research, including manufacturing, stability testing and toxicology. With an increased reliance on both domestic and international contract laboratories to perform critical research functions, storage and distribution of standards to collaborating organizations have become more critical than ever. Failure to properly characterize reference standards and maintain them in a qualified state can lead to significant delays in project timelines and increased costs.
