Workshop:
CONTINUOUS MANUFACTURING IN PHARMA: A forward looking approach for the production of oral solid dosage forms. 1 – 3 March 2016
NEW
WHY PARTICIPATE ?
Since more than 10 years an intensive discussion about the broad introduction of continuous manufacturing into the pharma industry has been going on. Originally raised by the regulatory authorities many pharmaceutical manufacturers now increase their focus on utilizing continuous tech-nologies in OSD (oral solid dosing), very well known and practiced in related industries such as the chemical and nutritional for many years.
Practical benefits are witnessed e.g. in(i) speeding up development processes by the possibility to scale-up only in one size of equipment, (ii) more efficient production processes by increasing equipment efficiency with lower consumption of ressources, (iii) increased product and process quality making use of up-to-date solutions for process automation in combination with appropriate PAT
With this newly designed workshop we introduce this topic to our at-tendees, combining high level expertise from the academic field, from industry and also from Glatt’s own knowledge base.
We offer an overview of technological and regulatory basics and trends, show practical experiences and introduce to late stage PAT-methods.
Besides lectures we also use hands-on demonstrations in the lab.
WHO MAY ATTEND?
We kindly invite all interested employees from pharmaceutical and related industries and academic institutions, who are interested in gaining know-how and also practical insight into continuous OSD manufacturing.
Typically, staff from quality, operating and research will get most out of the workshop.
