Program Highlights
The 2018 PDA Sterile Medicinal Products Manufacturing Conference will bring together sterile product experts and the sterile products community to highlight contemporary approaches for sterile product manufacturing and aseptic processing.

Overview

Regulatory expectations, including the use of more effective risk-based decision making, have changed due to the expansion of global manufacturing, the need to produce new therapies and products, and the use of new technologies. As a result, aseptic processing and terminal sterilization practices have been revisited, and the need for more reliable, efficient, and effective product manufacturing, control, and release processes has emerged. The proposed revision to EU Annex 1: Manufacture of Sterile Medicinal Products aims to address these trends.

Over the past decade, Aseptic Processing has increasingly become a prominent method for manufacturing sterile pharmaceutical products. It is the preferred, and in many cases, the only method available for manufacturing many of the new biologic therapies, even as it continues to be the method used for many long-standing more traditional drug products. In addition, there has been renewed interest in the use of terminal sterilization and post-aseptic processing microbiological treatments/sterilization to ensure product quality and sterility.

Health authorities from around the world are tightening expectations for sterile product quality and safety, based on patient risk. Producers of sterile products are contemplating true risk-based approaches to improve manufacturing and manufacturing controls to better meet challenges and comply with regulatory requirements. The need for dialogue and partnership between manufacturers, suppliers, and regulators is growing as a means to solve issues and improve.

The 2018 PDA Sterile Medicinal Products Manufacturing Conference will bring together sterile product experts and the sterile products community to highlight contemporary approaches for sterile product manufacturing. This will be done using case studies and personal experiences from recognized industry and regulatory agency experts. The Conference will cover modern approaches to aseptic product manufacturing and will focus on the following sterile product manufacturing essentials, with special reference to the draft revision of the EU GMP Annex 1:

  • Risk- and science-based assessment and approaches in sterile product facility design and manufacturing processes – what works and what may not be worth the risk
  • Modern methods for cleanroom qualification, environmental monitoring, and contamination control
  • How to better use existing sterile product technologies
  • PDA and industry responses to the proposed revision to Annex 1 and other regulatory trends and expectations
  • New thinking on sterile product manufacturing validation and process simulation

Learning Objectives

At the completion of this Conference, the participant will be prepared to better understand and meet the challenges of manufacturing healthcare sterile products in a modern global technological and regulatory environment by:

  • Explaining the latest methods for sterile product manufacturing risk evaluation
  • Describing the benefits associated with post-aseptic processing microbiological treatments/sterilization
  • Interpreting regulatory risk perspectives and implications for sterile product manufacturing and processing
  • Identifying contemporary aseptic processing technologies for risk minimization
  • Recognizing the new requirements present in the draft revised Annex 1

    P1: Opening Plenary: The State of Sterile Product Manufacturing: Challenges and Opportunities for Improvement 
    Moderator: Gabriele Gori,     Vice President, Audit and Risk Management, Global Quality, GSK Vaccines

    Session Description: The conference takes the opportunity of the on-going changes in the European regulations for sterile medicinal product manufacturing to discuss how to move forward to true risk-based manufacturing and control, in order to enhance process robustness and sterility assurance, thus ensuring supply reliability. The necessity for moving forward is illustrated by changes of the scenario where we operate, such as the availability of modern technologies, the development of innovative personalized and alternative therapies, the globalization of the manufacturing and supply chain as well as by increased regulatory expectations. What needs to change is our understanding of the limitations of traditional methods for process and contamination control, our hesitancy to use new technologies, and our awareness of the need to develop manufacturing methods to meet new therapies. This session will present a general overview on positions from industry and health authority on the above topics and will solicit an active dialogue with the participants that will continue through the subsequent conference tracks.

    8:30 a.m. – 8:55 a.m.

    P2: Quality Systems: What Works, What can be Improved, What Should Change?
    Moderator: Andrew Hopkins,     Expert GDMP Inspector, Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency

    Session Description: Whilst there is common agreement that the implementation of Quality Risk Management (QRM) principles is critical for an efficient and effective design and implementation of facilities and processes in a modern pharmaceutical company, there are instances where the implementation of these principles does not always translate into proper practices in the actual manufacturing and control activities that reduce residual risk to patient to an acceptable level. The purpose of this session is to provide clarity on those principles and provide a real case study on their effective implementation, for a better understanding on such a powerful approach and the associated benefits.

    P4: Science- and Risk-Based Decision-Making to Drive Best Practice in Sterile Product Manufacturing
    Moderator:     Hal Baseman, Chief Operations Officer, ValSource LLC

    Session Description: Once sterility has been achieved for a process or product, maintenance of integrity is paramount in the manufacture of sterile products. With aseptic processing, sterile integrity of the aseptic line and process must be maintained after sterilization-in-place until the manufacturing campaign is completed. For sterile pharmaceutical products, sterile integrity must be maintained throughout the product’s shelf-life. This session will highlight the risk-based considerations around sterile filtration including pre-use post-sterilization integrity testing. Additionally, recommended best demonstrated scientific practice for container closure integrity testing will be summarized based on current content of the ongoing revision of PDA Technical Report No. 27 on Pharmaceutical Packaging.

    P6: Concepts and Misconcepts for Terminal Sterilization with Moist Heat and Rendering Isolators Sterile
    Moderator:     Geert Vandenbossche, PhD, Global Head NTO Quality Strategic Initiatives, Novartis

    Session Description: Terminal sterilization of non-porous loads has different requirements and critical process parameters than porous loads. The presentation will highlight the key differences and bring clarity to points that are not addressed in the Annex-1 draft. The pharmaceutical industry has been moving away from conventional Grade A filling lines with B background to Isolator technology in grade D background. As a result, there is a need for line setup and format changes to take place with an open isolator in a grade D environment. A key question today is how to render all critical surfaces sterile, taking into account the following; a. limitation for VHP and other surface decontamination techniques to contact any hidden surfaces and b. the challenges faced to enter large format parts e.g. vibratory bowls and rails. The goal is to design a process that results in the highest possible sterility assurance level.

    P7: Aseptic Processing: Where Can We Go From Here?
    Moderator:    Gabriele Gori, Vice President, Audit and Risk Management, Global Quality, GSK Vaccines

    Session Description: Increased knowledge on aseptic manufacturing and improved process design can open the door to enhanced control strategies which are more efficient and effective than the ones implemented today. The introduction of new therapies are changing risk profiles, typical contributors of contamination, and forcing the industry to look for innovative approaches for process control and product release. This session will explore real time release for aseptic processing and other regulatory and process challenges raised by new products, such as those from cell and gene therapy.
