Program Highlights
Using single-use systems in GMP regulated biomanufacturing – a practical approach
This course will take place at the Sartorius Stedim facilities in Göttingen.
In the biomanufacturing world, a huge product diversification occurs place with new therapeutic approaches rising. Novartis e.g., recently released a new gene therapy drug for two Million Euros per dose, while other companies are still in the development phase for drugs targeting the same disease. Wouldn’t it be great for them to have released these drugs faster to be the first one and to make two Million Euros per dose themselves? And what technologies might have helped to reach this goal?
One possibility to get drugs faster to the market is the use of single-use systems. But are they robust enough when the product contact layer is made from polymers? And what will the authorities say? If the equation SUS plus GMP results in SOS, then you should sign up for this two-day course. Here you will learn and discuss with technical trainers and specialists for data handling and GMP regulations how to implement and operate single-use technologies in a GMP-controlled environment.
During an optional third day, you can look into the manufacturing of single-use bioreactor bags and filters, followed by a visit to the Sartorius Application Center where you can see and test complete process solutions from molecule discovery to large-scale biomanufacturing.
Upon completion of the training course, the participants:
- have understood the regulations and relevant guidelines for single-use system (SUS) handling
- can explain basics in single-use processing, bag functionalities, connection-disconnection technologies
- can operate bags, tubings, filters, and sensors
- have understood Data Integrity and Data Analysis / Monitoring for SUS handling
- have understood possible setups for filter and container closure integrity testing in single-use assemblies
