Biopharmaceuticals (i.e., biological medicines sourced from genetically-engineered living systems) for treatment of human diseases have become a significant percentage of the pharmaceutical industry. And not just the recombinant DNA-derived proteins and monoclonal antibodies (both from the innovators and biosimilars); but now, an increasing awareness of the importance of gene therapy and genetically engineered cellular medicinal products.
Biopharmaceutical QA/QC strategies will be examined incorporating science-based, risk-based and phase-appropriate considerations to address challenges from early clinical development through commercialization for recombinant proteins, monoclonal antibodies, genetically engineered viruses and human cells.
This course will provide insights and practical guidance for senior management in evaluating the effectiveness of their QA/QC strategy for biopharmaceuticals.
