On Tuesday March, 22nd FDA announced a public conference, entitled “Aligning Manufacturing Goals with Patient Needs through Successful Innovation and Compliance,” to be held in co-sponsorship with the Parenteral Drug Association (PDA).
FDA and PDA hold an annual Joint Regulatory Conference, which provides a unique opportunity for participants to engage with FDA representatives and industry experts in face-to-face dialogue. Each year, the conference focuses on the “current issues affecting the industry,” and explores different strategies to expedite the development and continuous improvement of safe and effective medical products.
The conference helps ensure the quality of FDA-regulated products by helping to achieve the objectives set forth in section 406 of the FDA Modernization Act of 1997. These objectives include working closely with stakeholders and maximizing the availability and clarity of information to stakeholders and the public.
During the conference participants will have the chance “to discuss the foundations, emerging technologies, and innovations in regulatory science, as well as the current quality and compliance areas of concerns.” Participants will hear from a number of speakers from the industry as well as representatives from the Agency who will delve into the “requirements and best practices to consider while implementing robust quality systems in order to deliver the best quality product.” The topics that will be discussed throughout a series of sessions and meetings include, but are not limited to:
