Biopharmaceuticals: CMC Aspects
Biopharmaceuticals: CMC Aspects Training Course
Overview
This new instructor led course is an advanced level course on Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) aspects of biopharmaceutical development. The purpose of this course is to provide an advanced understanding of the CMC considerations of biopharmaceuticals from development to commercialization. An emphasis will be placed on using Quality by Design principles to develop, manufacture and guide the product lifecycle. Lastly, we will examine biosimilars and regulatory factors that affect product development and the product lifecycle and drug costs.
