Pharmaceutical Process Development & Pilot Plants


Description:
Pharmaceutical pilot plants are a valuable resource for ensuring efficient process scale-up and tech transfer to commercial manufacturing, as well as providing key deliveries of API and Drug Product for clinical supply. This session will showcase a variety of strategies for pilot plant design, operation, and even outsourcing that enhance pharmaceutical process development. Case studies on implementation of Process Analytical Technologies (PAT) in a pilot plant environment are also especially encouraged.
