Registration Options
Individual Registration
Group Registration
When developing a drug intended for prefilled applications, the intended user requirements, manufacturing of goods and fill finish requirements must be taken into account to determine the component design and material selection during development. This training course will focus on providing a detailed understanding of the newest packaging technologies that support evolving drug and patient needs, considerations that must be taken into account, quality expectations to fulfill regulatory requirements, and how new manufacturing technologies are being applied.
The training course will follow a practical approach to assist the audience in understanding influences of all involved components and processes such as glass, polymer, elastomer, bulk, nested, silicon, filling and closing. The trainers will give a detailed insight of the complex interaction between components, containers and processes, and will follow with discussions on avoiding issues in development and overcoming hurdles faster.
Upon completion of this training course, the attendee will be able to:
- Recognize all steps involved in a functioning system of drugs, containers, devices and processes
- Distinguish and resolve potential issues in the interaction and integration of drugs, processes, containers and delivery devices
- Identify all steps involved in the development of a primary packaging container and fill-finish technology
- Describe the processes and influences in minimizing risk and expediting drug launch and market entry
- Demonstrate the system to customers, partners and colleagues to identify potential challenges
