Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC or Quality) is one of the three key areas (with Safety and Efficacy) that health authorities consider for the review and approval of drug applications. Effective CMC strategies and execution may reduce regulatory burden, enable shorter review timelines and support post-approval maintenance. This two-day workshop conveys key CMC concepts, challenges and opportunities encountered by those working in regulatory strategy, as well as those in functional areas who partner with regulatory to achieve business goals.
In addition to demonstrating technical proficiency related to CMC, regulatory professionals must cultivate partnerships with internal and external functional areas in order to achieve their strategic and tactical goals. These partnering functional areas, including business development, operations, product development and product lifecycle management, play an integral role in product development. The ability to understand how these functional areas’ activities interact with, and support, CMC can have a considerable impact on an organization’s ability to successfully launch a new drug.
