PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER (MQA 104T)

Scope

This deal with technology transfer covers the activities associated with Drug Substance, Drug Product and analytical tests and methods, required following candidate drug selection to completion of technology transfer from R&D to the first receiving site and technology transfer related to post-marketing changes in manufacturing places.


Objectives

Upon completion of this course the student should be able to

To understand the new product development process

To understand the necessary information to transfer technology from R&D to actual manufacturing by sorting out various information obtained during R&D

To elucidate necessary information to transfer technology of existing products between various manufacturing places
