Genotoxic Impurities Summit: Nitrosamines & Beyond 2021

Genotoxic Impurities Summit Nitrosamines Beyond
Event Details

CONFERENCE OVERVIEW

The presence of nitrosamines and other mutagenic impurities might adversely impact the safety, quality and efficacy of drug substances and drug products. The estimation of the impurity profiles and their control and monitoring became an inevitable part of the successful development and production of new drugs. To comply with increased regulatory requirements and avoid expensive recalls, the proactive identification of genotoxic impurities should be established at every stage of drug development.

Together with industry experts we put an online meeting to present and explore varied opinions on how to tackle the challenges of mutagenic impurities. We will review drug impurity profiling strategies in line with regulatory guidelines, practical insights for compliance with the recent updates in ICH M7 and Q3D, new nitrosamine regulations, determination and calculation of nitrosamine impurities, risk assessment of genotoxic impurities, analytical challenges and genotoxicity prediction, development of acceptance criteria, latest advances in the assessment of elemental impurities.

Save your seat for our solution-packed webinar to be equipped with best practices and novel approaches to control genotoxic and elemental impurities.

◆  The nitrosamine impurities crisis prompted regulators around the world to increase their scrutiny of drug manufacturing processes even further. In the future, this greater scrutiny may lead to the discovery of nitrosamine impurities in other medicines. For this reason, manufacturers need to understand which medicines are likely to form nitrosamines, how and at what levels nitrosamine impurities are forming, and how to control nitrosamines.

◆  In the following seminar we will explore how USP responded to the nitrosamine impurities crisis with a proposed general chapter on nitrosamine impurities that provides a risk assessment strategy, methods for detecting and measuring nitrosamine impurities, along with physical reference standards against which manufacturers can compare their test results. Additionally, USP have create a whole suite of resources and tools for stakeholders to effectively face the challenges of Nitrosamine Impurities.
