Early clinical trials are conducted to establish initial safety of a drug. The studies are generally in small number of healthy subjects and use lower doses of the drug product. Therefore, only small amounts of investigational material are required. In order to not undertake substantial costs and to reduce regulatory burden during these early stages, the FDA has established guidelines to allow early stage investigational products to be manufactured under less stringent GMPs.
To gain an understanding of the requirements for advancing drugs from research into early clinical development and the minimum FDA requirements for phase I GMPs. To learn practical applications for implementing phase I manufacturing strategies to meet FDA requirements.
The following topics will be discussed to provide the foundation and basis for advancing drugs into clinical development from research and providing required information to the FDA regarding these products.
The following topics will be discussed to provide the requirements for early stage products of different types and for vendor selection and management.
