Implementing ICH Q8 - Quality by Design

Conducted by Gamal Amer, Ph.D.
Principal - Premier Compliance Services, Inc.

May 21, 2009

This web seminar will focus on defining what Quality by Design means based on a review of the FDA’s initiative on QbD and on a review of ICH Q8 guidance to industry. The presentation will then proceed to define requirements for implementing QbD in product and process design. We will then outline a step-by-step systematic approach to implementing QbD in any development project. We will review the concepts of User Requirements, Ishikawa Fishbone Diagrams, FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) principles for performing root cause analysis, the use of Experimental Design to define critical factors, conducting reviews, and the principles of knowledge, design, and control space and how to define them.

Specific topics to be covered include:

• Review of the ICH Q8 (R1) and ASTM E2500 to understand the QbD concepts from a compliance viewpoint
• Define the QbD systematic approach
• Discussion of the needs for User Requirement Specifications (URS)
• How to effectively use an Ishikawa Fishbone Diagram
• Using Root Cause Analysis techniques to identify risk factors
• Principles of Design of Experiments (DOE)
• How to use Knowledge space (Science base), Design space (DS), Normal Operating space (Range), Control space (Range), and Design Reviews to support QbD implementation
• A step-by-step QbD implementation roadmap
• Questions and answers with Dr. Gamal Amer

This seminar will be conducted on the telephone and is presented by Gamal Amer, Ph.D., an industry expert on this and other compliance related topics.

In this unique web seminar format, lasting just one hour, you will be able to follow along with a PowerPoint presentation, ask questions, and interact with Dr. Amer. Dr. Amer's qualifications can be found below.
