Dr. Mattia Cassanelli | Technical Manager – Consultancy Biopharma Group, UK

13:40 - 14:10 Taking into account Kv distribution in freeze drying simulation. Theory of freeze drying was set up in the 80’s by pioneering work of Pikal. Although very simple (1D, quasi steady state), the model provides very good representation of the reality, the only limitation is that it uses average value. However it is well known that the edge vials are much hotter than center vials, due to radiation impact. This difference in temperature may result in heterogeneities in the product : if the cycle is too aggressive, edge vials may collapse, or if it the primary drying is too short some residual ice may still be present when the cycle is moving to secondary drying, leading to melt back. We will present a new process simulation methodology, based on the distribution of Kv’s which allows top predict the variability of product temperature and primary drying time. Real life examples will be discussed. Jean-René Authelin | Global Head of Pharmaceutical Engineering Sanofi-Aventis, FR

Prof. Geoff SmithProfessor of Pharmaceutical Process Analytical TechnologyDe Montfort University, UK

Geoff Smith is Professor of Pharmaceutical Process Analytical Technology in the Leicester School of Pharmacy at De Montfort University (UK). His research group focusses on pharmaceutical applications for impedance, dielectric and terahertz spectroscopies alongside optical techniques such as laser speckle and optical flow. He is responsible for the development of through-vial impedance spectroscopy (TVIS) as a PAT tool for monitoring phase behaviour (ice formation and eutectics), ice interface temperatures, primary drying rates and end points. This development marks the first time that impedance spectroscopy has been used to characterize materials within conventional glass freeze-drying vials, without having to insert the electrodes into the product (i.e. the solution under-going freeze-drying). This feature of the technology sets it apart from other in-process impedance measurement systems, in which a bulky electrode assembly is inserted into the solution being freeze-dried, to provide a product-non-invasive technology.
