There is a growing trend in the pharmaceutical industry towards accelerated development of therapeutics to address unmet medical needs. The shorter timelines coupled with increasing complexity of the development candidates and/or delivery systems presents extraordinary challenges for managing the chemistry, manufacturing and controls activities. Key to regulatory and operational success is a risk based approach to management of manufacturing, product quality and supply chain.
