We will take a deep dive into the program, with a focus on:

  • Optimization of the synthetic process
  • Physicochemical characterization of the API molecule
  • Analytical controls and specifications development
  • Technology transfer to manufacture
  • Process performance qualification (i.e. process validation)
  • Establishing a phase and product-appropriate regulatory concept and dossier
