New GMP Document In Response To COVID-19
Zener Engineering Services Ltd • 18 December 2020
World Health Organization
In response to the recent urgent need for the fast development of health products in the treatment of COVID-19, the World Health Organization (WHO) are in the process of developing a Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) document to address the manufacturing of developmental batches, pilot batches and the sequential stability data that is submitted in product applications (dossiers) for marketing authorization and the prequalification of medical products.
There are currently no regulatory guidelines which address this matter, although the data collected from these batches influences the following aspects of the product:
- Stability
- Process validation
- Analytical method development and validation
ZES clients in the Research and Development (R&D) sector will benefit from this document.
Once approved ZES will be able to help its clients achieve the required GMP standard to safeguard the R&D company and its patients.
