Objectives: Pharmaceutical development is a relevant phase in the entire path to new drug products. It can be considered as the technical, scientific and regulatory support of the products to market, as it shows the whole path of “drug product design” from the beginning. The new approaches like Quality by Design (QbD) still coexist with a trial-and-error process, but emerging tools such as process analytical technologies (PAT), or even Artificial Intelligence (AI) are posing quite interesting but also complex issues. Thus, it is important to address strategies for the development of complex drug products and complex manufacturing processes. With this in mind, the main objective of this course is to make students aware of the underlined issues in pharmaceutical development through examples of current projects dealing with new approaches of building a pharmaceutical product. The Course is divided into ten lectures covering different topics in the field, given by lecturers from the Faculty of Pharmacy of Coimbra, and concludes with a plenary lecture by Prof. Richard Guy on Regulatory science and drug product development.
Registrations are open until 30th March 2022, 5 pm.
