Stability Studies in the development and production of drugs – Module 1

Training overview

Module 1: regulatory aspects and minimal requirements for a stability study

The training course “Stability Studies in Pharmaceutical Development and Manufacturing” aims to illustrate the criteria according to which to plan stability studies for API and/or finished product throughout the drug lifecycle, from the initial stage of development, through to commercialization. The main points related to stability studies will be covered: when they are required and for what purposes, what is required by regulations, what is the structure of a study that meets the minimum requirements in relation to the climatic zones of application, and how to interpret the data obtained.

Module 2: 27 October 2023 – ICH and EMA guidelines supporting stability studies

If you participate in both modules the price is 850 €!
