Element是世界公认的设计领导者, 开发和临床生产强大的外用药物产品,具有广泛的治疗适应症,包括小分子和多肽, proteins and oligonucleotides.

Element深厚的科学和监管专业知识, purpose-built laboratories, 设备完善的临床试验生产设施, 对质量和合规的根深蒂固的承诺支持了整个外用药物产品的开发和生产过程. 我们的高技能配方师团队在克服复杂局部配方开发特有的挑战和问题方面经验丰富. 成功开发具有最佳渗透的物理和化学稳定的局部配方需要对物理化学性质有深入的了解, including release characteristics, the composition of the drug-delivery system, and the nature of the drug delivery vehicle.

In addition to facilitating patient compliance, topical products offer a wide range of benefits, 包括易于递送和避免第一次代谢问题的能力. 当内部配制局部产品不切实际或成本过高时, Element拥有先进的仪器和熟练的团队,可以开发和制造各种剂型中最复杂的局部配方, including gels, creams, lotions, ointments, suppositories, emulsions, liquids and other semisolid forms.

Element的设计质量(QbD)方法用于局部产品开发

Element的局部产品开发实验室为各种监管途径提供全面的支持, including investigational new drugs (IND), new drug applications (NDA), and abbreviated new drug applications (ANDA), built upon Quality by Design (QbD) principles. FDA强烈鼓励使用QbD方法, 该机构现在在监管提交文件中寻找QbD成分. 使用QbD方法创建实验设计(DoE)确定制造产品的设计空间. 为工艺参数提供更广泛的设计空间,可以实现更稳健的制造,从而可能减少制造时间, increase product shelf life, or increase batch yields.

When a QbD approach is employed, 将用于开发最终产品的生产过程和制造仪器的理解带入分析研究和开发过程, resulting in a higher quality finished product. QbD formalizes product design, automates testing, and streamlines troubleshooting, 作为完全依赖成品测试的替代方案. 我们的监管和科学专家咨询团队不仅帮助客户理解和实施QbD, but also accelerate speed to market, helping companies launch valuable, safe, 和有效的外用产品,以最可靠和最具成本效益的方式.

QbD components include:

  • A quality target product profile (TPP)
  • Critical quality attributes (CQAs)
  • Critical process parameters (CPPs)
  • 药物和赋形剂的关键物质属性
  • A control strategy
  • 定义测试方法和制造过程的有效设计空间
