FDA draft guidance on individualized genome editing lets BLAs add patient-specific variants without new trials, shifting evidence to CMC assay data.

Vibha Jawa, PhD, chief scientific officer at EpiVax, explains why the need for animal studies varies by modality and what it takes for organ-on-chip and other human-relevant models to replace these studies in IND-enabling toxicology work.

The pharmaceutical supply chain is a complex system with high stakes. USP provides insights on how it is helping industry navigate global disruptions and procurement issues.

Impurity deficiencies in submissions are remarkably consistent. Subathra Ramamoorthy, Veranova, explains how to catch them before agency filing.

Mitigating nitrosamine risk requires assessing each product individually and chasing zero nitrite in pharmaceutical excipients is often impractical and costly.

In October, FDA reorganized rare disease development around a fit-for-purpose framework and a new pathway for individualized gene editing. Regulators in Europe and the UK set out long-term plans for clinical trials, AI, and moving away from animal testing.

Continuous overall equipment effectiveness can be used to pinpoint hidden downtime and process bottlenecks in real time.

Subathra Ramamoorthy, Veranova, on how forced degradation and trace impurity profiling in potent APIs shape regulator-ready analytical methods.
