About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Producing a Pharmaceutical or Biopharmaceutical - The Manufacturing Process".

This medical PowerPoint presentation is about the manufacturing process for pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals which can be complex and may vary depending on the specific product and manufacturing facility.

Its important to note that the manufacturing process for biopharmaceuticals is generally more complex than that for traditional small-molecule pharmaceuticals, as they involve living cells and may require specialized equipment and facilities. Additionally, the regulatory requirements for the production of pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals are stringent and require compliance with various standards and guidelines to ensure patient safety.

Slide 1-

Producing a Pharmaceutical or Biopharmaceutical The Manufacturing Process
Slide 2-

Process development Scientists and engineers begin to figure out how to “scale up” production of a drug even before it receives FDA approval. Manufacturing processes might be quite different than the small-scale lab procedures.
Slide 3-

Production Production of a pharmaceutical or biopharmaceutical involves many different, complex and lengthy steps: Synthesis (chemical or cell culture) Purification Formulation Final dosage form preparation
Slide 4-

Step 1: Synthesis Order the raw materials needed to make the product. Test all raw materials to be sure they meet quality standards. For biomanufacturing, equipment and materials need to be sterilized to avoid bacterial and other contamination to the cell cultures.
Slide 5-

Step 1: Synthesis The product then is created. For pharmaceuticals, there are chemical processes involved (chemical synthesis). For biopharmaceuticals, cell culture or fermentation is involved. The product is referred to as the “active ingredient.”
Slide 6-

Step 1: Synthesis For the biopharmaceutical, the original cell culture is started in small bottles (around the size of large soda bottles) As the cells grow and multiply, they are introduced into a small bioreactor. Eventually they are grown in large bioreactors, which can be several stories tall!

Step 2: Purification After the active ingredient is synthesized, it must be purified. Purification involves removing the chemicals used in the process. For biopharmaceuticals, purification involves separating the cells from the cellular nutrients and byproducts (the “soup”) they grew in.
Slide 9-

Step 2: Purification The end result of production is called the bulk product. The bulk product may be sold as is, processed further at the same plant or shipped to another plant for further processing.
Slide 10-

Step 3: Formulation Several other operations are required to get bulk product into its final form. Formulation involves chemical mixing operations to blend the active ingredient with other substances, such as fillers, needed in the final form.
Slide 11-

Step 3: Formulation The final form may be a solid (tablet or capsule), liquid, gels/creams or aerosols. Biopharmaceuticals usually are sold as sterile liquids or sterile powders.
Slide 12-

Step 4: Final dosage form preparation The formulated preparation is made into its final form. The final form is dispensed into containers. The containers are labeled and packaged.
Slide 13-

Quality matters The standards of quality are high because the stakes are high. Poor quality products can harm or even kill consumers. Companies must conform to the stringent Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations established by the FDA.
Slide 14-

Ensuring quality Manufacturers have three departments that ensure quality: Quality control (QC) Quality assurance (QA) Validation
Slide 15-

Quality control QC employees sample and test the raw materials and the product during many stages of the manufacturing process.
Slide 16-

Quality assurance QA ensures product quality by setting up and checking the systems of standard operating procedures (SOPs) and of documentation. SOPs guide every task by defining each procedure in detail so it can be performed exactly the same way every time.
Slide 17-

Quality assurance Companies are required to prepare and follow SOPs by the FDA. Any deviation from the SOP must be documented and approved by the QA department. Critical deviations that could affect product quality are investigated further.
Slide 18-

Quality assurance Documentation proves that a company has done what it said. A company is required to have a traceable, written record of all processes and checks. “If it isn’t written down, it doesn’t exist. If it isn’t written down, it never happened.”
Slide 19-

Validation Validation proves that a manufacturing process will consistently produce the product to predefined specifications. The operation of every part of the plant that affects quality must be validated.
Slide 20-

Validation If a manufacturing process is changed or if a new product is introduced, all processes and equipment that affect quality must be validated. Validation scientists and engineers have extensive experience because they must be very familiar with the regulations.
Slide 21-

Five Rules for Quality 1. Understand customer needs Companies have internal customers (fellow employees) as well as external customers. For a process technician, your internal customer is your coworker at the next stage of the process.
Slide 22-

Five Rules for Quality 2. Say what you do (write down procedures) Standard procedures and forms are required for every step. Batch records define the steps required to manufacture the product, the materials used, etc.
Slide 23-

Five Rules for Quality 3. Do what you say (follow procedures) Manufacturers are required to consistently and exactly follow procedures. SOPs are vital, and there are SOPs for every step.
Slide 24-

Five Rules for Quality 4. Prove it (keep records) Companies must have traceable, written records of all processes. Remember: “If it isn’t written down, it doesn’t exist. If it isn’t written down, it never happened.”
Slide 25-

Five Rules for Quality 5. Improve it Companies must continually evaluate its processes and procedures. They should take steps to make the product and process better. Of course, new procedures must be validated!
Slide 26-

Standard Operating Procedures SOPs define a particular process in detail so it can be performed the same way, every time. Lengthy regulations related to manufacturing are found in the Code of Federal Regulations. Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulates methods, equipment, facilities and controls.
