EU GMP Annex 1 Draft — Closed System Design Consideration with Single-Use Systems



WEBINAR

The European Commission published a draft revision of the European Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), Annex 1, on Manufacturing of Sterile Medicinal Products which will include specific guidance on the use and risk control of single-use systems. Here, it is emphasized that the use of closed systems such as single-use systems can reduce the risk of cross-contamination.

During this webinar, we will focus on points to consider assuring sterility and integrity of a single-use assembly, and how collaboration between supplier and end-user can support the overall contamination control strategy of final filtration and filling operation.

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • What are the EU GMP Annex 1 draft expectations on the use and control of single-use systems
  • Which measures to take assuring the integrity of a single-use system
  • How collaboration between supplier and end-user can support a risk-based contamination control strategy
