In collaboration with the Pharmaceutical Regulatory Science Team (PRST), a research team based at the Technological University Dublin (TU Dublin) in Ireland, a research study exploring the need for developing quality risk management (QRM) role-based competencies as fundamental elements to realizing QRM's benefits was conducted. The research study followed a hybrid Delphi research methodology of which elements are presented in the paper titled "Quality Risk Management Competency Model-Case for the need for QRM Competencies." This paper presents the second part of the Delphi research methodology, focusing on the results of a detailed technical and behavioral competencies questionnaire and a proposed QRM role-based competency model.

In this study, a sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of seven angiotensin II receptor blockers, namely, hydrochlorothiazide, chlorthalidone, eprosartan mesylate, valsartan, losartan potassium, irbesartan, and candesartan cilexetil. Different chromatographic parameters were tested and fully optimized. Best chromatographic separation was accomplished on a reversed-phase octadecylsilyl column (250 × 4.

The Pharmaceutical Regulatory Science Team (PRST), a research team based at the Dublin Technological University (TU Dublin) in Ireland, recently conducted a Quality Risk Management (QRM) survey and a face-to-face focus group workshop to assess the level of formality of QRM roles in the biopharmaceutical sector. This was carried out as part of a research study, which identified the need for the development of QRM role-based competencies as fundamental to realizing QRM's benefits. The research study followed a hybrid Delphi research methodology composed of: (1) Survey 1, (2) focus group workshop, (3) Survey 2, and (4) competency model development.

Robustness of RP-HPLC methods is a crucial method quality attribute which has gained an increasing interest throughout the efforts to apply quality by design concepts in analytical methodology. Improvement to design space modeling approaches to represent method robustness was the goal of many previous works. Modeling of design spaces regarding to method robustness fulfils quality by design essence of ensuring method validity throughout the design space.

Neuroendocrine tumors comprise a large group of malignancies which share unique morphological features and are characterized by the presence of neuroendocrine markers such as synaptophysin, chromogranin-A, and CD56 (N-CAM), ranging from indolent tumors, such as carcinoid tumors, to aggressive tumors, such as small cell carcinoma. The lung is the most common site for primary neuroendocrine tumors. Extrapulmonary primary sites of small cell carcinoma are rare but have been documented arising from various sites including esophagus, stomach, colon and rectum, gallbladder, thymus, salivary gland, ovary, cervix, bladder, prostate, and skin.
