Emerging Applications and Regulatory Strategies for Advanced Medicines Manufacturing - Towards the Development of a Platform Approach.

The last decade has seen Advanced Medicines Manufacturing (AMM) progress from isolated product developments to the creation of industry-academic centres of excellence, regulatory innovation progressing leading to new standards, and product commercialisation across multiple product formats. This paper examines these developments focusing on successful applications and strategies presented at the 2023 Symposium of the International Consortium for Advanced Medicines Manufacturing (ICAMM). Despite these exemplar applications, there remain significant challenges to the sector-wide adoption of AMM technologies.

Leveraging Integrated Continuous Manufacturing to Address Critical Issues in the U.S. Military.

There is a tremendous opportunity to modernize the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry-relinquishing outdated machines that have been used for decades, and replacing them with state-of-the-art equipment that reflect more contemporary advanced technologies. This article describes how the implementation of continuous manufacturing, replacing outdated batch systems, can positively impact our health care sector. Important benefits will include the creation of advanced pharmaceutical manufacturing jobs in the United States, the establishment of capabilities and capacity to quickly produce drugs critical to U.

An automated modular assembly line for drugs in a miniaturized plant.

We report here a fully automated, end-to-end, integrated continuous manufacturing process for a small-molecule generic medication with built-in quality assurance. The entire process fits into a box of 30.7 m2 modular footprint and a total residence time of less than 30 h, with a throughput up to 40.

Why We Need Continuous Pharmaceutical Manufacturing and How to Make It Happen.

We make the case for why continuous pharmaceutical manufacturing is essential, what the barriers are, and how to overcome them. To overcome them, government action is needed in terms of tax incentives or regulatory incentives that affect time.

Regulatory Perspectives on Continuous Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Moving From Theory to Practice: September 26-27, 2016, International Symposium on the Continuous Manufacturing of Pharmaceuticals.

Continuous manufacturing plays a key role in enabling the modernization of pharmaceutical manufacturing. The fate of this emerging technology will rely, in large part, on the regulatory implementation of this novel technology. This paper, which is based on the 2nd International Symposium on the Continuous Manufacturing of Pharmaceuticals, describes not only the advances that have taken place since the first International Symposium on Continuous Manufacturing of Pharmaceuticals in 2014, but the regulatory landscape that exists today.

End-to-end continuous manufacturing of pharmaceuticals: integrated synthesis, purification, and final dosage formation.

A series of tubes: The continuous manufacture of a finished drug product starting from chemical intermediates is reported. The continuous pilot-scale plant used a novel route that incorporated many advantages of continuous-flow processes to produce active pharmaceutical ingredients and the drug product in one integrated system.
