86 - Technology Transfer from Lab to Plant (S6E11)

From Concept to Medicine - A Comprehensive Drug Development Journey

Explore the pivotal process of technology transfer in the pharmaceutical industry. This episode covers, transferring a manufacturing process from the controlled environment of a development lab to the complexities of a commercial production plant. It's not just about scaling up; it's about ensuring that the quality and consistency achieved in the lab are maintained at a much larger scale.

Discover the core elements of successful technology transfer. Including, thorough training of personnel, comprehensive documentation, and a robust quality handover process. We'll examine the challenges that can arise during this transition. For example, differences in equipment, variations in raw materials, and the unexpected behavior of chemical reactions at larger scales. Real-world examples illustrate how these hurdles are overcome.
