Regulatory Science Challenges for Complex Generics

1:15 p.m. - 2:30 p.m.

This panel will explore complex generic drug products FDA has approved and the regulatory science that can support further approvals related to comparative use human factors studies (CUHFS), long-acting injectables, complex API characterization, and other areas. This session also will provide updates from the Center for Research on Complex Generics (CRCG). Other topics for discussion in this area include oligonucleotides, combination products, guidance on in-vitro and PK BE studies as alternatives for pharmacodynamic and clinical endpoint BE studies, and topical and inhalation products.
