Integrated Continuous Processing Systems

Continuous manufacturing has been a rising paradigm in the pharmaceutical industry over the past decade. This session complements its other sister continuous sessions by focusing on new trends and research being conducted by pharmaceutical industries and academic institutions to monitor and optimize continuous processing. Focus of this session ranges around various unit operations from drug substance and drug product applications. Abstracts that involve research around technologies useful for real time processing, utilization of Process Analytical Technologies (PATs), optimization through data rich experimentation or modeling leading to data-driven processes, are sought for as potential fits for this session. These sessions focus on the advancements, challenges, and successes of continuous processing in drug substance and drug product. We invite submissions related to the optimization, scale up, online monitoring tools and strategies, characterization and simulation for critical elements (e.g. RTD, lot genealogy, temperature mapping, mixing effects, etc.), and control methodologies of continuous processes.
