Advanced Topics in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing and Regulatory Submissions
Course Description
A continuation of Pharmaceutical Drug Development. Drug
substance and drug product stability, tablet coating, and
modified release oral dosage forms. Advanced drug delivery
systems (transdermal, nanomedicines, gene delivery, protein and
peptide delivery, 3D printing) in pharmaceutical and
biopharmaceutical drug development. U.S. FDA regulatory
submission and approval process for NDA and ANDA will also be
discussed.
Additional Requirements for Graduate Students: Graduate students will be administered different
examinations/assignments that will require them to demonstrate
greater critical thinking skills by applying concepts from the
course in the design and interpretation of experiments.
