FDASIA is legislation signed into law on July 9, 2012 that amends several drug and device provisions of the FD&C Act. By specifically addressing Drug Supply Chain, it enhances FDA’s authority over a manufacturer’s supply chain while strengthening FDA’sadulteration laws. In addition, FDASIA increases FDA’s authority over registered and unregistered foreign firms. Most significantly, this new legislation increases FDA’s inspection authority and reaffirms 211.100 and 211.110 regulations.

Why You Should Attend

FDA’s newly published Quality Agreements Guideline, while not codified law, delineates FDA’s expectation that firms treat their suppliers as an extension of their own operations. Understanding FDA’s thinking with respect to supplier management is essential sustainable compliance and a successfulpre-approval inspection.

Last but not least is FDA’s new guidance to investigators related to process validation, which can be found in Compliance Program Guide Sec. 490.100. FDA’s expectation is that Process Validation be accomplished by employing a Product Life-cycle Management Program, which should address both new, and legacy products.

Attendees will learn more about each of these new FDA directives and how they can use these initiatives as part of their company’s risk management. The industry must prepare for the trickle down effect of new legislation, enhanced inspection muscle and supply chain focus.
