The PDA/FDA Adventitious Viruses in Biologics: Detection and Mitigation Strategies Workshop is being organized currently as a result of recent viral contamination events. This workshop is intended to encourage modernization in industry with respect to viral detection and control measures. Gaps in our current ability to detect, control and clear adventitious viruses; the availability of emerging technologies in areas where gaps exist; and CGMP expectations for adventitious virus detection and control, as well as consequences for noncompliance will be discussed.
This workshop will be held on December 1-3 in Bethesda, Maryland and will discuss current and updated manufacturing practices and processes designed to prevent adventitious viruses in biologics. It will also highlight the U.S. FDA’s regulatory expectations for product quality and purity with respect to adventitious agents.
