Presentation Title: Enhance Spray Drying CPV using MVDA
Primary presenter: Tiago Porfirio

 

One approach to enhancing Continued process verification (CPV) is through the use of multivariate data analysis (MVDA), which allows for the identification of correlations and patterns between process parameters and product quality attributes. MVDA involves the analysis of multiple variables simultaneously, allowing for a comprehensive understanding of the process and its impact on product quality. By analyzing data from multiple sources, including automated control systems and quality control testing, MVDA can help identify the critical process parameters (CPPs) and critical quality attributes (CQAs) that are most strongly correlated with product quality. This approach can significantly improve process efficiency and product quality while reducing the risk of product failure, reprocessing and rework. Moreover, MVDA provide insights into potential causes for process deviations, facilitating the development of corrective actions. This proactive approach to CPV helps to ensure that the process remains within established control limits, minimizing the risk of non-compliance. This work will show how the integration of MVDA into CPV in a spray drying process can significantly enhance process control and product quality by leveraging multivariate data analysis.

Formulating Inhaled Medicines

Sep 24, 2024

Lisbon, Portugal – Hovione, the specialist integrated pharma CDMO and leader in spray drying and particle engineering, today announced its commitment to setting Science-Based Targets (SBTs) in line with the Paris Agreement. This ambitious step underscores the company’s dedication to addressing climate change and driving sustainability across its operations. By committing to SBTs, Hovione joins a growing number of businesses taking concrete actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This initiative aligns with the company’s broader sustainability strategy and reinforces its commitment to scientific excellence. “At Hovione, we believe in science and in best practices. And this clearly applies to our sustainability agenda.”, said Jean-Luc Herbeaux, CEO of Hovione. We made the decision to drive our GHG emissions down using a science-based target setting process, which will help us drive sustainability across our operations by laying out a clearly defined path to reduce emissions in line with the Paris Agreement goals. We believe that by setting ambitious targets and implementing concrete actions, we can make a positive impact on the planet while driving innovation and growth.” Hovione will work closely with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to develop and validate its emission reduction targets. The company will provide regular updates on its progress towards achieving these goals. As part of its commitment to sustainability and transparency to stakeholders, the company will enhance its Ecovadis rating. Ecovadis, a leading sustainability assessment platform in the pharmaceutical industry, provides a comprehensive evaluation of a company’s environmental, social, and ethical performance, well aligned with Hovione’s sustainability ambitions.  Hovione remains dedicated to operating responsibly and contributing positively to society and the environment. The company will continue to implement sustainable practices across its operations and innovate to further improve its sustainability rating.   Learn more about Science Based-Targets
