Shelf-Life Evaluation and Extrapolation
This webinar explains how to set a retest period for a drug substance or shelf life for the drug product. It also describes how extrapolation can be applied to propose a retest period or shelf life for a drug product that extends beyond the period covered by real-time stability data. It covers regulatory guidance, poolability of stability data and appropriate statistical models for shelf-life evaluation.
Topics covered include:
- Overview of ICH Q1E – Evaluation for Stability Data
- Shelf-life extrapolation
- Statistical background to ICH Q1E
- Evaluating poolability of stability data – analysis of covariance
- Examples – potency and impurity trends
