Continuous Manufacturing for Emergency Preparedness and Rapid Response: Accelerating Widespread Adoption|The onset of the COVID 19 pandemic has illustrated the importance of the FDA's desired state of a "maximally efficient, agile, flexible pharmaceutical manufacturing sector". Continuous manufacturing has the potential to rapidly respond to changes in demand due to local or global changes. Speakers in this session will discuss how government agencies, pharmacopeial organizations, and industry are working to advance continuous manufacturing and the potential of this technology to respond to the current situation and future challenges. This session will close with an extended panel discussion.

A New Decade for Continuous Manufacturing
A New Decade for Continuous Manufacturing Continuous manufacturing for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical manufacturing is still in its infancy with only a limited number of products approved within the past 5 years. As we begin the third decade of the third millennium, we anticipate that bio/pharmaceutical manufacturing will continue to get smaller, faster, and smarter. In this opening conference session, a broad array of speakers from industry, academia, and regulatory agencies will provide their views on the state of continuous bio/pharmaceutical manufacturing today and predictions for its future.

Advances in Continuous Manufacturing for Small Molecule
Advances in Continuous Manufacturing for Small Molecule While continuous processes started with a few continuous steps, the maximal value of continuous manufacturing will be gained from increased integration. Several recent processes demonstrate this value. This session will focus on actual industrial processes, emphasizing the technical and business advantages of integration. Advances in the integration of unit operations, independently for API and drug product as well as the end-to-end integration of the two will be discussed over the course of the session.

Expert Roundtable
Expert Roundtable: How do we realize the full potential for Small Molecule in the new decade? Panel discussion with experts in the area of small molecule continuous manufacturing will discuss the technical, regulatory, and business hurdles for continuous manufacturing. This session will highlight CM as a continuum from E2E to hybrid approaches, including the need for "batch steps" for some products, requirement differences which can be a hindrance to global implementation of advanced technologies enabled by CM such as PAT, RTRT, and modeling; and why E2E CM may or may not be the optimal solution.
