... with our 2017 Events in Europe “Change is the only constant”. This wisdom by Heraclitus well describes the many changes in today’s politics and society. PDA has been changing throughout the past 60 years since its inception in 1946. A milestone in this development was the establishment of PDA Europe in 2006. PDA stands for “Connecting People, Science and Regulation”. To meet that need, PDA Europe has developed new and engaging conference formats like “PDA Interactive” and the “PDA Challenge Summit” (p. 6-7), which have been designed to expand your network and exchange knowledge with other attendees. The new “PDA Europe Exchange Series” 2017 (p.13; 24-27) integrates Conferences, Trainings and various Interest Group Meetings under one roof, offering its participants the opportunity to engage in different scenarios while attending one single event to “Meet, Exchange and Connect”, not only with colleagues and peers, but with professionals from different backgrounds around the globe. At the 14th Universe of Pre-Filled Syringes, we look forward to introducing you to a new show concept in the exhibition area. The 2017 Education Program presents various training courses with revised content, together with completely new ones. For example, PDA Europe holds a new course on auditing, which combines communication skills with GMP knowledge and will be delivered by both a psychologist and a GMP expert (page 34). In 2016, we were able to welcome more than 3.200 participants from 47 countries to our conferences, workshops and training courses. All events in 2017 will once more provide you with a variety of opportunities to exchange and network with representatives of international authorities and organizations, industry experts, suppliers as well as universities and research institutions. This year, our events will focus on presenting new perspectives on innovative technologies, updates on regulatory changes and give you practice-oriented expert advice. The team at PDA Europe is looking forward to welcoming you to our events in 2017!

Virus & TSE Safety Forum Updating you on Regulatory Expectations and Scientific Investigations on Virus and TSE Safety of Biotechnology, Plasma-derived and Cell-derived Medicinal Products. 16

30 May â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 1 June 2017 Dubrovnik | Croatia

WELCOME TO DUBROVNIK The first PDA Europe Virus & TSE Safety Forum was established in 2001 and since then, it has been held annually, alternating between Europe and the U.S. These truly global meetings are organized under the leadership of PDA in close cooperation with European regulatory agencies and the U.S. FDA. The Forum provides an overview and updates on regulatory expectations and scientific investigations related to virus and TSE safety of biotechnology, plasma-derived and cell-derived medicinal products. One recurring topic to be set for discussion in the upcoming edition will be virus contamination of raw materials, as well as emerging viral threats. A further topic of this year’s edition will be appropriate risk mitigation strategies consisting of two elements: a) Testing and processing of raw materials and b) Virus removal/inactivation capacity of the processes used for production of medicinal products. The last day of the conference will focus on TSE and how much vCJD or BSE currently pose a threat to the safety of medicinal products. This year´s Forum, held at Dubrovnik from 30 May till 1 June, provides a unique opportunity for interactive discussion and benchmarking to all professionals working in the field. Exchange of information between industry and regulators will improve the understanding and acceptance of new techniques, highlight new and emerging risks and explain new regulatory approaches.

Particles in Injectables

Taking place concurrently to the 10th Monoclonal Antibodies Workshop

BUY ONE TICKET, ACCESS BOTH EVENTS!

26-27 September 2017 Berlin | Germany

WELCOME TO BERLIN This year marks the 2nd edition of the conference on Particles in Injectables in Berlin from 26-27 September and the 10th Anniversary of PDA Europe's Monoclonal Antibodies Workshop. Please turn next page for a detailed overview of this workshop. Both events and its respective Education Program will join forces as part of the PDA Europe Exchange Series 09/17. This new conference format gives you the chance to "Meet, Exchange and Connect" with colleagues, peers and professionals from different backgrounds around the globe and participate in both conferences with just one meeting ticket. The Particles in Injectables conference provides you with a summary of information on the risks to human health associated with particulate matter. Particles can arise from many sources: foreign, intrinsic, or inherent to the product. Particulate matter, visible or subvisible, in sterile parenteral products is regarded a critical quality attribute, impacting patient safety. A session will focus on the nature and sources of these particles in parenterals and in infusion sets used in clinical studies and hospitals. The difference between particles in drugs and clinical infusions will be highlighted. Furthermore, packaging materials, such as glass vials, syringes and rubber stoppers, are known to be major sources of particulate contamination. A session will discuss defects in packaging materials and strategies employed to detect and control them. And last but not least, manual inspection continues to provide the critical reference method for all compendial inspection activity. Therefore, the concluding session will look at the use of particle standards to qualify manual and automated inspection systems, control of critical inspection parameters, as well as the development of an inspection method.

WELCOME TO PRAGUE Save the date for the 12th edition of the Pharmaceutical Cold & Supply Chain Logistics Conference which will take place 10â&#x20AC;&#x201C;11 October 2017 in Prague, Czech Republic. Here, you will meet experts from every stage in the supply chain who will share their knowledge on topics such as air and ocean freight, crossing borders, transport risk mitigation, temperature monitoring, and last mile distribution. After a medicine is manufactured, it may have to travel thousands of miles/kilometers before reaching its destination, be it a hospital, a pharmacy or a doctor. To ensure product quality and efficacy, the appropriate temperature needs to be monitored and ensured throughout every step of the journey. The PDA Europe Pharmaceutical Cold & Supply Chain Logistics Conference has proven to be the ideal event to learn everything about the various risks and hazards involved along this path, and how to manage them according to GMP and GDP regulation. As an attendee, you can expect knowledge acquisition through presentations by excellent speakers as well as lively discussions for you to contribute to, and of course there will be plenty of opportunities for personal networking and exchange of ideas. 29
