The regulation of pharmaceutical and biological products often overlaps. This course will provide a comprehensive understanding of the administrative agencies that impact these industries, which FDA center regulates, depending on the product, and how they interact. Learn about the development of drug and biological products, FDA’s review and approval of marketing applications, generic drugs and biosimilars, manufacturing issues, advertising and promotion, and related issues. Case studies, hypotheticals, and ample time for Q&A is provided.
