PAT and UPLC Round TableIntroducing PATROL SystemsDavid LascouxJean-Michel PlankeeleBiopharma LC MeetingEschborn, October 17th 2012 Waters Corporation1
What Is PAT?What Are the PATROL Systems For? PAT, PATROL: Process Analytical Technology– ICH Guideline Q8(R2) and ICH Q9 & Q10 :oA system for designing, analyzing, and controllingmanufacturing through timely measurements (i.e., duringprocessing) of critical quality and performance attributes of rawand in-process materials and processes with the goal of ensuringfinal product quality All tools (techniques) for measuring/controlling the quality ofany (chemical/production) process What is the Purpose of PAT?– Improve knowledge (about a process) & reduce variability– Improve the process– Implementation of a QbD approach with real time data 2012 Waters Corporation2
Sensor Technology Utilized forPAT Applications Today Probes (Temp, pH)Dissolved Gas (02, CO2)Total Organic Carbon (TOC)Near-Infrared (NIR)Infrared (IR)RamanUV-visibleFourier Transform Infrared (FTIR)X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) Real time, simple, non destructive, fast response But not quantitative, not specific, lack of resolution 2012 Waters Corporation3
Liquid ChromatographyLab Analysis Reference Standard HPLC is a major analytical technique in every QC lab– Too slow to get a “real-time” answer– But it is not a major tool for Online/At-line analysis UPLC overcomes limitations of HPLC– Performance improvements– Richer information– Increased speed times of 10x or fasterEnd ofProcessUPLCHPLC0 2012 Waters Corporation3691215 182124 27Minutes30 3336394

Opening Questions Would direct transfer method & process be beneficial?– Improve handshake between development and production?– Minimize scale up risk?– Enable broader use of scientific information? How does “real time” monitoring & control benefit your process?– Enable improved yields & cycle times while reducing offline testing?– Create fewer operator, dilution or equipment variability errors?– What is the commercial value of this impact? Can technology effectively extend the life of your product?Time to Market (12-14 yrs)Sales/Profits (10-12 yrs)Patent Protection (20 yrs) 2012 Waters Corporation13
