To date there have been no double-stranded oligonucleotide therapies marketed. This session will focus on the control strategy elements to be considered for the development and registration of double-stranded oligonucleotide therapies. Joined by both industry and regulatory agency presenters and panelists, this session will review and discuss the key principles and challenges in the double-stranded oligonucleotide API and drug product process control strategy (e.g., control of impurities, annealing, sterilization), as well as analytical development and product life cycle management. Both oligonucleotide conjugates and other different drug product formulations will be considered.

Learning Objective :
  • Define control strategy elements that are specific for double-stranded oligonucleotides
  • Identify different approaches in characterizing and controling product quality
