Session 4 Part A: Ongoing Research in Long-Acting Generic Drug-Device Implant Products
Session Chair(s)
Darby Kozak, PhD
Lead for Complex Drug Substances and Dosage Forms, OGD, CDER, FDA, United States
Long-acting generic drug-device implantable products, such as intrauterine devices (IUDs), are complex products that can provide effective treatment for multiple years. These products are currently used by thousands of people in the United States. Although critical to public health, there are currently no approved generic IUD products due in part to the multifaceted considerations and associated challenges in their development. This is due in part to the complexity of IUD device design and materials used, in addition to the challenges associated designing an appropriate bioequivalence study for this type of product. This session will highlight the latest scientific research on physicochemical and bioequivalence testing for IUD products.
