Plan for Your Extractables and Leachables Studies to Meet your Submission Timelines
Demonstrating the compatibility of any material in contact with drug product throughout its lifecycle (manufacture, containment, and delivery) is a necessity for a regulatory submission. Defined as extractables and leachables, these assessments continue to evolve and expand due to consistently increasing regulatory agency expectations. Agency expectations require you to act sooner rather than later. Waiting until Phase III in drug development can lead to delays and additional costs due to poor assessments that are questioned by the reviewer, or incomplete submissions that require you to redo or execute additional work. You can start your Extractables and Leachables (E&L) assessment as soon as you have selected your packaging components.
