4. Overview of the workshop:
As more and more drug products are being developed
as combination products, device development plays
a critical role. To successfully develop a combination
product, it requires collaboration and consideration from
multiple angels.
In this workshop we will dive into each of these factors
from primary container and device selection to how to
manufacturing considerations and ways to platform and
streamline development activities without running into
regulatory risks. Some of the areas we will explore include
• Drug product and primary container interaction and
impact on device selection and development
• How to select the right device and utilizing design
control and strategic approaches to minimize
development risks and timeline.
• Design verifi cation, biocompatibility, extractable and
leachables
• Packaging and manufacturing consideration
• Stability and controls strategy
Reasons to Attend:
• Learn about interlinked relationship between drug
product, primary container, device, and packaging.
• Consideration and ways to minimize device
development risks
• Dive into design verifi cation, biocompatibility, EL, and
control strategies
• Role packaging play in successful combination
product
• Process development and consideration
About the workshop Leader:
Michael Song leads the Device Functionality, Safety
and Digital Connectivity group at MedImmune, a
Member of the AstraZeneca Group. In his current role,
he oversees device functionality; primary container
science and technology; biocompatibility; container
closure integrity testing; and digital connectivity. Prior
to his current role, Michael was head of Device and
Package Engineering at Adello Biologics, a member

Drug Delivery Device Testing Solutions
Overview of the workshop:
In the drug delivery device, testing world, the regulatory
requirements add complexity to the simplest of test.
What occurs when the testing moves from the simple
to multifaceted is an exponential amount of effort to
meet industry demands. Finding the best partner starts
with a full understanding of your internal and external
requirements. Uncovering the unknowns is an arduous
task but a crucial one to your success.

How to pass a Human Factors Validation study
Overview of the workshop:
Hear expert opinions on how to structure a human
factors program from product conceptualization and
early design through risk analysis development and
iterative usability testing in order to pass a human factors
validation study on the fi rst attempt.
Reasons to Attend:
• Learn how to build and optimize your company’s
human factors and usability engineering process
and how that can be applied to every development
project in order to reduce development delays and
improve the chances of fi rst-time success
• Discuss the regulatory imperative of HFE, and the focus
on use-related harm, as well as other uses of HFE
• Discuss how HFE as an RD activity, not a
documentation activity
• Discuss development and testing of instructions
for use (IFU)
• Discuss how to scale HFE programs and how programs
vary from product to product
About the workshop leaders:
Pati andMarc manage all aspects of human factors projects
at Core Human Factors. Our experience includes hundreds
of different types of medical devices and combination
products. We have worked on every phase of HF work, run
