The API manufacture process presents many challenges for you to overcome
A Qualified Person assumes personal responsibility for certifying each batch of material prior to release into EU, EEA or UK clinical trials.
Named on the Manufacturer’s and Importer’s License, their certification legally confirms that materials have been manufactured in full compliance with GMP and all relevant EU regulation, along with the Clinical Trial Application and Product Specification File.
QP Qualifications
A QP must have qualifications in Chemistry, Pharmacy or Microbiology. They must also have wide ranging technical knowledge and experience within the pharmaceutical industry.
Access to an appropriately qualified, in-house QP resource isn’t achievable for most sponsors, which is why many choose to outsource this highly specialist function to experts like us. Widely known and respected, our QPs have experience across a wide range of product types and dosage forms, while our highly experienced support team can assist you in the release of IMPs for use in clinical trials, including importation into the EU.
