Letter from the Chairs Dear Colleagues, This year, the PDA Europe Modern Biopharmaceutical Manufacturing Conference will take place for the 10 th consecutive time. This time, the event will be hosted in Lyon on 25-26 March 2014. During these past ten years, while keeping its focus on the regulatory and quality aspects of biopharmaceutical production, the annual event attempted to educate and provide guidance to its attendees working in a fast changing and highly regulated environment. The need to constantly improve patient needs while satisfying both regulatory and reimbursement agencies results in high pressure on the production of biopharmaceuticals. The consequence is the need to implement more cost-effective and flexible solutions in order to speed up time-to-market, but also a reduction in the cost of goods during manufacturing. Many concepts have been initiated and developed to achieve these goals. Major ones were around production facility design (dedicated vs. multi-product facilities, increased flexibility, single-use systems), and process improvement and simplification (QbD, continuous processing, single-use systems). As 2014 is a year of anniversary, we will continue to focus the overview of practical approaches on the challenges in development and manufacturing of biopharmaceutically and biotechnologically derived products in the current GMP environment. Among innovations and evaluation of novel developments that offer solutions to some of these challenges, the 2014 annual conference will also address the move towards continuous processing for biopharmaceuticals. The concept of continuous production is a topic of high interest not only for industry that sees it as a high potential for reducing cost of goods while increasing flexibility, but also to regulators as a path to improving product quality and patient safety. Four sessions will be organized around Multi-Product Lines, Flexible Facility Design & Set-Up, and Flexible Operations in Future Processes. The proposed topics will be covered by presenting case-studies and also by hosting Panel Discussions with Regulators that allow for the audience to share their questions and issues with the experts. The Scientific Planning Committee is looking forward to another successful event and warmly invites you to join us in Lyon in March 2014.

Agenda Tuesday, 25 March 2014 9:00 Welcome Georg Roessling, PDA Europe 9:15 Introduction Jean-Luc Clavelin, Co-Chair Christophe Grimm, Co-Chair Keynote 9:30 A New Way of Performing Bio-Manufacturing: Flexible Multiple Users, Multiple Products Facility at ACCINOV André Dupont, Accinov Session 1: Quality and Regulatory Update Moderator: Véronique Davoust 10:15 Process Validation of Bio API and QbD for Biologics Steffen Gross, PEI 10:45 Regulatory Guidance from an Industry Perspective European Industry Representative, invited 11:15 Panel Discussion with Regulators 12:00 Lunch Break & Exhibition Session 2: Multi-Product-Lines / Flexible Facility Design & Set-Up Moderator: Christian Valentin Operational efficiency in bio-manufacturing is moving the current bio-production model from the classical "one product" dedicated facility to an adaptive, flexible capability, multi-product environment. This session will cover key points to consider for multi-products manufacturing with industrial experts dealing with quality, technological and economic aspects, addressing multi-use challenges and opportunities: The Session will kick off with an outline of four major challenges of adapting output to demand and optimizing supply chains, discussing effective approaches to overcome them. Before we will see examples of flexible facilities in the future, the session continues with what to consider when setting up clinical fill-finish operations. As multi-product manufacturing is associated with Single-Use Technology, associated challenges and outcomes to design an efficient, flexible facility for monoclonal antibody production will be presented. The session will end with an economical perspective on cost effective design for upstream and downstream technological platforms. 13:00 Four Key Challenges for Biomanufacturers Stefan Schlack, Sartorius Stedim 13:30 Setting Up a Clinical Fill & Finish Operation Based on Disposable Technology Friedrich Harder, Vetter 14:00 Flexible Facilities of the Future Examples Maik W.

Agenda Wednesday, 26 March 2014 Session 3: Moving Towards Continuous Processing in Manufacturing Moderators: Thierry Ziegler Joseph Shultz This session will cover descriptions of the current status of continuous manufacturing as well as describe its impact on quality and regulatory considerations. Particular focus will be on learnings from previous experiences regarding small molecules, key drivers and technical challenges with Biopharmaceuticals, and on case studies covering both USP and DSP. A panel discussion will address quality and regulatory impact of continuous manufacturing in more detail as the audience will be able to share their experiences and ask specific questions. 9:00 Continuous Manufacturing, an Overview. Cost Drivers, Facility Impact, Quality Implications Andrew Sinclair, Biopharm 9:30 Case Study 1: Continuous Purification of mabs Thierry Ziegler, Sanofi 10:00 Coffee Break & Exhibition 10:30 Integrated Continuous Manufacturing of Protein Therapeutics - Case Study USP+DSP 11:00 Panel Discussion: Regulatory Aspects and Process Related Topics 11:45 Lunch Break & Exhibition Chris Hwang, Genzyme Moderator: Thierry Ziegler Session 4: Flexible Operations in Future Processes Moderator: Maik W. Jornitz With increasing diversity of therapies and drug product ranges, facility designs require to diversify as well. Inevitably, the facility designs of the future will not any longer be a legacy of the known, but a utilization of different tools from the toolbox of facility layouts. The therapeutic drug manufacturing industry has realized that change is inevitably needed; flexibility in clinical material and full-scale production is necessary to become more efficient and agile. This session will review the different facility layouts and closely appraise the flexible design opportunities. 12:45 Single-Use Factories vs. Re-Use & Hybrid Factories Joseph Shultz, Novartis 13:15 Flexible Operations: Questions on Implementation and Practical Conclusions Otto-Wilhelm Merten, Genethon 13:45 Dedicated or Shared Facilities and Why the Confusion?
