QbD Principles Document

Expert Meetings

The Principles Document outlines high-level principles for building quality into trials and is intended as a tool for inquiry into “critical to quality” factors (CTQs) and associated risks. The Principles Document asks questions to promote proactive, cross-functional discussions and critical thinking at the time of trial development about what is critical to quality for a specific trial, and about the events that might impede or facilitate achieving quality. It is not intended to be all-inclusive, serve as a checklist to be completed in isolation, or be a substitute for experience and critical thinking. Watch Ann Meeker-O'Connell from Johnson & Johnson provide an introduction to the QbD Principles Document.
