How good are Avellanet’s Webinars? So good that Webinar registrants become his clients:

“It was a pleasure listening to your webinar on 21 CFR Part 11 this week. I spoke with management and they are interested in your assistance with our SAP validation.”

FDA is increasingly holding both sponsors and contract organizations responsible for a product’s safety and effectiveness. Whether in clinical trials or in the post-market stage, patient safety is the #1 driver for FDA enforcement. So how do you ensure your CMO or CRO can pass an inspection centered around your product? And will the agency only inspect the contracted manufacturer or trial monitor … or are there reasons why the inspector will visit you first?
Join supplier compliance expert, John Avellanet, as he walks attendees through the FDA’s evolving approach to enforcing product safety and efficacy when it comes to CMOs and CROs.
