Zielsetzung

During this conference, speakers from authorities, industry, sciences and donation services provide you with information about the current developments and revisions of the regulatory requirements, e.g. for virus safety or for process validation. You will also find out more about the strategies to accomplish the goal of a European standard. Furthermore, the developments in microbial safety – requirements and methods – will be introduced. You will benefit from experts presenting their practical experiences and knowledge in the field of quality and safety of blood, blood products and plasma.
Other information provided during this course includes Donor Vigilance, quality requirements of plasma fractionators and preparative plasmapheresis issues.

Hintergrund

During the next years, blood donation services, plasma establishments and the plasma industry expect an increasing need of plasma for fractionation. Due to patient blood management and the decreasing recovered plasma this problem can be solved only by extension of plasmapheresis and increased procurement of source plasma in Europe and worldwide. Especially new indications of blood products –e.g. the use of IVIG in immunologic disorders – will cause a growth of plasma derived medicinal products. Against this background, the number of donations must be increased to ensure the patient centred care as well as the supply of the industry. The amount of imported plasma for fractionation between the European countries as well as from USA will also increase. The necessary base for a comprehensive and sufficient maintenance in the EU countries is a consistent and standardised level of quality and safety of blood and plasma donations.
Based on the regulations of the European Union, e.g.
Directive 2002/98/EC “Setting standards of quality and safety for the collection, testing, processing, storage and distribution of human blood and blood components and amending Directive 2001/83/EC”,
the “Plasma Master File”,
the European Pharmacopoeia or
the EDQM “Guide to the preparation, use and quality assurance of blood components”
integrative procedures for all countries are essential. Donor screening, microbial testing, donation practises and later on storage, distribution and look back systems should be on the same level in all member states.

Additionally, new guidelines and guideline drafts related to microbiological safety issues – like those related to HEV transmission or to classic GMP issues like process validation – have an impact on the field of blood and plasma products.

Zielgruppe

This conference is designed for people from
Donation services/Blood services
QA Staff
National and international Authorities
Plasma Fractionation
Control Laboratories
who are involved in regulatory affairs, quality assurance, quality control and manufacturing of blood, blood products or plasma.

Optional pre-conference Workshop on Recombinant Factors, 18 April 2016

The workshop is focused on recent developments in haemophilia treatment, i.e. use of recombinant coagulation factors. There are single full-length as well as domain-deleted factors, but also fusion
proteins, linking a coagulation factor with another molecule, that lead to a prolonged half-life of the respective factor in plasma due to retarded factor disintegration. As haemophilia requires lifetime medical treatment and numerous administrations of factor substitutes, the use of long-acting coagulation factors would lead to less frequent replacement therapy and hence contributes to patient's well-being. The immunological impact of the different modifications on patients is one of the last open issues. The workshop will be a good opportunity to discuss and share regulatory as well as companies experiences on those products.
