Considerations Regarding the Impact of Nanomaterials on Drug Products Katherine Tyner, PhD FDA/CDER/DARS January 14, 2013 Why Apply Nanotechnology to Drugs ? Combination of size and surface effects novel properties Increase
Why Apply Nanotechnology to Drugs?
Combination of size and surface effects → novel properties
- Increase bioavailability
- Change biodistribution
- Increased drug action
- Stabilize easily degradable
drugs
- Deliver drugs
– Targeted/controlled/smart delivery of API
- Multifunctional capabilities

Considerations for Nano-Drug Formulations
- There is no FDA definition for “nanotechnology” or related terms
- Regulations and Law do NOT separate nanotechnology products
- All nano-drugs are treated on a case by case basis
- Look to regulations and guidances
– Part 314: Applications for FDA approval to market a new drug
- http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFRsearch.cfm?CFRPart=314
– Part 58: Good laboratory practices for nonclinical laboratory studies
- http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/cfrsearch.cfm?cfrpart=58
– Part 211: Current good manufacturing practices for finished pharmaceuticals
- http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFRSearch.cfm?CFRPart=211
What are the common challenges in developing nanomedicines from manufacturing and regulatory (CMC) perspective?
Characterization of Nano-Drug Formulations
- 21 CFR 314.50(d) requires:
– Full description of physical and chemical characteristics and stability for the drug substance – Identity – Strength – Quality – Purity – Potency – Bioavailability
http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFRSearch.cfm?CFRPart=314&showFR=1&subpartNode=21:5.0.1.1.4.2
Suggested Minimal Characterization of Nanomaterials
- Particle size/size distribution
- Agglomeration/aggregation
- Chemical composition
- Crystal structure/crystallinity
- Purity
- Shape
- Surface area
- Porosity
- Endotoxin content
- Solubility
- Stability
- Concentration
- Surface charge
- Surface chemistry
- Zeta potential
- Surface energy
- Catalytic properties
- Dustiness
- Oleophilicity/hydrophilicity
- Grain size
- Photocatalytyic activity
- Octanol-water partition
coefficient
- Redox potential
- Radical formation potential

Session 2—Key Thoughts & Questions
Key Thoughts
- Look to regulations and guidances
when developing nanodrugs
- Manufacturing and characterization
techniques may be specific for individual nano-drugs
- Consider all parts of a product’s
properties and design tests accordingly
Key Questions
- What are the challenges in
developing nano-drugs from manufacturing and regulatory (CMC) perspectives?
- How are nano methods being
integrated into the drug manufacturing process?
- What current limitations are
encountered with today’s nanomaterials and how is the next generation of nano-products expected to address these limitations?
Session 2 — Overview
- Analytical Considerations for the characterization of
nanomaterial drug products
– Christie Sayes, PhD—RTI International
- Panel discussion on manufacturing considerations
for nanomaterials in drug products
– Marcus Brewster, PhD—Janssen Research and Development – Neil Desai, PhD—Celgene – Donna Cabral-Lilly, PhD—Celator Pharmaceuticals Inc. – Lawrence Tamarkin, PhD, CytImmune
Break out sessions
- A: Analytical methods used for the characterization of
nanomaterials: limitations and need for additional research
- B: Current and emerging technologies for manufacturing
stable nanomaterial containing drug products
- Each session will be run twice, and you are encouraged to
attend each session
- Speakers and panelists will be participating in these session
- Time for extended discussion and Q & A
