Pediatric formulations have become increasingly important as the healthcare field recognizes the huge impact that strict patient adherence can have on a treatment’s efficacy. But to overcome the challenges of adherence in children, drug developers need to consider innovative new dosage forms that can deliver flexible and convenient medications for young patients.

FDA has begun championing Quality Management Maturity (QMM), a new quality surveillance initiative intended to raise awareness at all levels of management in the pharmaceutical industry as to how to best achieve quality objectives and improve manufacturing site quality and supply chain reliability in drug manufacturing processes. QMM follows a maturity modeling paradigm. According to FDA, QMM is the state attained when drug manufacturers have consistent, reliable, and robust business processes to achieve quality objectives and promote continual improvement. FDA mentioned QMM in its 2019 report, Drug Shortages: Root Causes and Potential Solutions, which pointed to a lack of manufacturer incentives to improve their quality management beyond the minimum required for current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) compliance

Join the webinar to learn what QMM is, and how far beyond GMP functions QMM will drill into.


Compliance management: ability to consistently meet and/or exceed compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and industry best practices

Risk management: ability to identify and manage organizational risks and build resilience

Quality culture: ability to develop and maintain an organizational mindset and behaviors that value continuous learning and improvement, and customer satisfaction

Sustainability: ability to successfully secure and manage appropriate technology, infrastructure, human capital, suppliers, customers, institutional knowledge, and other resources to sustain the operations.

Pediatric populations represent the most diverse patient groups in all of medicine. Factors such as individual preferences, physiology, and dosage considerations all serve to complicate drug formulation aimed at pediatric care. Drug formulation for children has become increasingly important as the healthcare field recognizes the huge impact that strict patient adherence can have on a treatment’s efficacy as well as how off-label administration of a therapy, more common among younger and older patients, can both decrease efficacy and create the potential for medication-related toxicities.


In this webcast, three panel speakers will discuss the unmet needs within the pediatric population and related clinical recommendations for pediatric dosage forms. Swallowability challenges and the impact to children’s medication, and strategies to optimize pediatric formulation development resulting in improved patient outcomes within the pediatric population will be discussed. Join the webinar to learn how you can apply these strategies for your products today.

Learn about the unmet needs facing pediatric populations:

Dose Volume and Liquid Dose Measuring Challenges

Challenges Specific to Pediatric Formulation Development

Strategies and Solutions to Improve Patient Outcomes

Swallowability and Determining the Right Dosage Form

Swallowing Challenges Unique to Pediatrics

Strategies for Improving Medication Acceptability
