California Separation Sciences Society (CaSSS) holds a two-day, highly interactive meeting with attendance from the biotechnology industry and global regulators each summer in the Washington, DC area (i.e., the CMC Strategy Forum).  This year the title of the forum was “The Future of Post-Approval Changes is Coming – Are You Ready for ICH Q12?” and it focused on the draft International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Q12 guideline (here) which addresses the technical and regulatory aspects of reporting post-approval changes to the regulatory bodies.
