This is the only guide available to tackle this subject in-depth. The Second Edition expands coverage from chemical stability into the physical aspects of stress testing, and incorporates the concept of Quality by Design into the stress testing construct / framework. It has been revised and expanded to include chapters on large molecules, such as proteins and antibodies, and it outlines the changes in stress testing that have emerged in recent years. Key features include: A renowned Editorial team and contributions from all major drug companies, q reflecting a wealth of experience. 10 new chapters, including Stress Testing and its relationship to the assessment q of potential genotoxic degradants, combination drug therapies, proteins, oligonucleotides, physical changes and alternative dosage forms such as liposomal formulations Updated methodologies for predicting drug stability and degradation pathways q Best practice models to follow q An expanded Frequently Asked Questions section q This is an essential reference book for Pharmaceutical Scientists and those working in Quality Assurance and Drug Development (analytical sciences, formulations, chemical process, project management).

Implementation included developing thought leaders in key areas, incorporating them into an “ASAP Working Group,” and systematically communicating an understanding of the approach and the potential value that could be realized in the various areas of the organization. Key variables such as water activity, rapid humidity and temperature equilibration strategies, and methodology considerations are discussed. Efforts for continuous improvement of the approach are ongoing and are led by the ASAP Working Group. Case studies are provided for starting materials, intermediates, and final drug substance, as well as lyophilized and solid oral drug products.

The major mechanisms of chemical decomposition of pharmaceuticals include hydrolysis/dehydration, oxidation, isomerization/epimerization, decarboxylation, rearrangements, dimerization/polymerization, and photolysis and transformation products involving reaction with excipients/salt forms. In order to develop an understanding of the chemistry of such reactions, a basic knowledge of organic chemistry is needed. Providing such a background is not the purpose of this book, and therefore the reader may find it useful to

(III) is formed via the allene oxide (II) which is also a possible precursor of 5,6-trans-prostaglandins isolated from the title coral.
