Abstract:  

"Implementation of Quality by Design for analytical methods during development through technology transfer"

Biography:

Dr. Rosario LoBrutto is a Project Leader (Senior Fellow) in the Product Development Unit at Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, East Hanover, NJ leading project teams responsible for development of active pharmaceutical ingredient finishing steps, drug product, manufacturing and analytics for multiple early to late stage potential drug candidates, and is responsible for teaching in-house HPLC method development training.  He is also the global Quality by Design/PAT network leader for pharmaceutical and analytical development.

Rosario received his Ph.D in Analytical Chemistry from Seton Hall University and his BS in Chemistry from Drexel University. Rosario worked in the Analytical Research Department (active pharmaceutical ingredient) at Merck for nine years, most recently as Project Leader managing early to late stage potential drug candidates. This included methods development and validation, in-process testing support (scale up from milligram to kilo scale to production scale and tech transfer to manufacturing facilities), release of clinical supplies and managing drug substance and raw material stability studies.

He has taught many HPLC method development short courses nationwide, has taught as visiting professor at Seton Hall University, has served as an adjunct professor at Stevens Institute of Technology since 1999, and as a short course lecturer for the University of Wisconsin-Extension Pharmacy program since 2006 and has chaired numerous sessions at various symposia.
He is an internationally recognized scientist, and an author/co-author of 28 research publications, 45 oral presentations and 30 poster presentations and 14 book chapters in various disciplines of analytical/physical chemistry.   His most recent accomplishment is serving as a co-editor and contributor for a book entitled, “HPLC for Pharmaceutical Scientists” published by Wiley in January 2007.   This book provides a unified approach to HPLC with an equal and balanced treatment of the theory and practice of HPLC in the pharmaceutical industry (from drug candidate inception to marketed drug product).
