FDA/M-CERSI Co-Processed API Workshop Proceedings.

These proceedings contain presentation summaries and discussion highlights from the University of Maryland Center of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation (M-CERSI) Workshop on Co-processed API, held on July 13 and 14, 2022. This workshop examined recent advances in the use of co-processed active pharmaceutical ingredients as a technology to improve drug substance physicochemical properties and drug product manufacturing process robustness, and explored proposals for enabling commercialization of these transformative technologies. Regulatory considerations were discussed with a focus on the classification, CMC strategies, and CMC documentation supporting the use of this class of materials from clinical studies through commercialization. The workshop format was split between presentations from industry, academia and the FDA, followed by breakout sessions structured to facilitate discussion. Given co-processed API is a relatively new concept, the authors felt it prudent to compile these proceedings to gain further visibility to topics discussed and perspectives raised during the workshop, particularly during breakout discussions. Disclaimer: This paper reflects discussions that occurred among stakeholder groups, including FDA, on various topics. The topics covered in the paper, including recommendations, therefore, are intended to capture key discussion points. The paper should not be interpreted to reflect alignment on the different topics by the participants, and the recommendations provided should not be used in lieu of FDA published guidance or direct conversations with the Agency about a specific development program.

Efficient use of the iron ortho-nitrophenylporphyrin chloride to mimic biological oxidations of dimethylaminoantipyrine.

Major metabolites of dimethylaminoantipyrine have been synthesized using iron ortho-nitrophenylporphyrin chloride as biomimetic catalyst. Reactivity of iron tetrakis-ortho-nitrophenylporphyrin chloride [Fe(TNO2PP)Cl] has been compared with iron tetrakis-pentafluorophenylporphyrin chloride and iron tetrakis-2,6-dichlorophenylporphyrin chloride using various oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide, iodosobenzene, and cumene hydroperoxide in either protic or aprotic solvent. Effect of imidazole has been showed on the reactivity of Fe(TNO2PP)Cl/cumene hydroperoxide system.
