Level: Intermediate

This Short Course will be offered virtually – Join from anywhere! In this short course, participants will gain hands-on experience in applying Risk-Based Quality Management (RBQM) principles, grounded in the Quality by Design (QbD) framework, to real-world clinical trial scenarios. Working in small groups, participants will analyze a three-page real-life study synopsis, using guidance from ICH E6(R2/R3), to identify critical data, critical processes, and potential risks. Following an instructor-led introduction to key concepts like risk scoring and mitigation strategies, participants will identify and prioritize risks, create actionable risk statements, develop mitigation plans, define Key Risk Indicators (KRIs), and establish Quality Tolerance Limits (QTLs).

With feedback from expert instructors, participants will refine their critical thinking and learn how to distinguish key data and processes in clinical trials. This approach emphasizes practical relevance, equipping attendees with tools to apply RBQM and QbD principles to their own protocols immediately. Through collaborative group work and actionable insights, attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how to embed ICH E6(R3)-aligned QbD strategies into their risk management practices.

Learning objectives

At the conclusion of this short course, participants should be able to:
  • Identify critical data and critical processes, determine the risks and define a risk statement
  • Evaluate the risks regarding likelihood, impact and detectability, and define suitable mitigation actions, KRIs and QTLs
  • Evaluate compliance with ICH E6 R2/R3 and increase the potential for study success
