Abstract:
With decommissioning of internal regulated bioanalytical (BA) and toxicokinetic (TK) capabilities, Novartis has relied on external service providers (ESPs) for all nonclinical LC-MS BA and majority of the associated TK work since 2017. This paper outlines an integrated outsourcing practice of the Novartis nonclinical LC-MS BA/TK group, which covers the roles and responsibilities of Novartis nonclinical LC-MS BA/TK expert scientific monitors, selection of ESPs for Novartis nonclinical LC-MS BA/TK studies, qualification of BA/TK ESPs, study conduct and completion, ESP oversight and evaluation, issue mitigation, and future perspectives.
