BioBoston Consulting Services helps biotech firms stay compliant with 21 CFR regulations, ensuring GMP, process validation, and risk management. Contact us for expert guidance!
In the tightly regulated environment of biotechnology, compliance with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is always mandatory. Biotech companies are also subject to one of the most stringent regulations, to the Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) – or more specifically 21 CFR which contains the requirements for producer, handler, and distributor for the pharmaceutical, biologic and device industries. This adherence ensures products are safe, effective, and of the highest quality.
Biotech firms turning to face these hurdles of 21 CFR can be highly daunting. This is where BioBoston Consulting Services comes into play, providing the necessary expertise to keep your company 21 CFR compliant.
What is 21 CFR and Why the Attention?
21 CFR refers to a portion of the U.S. Federal Code of Regulations that dictates FDA regulations for pharmaceuticals, biologics, and medical devices. It encompasses everything from Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), laboratory tests, clinical trial requisites, to product and labeling. Regulations are intended to protect consumers and to make sure the products comply with strict safety, efficacy and quality standards.
For biotech, non-compliance can lead to recalls, litigation or a stoppage of production. Severe financial penalties, lawsuits, and damaged company reputation are all potential consequences of non-compliance.
