The 14th edition of the Workshop on Recent Issues in Bioanalysis (14th WRIB) was held virtually on June 15-29, 2020 with an attendance of over 1000 representatives from pharmaceutical/biopharmaceutical companies, biotechnology companies, contract research organizations, and regulatory agencies worldwide. The 14th WRIB included three Main Workshops, seven Specialized Workshops that together spanned 11 days in order to allow exhaustive and thorough coverage of all major issues in bioanalysis, biomarkers, immunogenicity, gene therapy and vaccine. Moreover, a comprehensive vaccine assays track; an enhanced cytometry track and updated Industry/Regulators consensus on BMV of biotherapeutics by LCMS were special features in 2020. As in previous years, this year's WRIB continued to gather a wide diversity of international industry opinion leaders and regulatory authority experts working on both small and large molecules to facilitate sharing and discussions focused on improving quality, increasing regulatory compliance and achieving scientific excellence on bioanalytical issues. This 2020 White Paper encompasses recommendations emerging from the extensive discussions held during the workshop, and is aimed to provide the Global Bioanalytical Community with key information and practical solutions on topics and issues addressed, in an effort to enable advances in scientific excellence, improved quality and better regulatory compliance. Due to its length, the 2020 edition of this comprehensive White Paper has been divided into three parts for editorial reasons. This publication covers the recommendations on (Part 2A) BAV, PK LBA, Flow Cytometry Validation and Cytometry Innovation and (Part 2B) Regulatory Input. Part 1 (Innovation in Small Molecules, Hybrid LBA/LCMS & Regulated Bioanalysis), Part 3 (Vaccine, Gene/Cell Therapy, NAb Harmonization and Immunogenicity) are published in volume 13 of Bioanalysis, issues 4, and 6 (2021), respectively.

The 14

On January 26-27,2004 a workshop on Dissolution,Bioequivalence and Bioavailability was held in Philadelphia,PA,during a three punch snow storm on the east coast. In spite of the bad weather,the attendance was good and the participants brought many questions and the discussions were fruitful. The meeting began with Tahseen Mirza,Ph.D., the conference chairperson,former USP,current Associate Director Analytical and Pharmaceutical Development,Novartis Pharmaceutical Corp, summarizing the objectives of the meeting. He emphasized the significance of establishing a clear objective before developing dissolution methods. It must be specified whether it is a test of pharmaceutical quality or a test of biopharmaceutical quality and then design the method development strategies accordingly. He identified the following ten topics and questions as the focus of the workshop.

This report summarizes the results of the "In Vitro-In Vivo Correlations (IVIVC): Critical Variables for Success" survey orga- nized by the In Vitro Release and Dissolution Testing (IVRDT) and the QbD and Product Performance AAPS Focus Groups. This was a web-based survey conducted over a 26-day period from Wednesday, June 29, 2011, to Sunday, July 24, 2011, and results were initially presented at the 2011 AAPS Annual Meeting and Exposition. The goal was to describe the current views from scientists across academia, industry, and regulatory agencies on the adoption, utility, and benefits of IVIVCs and to begin identifying potentially critical variables for their success. Questions in the survey cover their development, use, and success.
