A Strategy for Minimizing time and materials Maximizing process understanding (as defined as part of the collaboration with Janssen) • Identify system failure modes • Define measurements and metrics to predict
impact of failure modes for a given formulation • Build material property data base and predictive
models for new materials and surrogates in unit ops
• Use relevant failure mode knowledge to define DOEs and select PAT and control
• Perform integrated formulation and process optimization
Key Concepts for CM Adoption (as defined as part of the Janssen-Rutgers-Gent Collaboration)
1. Materials (API) Characterization and Prediction (material sparing, faster development)
2. Methods for Improving API Processability (manufacturability, enabling direct compression)
3. Process Modeling, Control, and PAT for CM RTR
4. Rapid Development for CM (faster development, process/analytical robustness)
5. Harmonization & Standardization (regulatory clarity) 7

• For a given new material, can we compare it to existing materials in the library?
• Once a new material is included in the material library, can we
predict its feeder performance? • Can we predict the optimal screw choice for a given new
material?

Alternatively, when material with matching flow properties is difficult to find, a partial least squares (PLS) regression can be used. A PLS regression model relates material flow properties directly to feeder performance, quantified by RSD and RDM.

• PLS regression helps to answer: 1. For a new material with given properties, can we predict RSD or RDM for a certain screw? 2. For a new material, what is the optimal screw selection?

• Initial feed factor reflects maximal feeding capacity for a material. • Results show that using scores of the first principal component, the
initial feed factor can be predicted based on the linear correlation. • The feed factor using different screws can also be predicted.
