This document discusses regulatory and monetary drivers for implementing real-time analytics in biotech processes. Regulatory drivers include enabling quality by design approaches through continuous process monitoring and improvement. Real-time data collection allows for better design space definition and linking of critical process parameters to critical quality attributes. Monetary benefits include fewer lost batches through higher quality, faster processing times, and potential transition to continuous manufacturing with higher facility utilization.

Defining Real-Time Analytics
The FDA Guidance on Process Analytical Technology
Describes Real-Time Analytics as:
Nondestructive measurements that contain information
related to biological, physical, and chemical attributes
of the materials being processed. These measurements
can be:
at-line: Measurement where the sample is removed,
isolated from, and analyzed in close proximity to the
process stream.
on-line: Measurement where the sample is diverted from
the manufacturing process, and may be returned to the
process stream.
in-line: Measurement where the sample is not removed
from the process stream and can be invasive or
noninvasive

10. Quality By Design
the desired state of pharmaceutical
manufacturing and regulation may be
characterized as follows:
Product quality and performance are ensured
through the design of effective and efficient
manufacturing processes
Product and process specifications are based on a
mechanistic understanding of how formulation
and process factors affect product performance
Continuous real time quality assurance
