Session 3A: Starting Materials: Beyond Simple DNA and RNA Derived Phosphoramidites
Session Chair(s)

Wincott & Associates, LLC, United States
There has been a dramatic increase in the complexity of drug candidates being promoted into preclinical and clinical development. These oligonucleotides often have significant chemical modifications requiring specialty starting materials. Furthermore, recent communications from regulatory authorities regarding the selection and justification of starting materials have been issued. This session will address the general starting material principles outlined in Q11 and the accompanying Q&A document. In addition, strategies for defining and sourcing non-standard oligonucleotide-specific starting materials will be presented. The presentations will be followed by a 30 minute panel discussion.
