At GlaxoSmithKline we use sequential experimental design to generate the process understanding that identifies critical process parameters and safe operating conditions for the manufacture of active pharmaceutical ingredients used in medicines. We are always looking for more efficient and effective experimental strategies and ways of managing uncertainty.

At a recent conference, Stuart Hunter observed that “within the last ten years there has been some spectacular progress in the field of experimental design – the arena has completely changed”. We want to show the decision-making progress around how much, and when to invest in experimental designs, what are the benefits, what risks are faced and are these acceptable? We will discuss how we have taken learnings from a couple of recently published papers on Supersaturated Designs and Definitive Designs and show how we have implemented these ideas to add value within GlaxoSmithKline
