Process Analytical Technology
ICH Q8: PAT: A system for designing and
controlling manufacturing through timely
measurements (i.e. during processing) of critical
quality and performance attributes for raw and in-
process materials and also processes with the
goal of ensuring final product quality

Real-time release
The product specification still applies as for
traditionally released products
Conformance to the specification is
demonstrated in a different way: Not by end
control, but by prediction from information
elements obtained during manufacture
During shelf life, traditional testing applies
Selected tests may be substituted one by one,
resulting in a reduced end control scheme
