USP’s Workshop on Glycosylation Analysis for Biopharmaceuticals will be a forum for manufacturers, academia and regulators to discuss aspects of protein glycosylation and its impact on product quality. The workshop will focus on the role of glycosylation in therapeutic proteins, current analytical methods and next-generation technologies for glycosylation measurements, and assessing product comparability from the perspective of regulatory authorities and pharmacopeias.
Poster Topics
- New Japanese Pharmacopoeia General Test and General Information for Glycosylation Analysis of Glycoprotein
- Advanced analytical technologies for N-Glycan profiling: Assessment of InstantABTM AssayMap® automation and GlycoworksTM Rapifluor-MSTM
- Rapid Level-3 Characterization of Glycoprotein Therapeutics by CESI-MS

Presentation Topics
- How glycosylation affects bioassay, pharmacokinetics, safety, clearance and immunogenicity
- Regulatory views on approval, comparability, legacy products and glycosylated biosimilars
- Current analytical technologies for oligosaccharide and monosaccharide mixtures
- Next-generation methods for analysis – such as O-link oligosaccharide analysis and glycoproteomics
- Emerging technologies – such as in vitro glycosylation and use of non-mammalian cells
- Standards procedures, material reference standards and pharmacopeial views on glycosylation
- Glycosylation control during post-approval changes—cell line considerations and cell culture processes
Objectives
- Address “critical features” of glycosylation and the relationship to pharmacological properties
- Broaden understanding of glycan analysis approaches
- Examine commonly-used methods for glycosylation analysis, challenges and emerging technologies
