This article is the second part of a two-tiered publication aiming at providing guidance for implementation of the multi-attribute method by peptide mapping liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (MAM) in a QC laboratory. The first part [1] focuses on technical considerations, while this second part provides considerations related to GMP compliance and regulatory aspects. This publication has been prepared by a group of industry experts representing 14 globally acting major biotechnology companies under the umbrella of the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA) Manufacturing & Quality Expert Group (MQEG).
