RESUMEN
The ICH M10 guideline on bioanalytical method validation and sample analysis is being adopted since 2023. However, and inevitably, some paragraphs or requirements remain ambiguous and are open for different interpretations. In support of a harmonized interpretation by the industry and health authorities, the European Bioanalysis Forum organized a workshop on 14 November 2023 in Barcelona, Spain, to discuss unclear and/or ambiguous paragraphs which were identified by the European Bioanalysis Forum community and delegates of the workshop prior to the workshop. This manuscript reports back from the workshop with recommendations and aims at continuing an open scientific discussion within the industry and with regulators in support of a science-driven guideline for the bioanalytical community and in line with the ICH mission - that is, achieve greater harmonization worldwide to ensure that safe, effective and high-quality medicines are developed and registered in the most resource-efficient manner.
