PIC/S liaises with major Professional OrganisationsPIC/S liaises with major professional organisations such as ISPE and PDA, active in the field of interpretation & guidance documents as well as training;The support of industry associations and professional organisations to the goals of PIC/S is crucial.Slide24

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

PIC/S Liaison with other organisationsIn the PIC/S Blueprint, Co-operation between PIC/S and other organisations should be based on the principle of complementarity. Where PIC/S Participating Authorities are already actively co-operating, PIC/S as an organisation should not duplicate Members’ efforts.Slide25

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

PIC/S's perspectives Trends and Observations related to inspectionsUS/FDA makes their inspection results available to the public due to the Freedom of Information Act (FOI). However, very rarely, inspection results of European supervisory authorities are accessible in any public domain except analysis of regulatory / GMP inspection findings that are periodically published by UK/MHRA and European Medicines Agency (EMA). All rights reserved PIC/S 2014 Slide26

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

PIC/S's perspectives Trends and Observations related to inspections At PIC/S level, a similar exercise has never been done before in spite of the fact that PIC/S is an international organization with membership spread across all the 6 continents globally but as part of the PIC/S Seminar 2011 on “Good Pharmaceutical Inspection Practices”, developed a worshop “Similarities and differences for top 10 deficiencies cited by PIC/S Members; Hans Smallenbroek (Netherlands/IGZ) and Boon Meow Hoe (Singapore/HSA)Slide27

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

PIC/S's perspectives Trends and Observations related to inspectionsMethodologyQuestionnaire invite all PIC/S Participating Authorities and applicants to offer data. 1. Top ten & most frequently cited categories of GMP deficiencies2. Top five &f most severe GMP deficiencies (critical and/or major)The scope of the survey was defined for GMP inspection findings of finished product dosage form manufacturers only, including medicines for veterinary use and investigational medicinal products, if applicable. Inspections of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) were out of the scope of this survey.Slide28

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

PIC/S's perspectives Trends and Observations related to inspectionsPIC/S did not have a formal model “Categories of GMP Deficiencies”, the model of “Categories of GMP Deficiencies” used by UK/MHRA was used as a standard template. However, flexibilities were given to PIC/S Participating Authorities and applicants which might wish to use their own model of “Categories of GMP Deficiencies”. Inspection findings were classified into the categories “critical:”, “major” and “others or minor”Slide29

Trends and Observations related to inspectionsGENERAL OBSERVATIONSDifferences PIC/S Participating Authorities use different GMP deficiencies classification model:Some used the model developed by UK/MHRA;Some use the PIC/S GMP Part I model i.e. in according to the 9 Chapters and Annex 1.Some have their own classification methodology.Some members did not have formal analysis trending on such GMP deficiencies.Slide37

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspections Review similarities and differences for the top 10 deficiencies GENERAL OBSERVATIONSSome of the most frequently cited GMP deficiencies may due to easy detection as part of the inspection process. (E.g. Documentation – manufacturing -- #1 most frequently cited deficiency).The design and maintenance of premises ranked as #2 most frequently cited deficiency may relate to aged buildings or saving on maintenance budget.Slide38

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspections Review similarities and differences for the top 10 deficiencies GENERAL OBSERVATIONS The 10 most frequently cited GMP deficiency classes meant that the industry is weak in these areas and inspectors should communicate moreeffectively and efficiently to the industry on suchweaknesses.Different level of details of the deficiency classes model observed. A model that could be accepted by most PIC/S PAs may be requiredSlide39

Trends and Observations related to inspections Common model recommendation Adopt this exercise at PIC/S level in an annual basis. Output may be used as a Training Need Analysis to identify common specific GMP areas to be focused on training and to pull all resources together within PIC/S.PIC/S may wish to consider to develop a PIC/S common GMP deficiencies classification model May 2013, established Working Group coordinated by TGA (...)Slide40

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspections Data trending recommendation All PIC/S Participating Authority (PA) should consider to implement and put in place such exercise for analysis and trending within a defined period (e.g. annually) and subsequently, for trending across different years.Slide41

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspections ConclusionThere is a correlation between the most frequent GMP Deficiencies Classes and the most severe GMP Deficiencies Classes. There is no significant differences among regionsThis implies that there is harmonisation across all PIC/S Participating Authorities.Slide42

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspectionsPIC/S reviews deficienciesfound during inspections of API manufacturing facilities Efforts and strategic plan are focused in 4 key areas: identifying regions and countries where the inspectorate and industry have greater needs of GMP training in APIs; providing the inspectorate with up-to-date information on advanced or complex APIs manufacturing processes; through partnership with technical organizations and established procedures, ensuring that the inspectorate is exposed to new technologySlide45

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspectionsPIC/S reviews deficienciesfound during inspections of API manufacturing facilitiesFive API Expert Circles have been held,in September 2012, in Washington DC, where approximately 130 inspectors were trained on sterile APIs and biotechnology manufacturing. The 6th Expert Circle on APIs will be held in Rome on May 19-21, 2014 on the topic of API process validation and contemporary issues. (…)Slide46

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspectionsPIC/S reviews deficienciesfound during inspections of API manufacturing facilities Since the implementation of Q7, most API manufacturers appear to have a better understanding of GMP principles.  Many firms have good quality systems, process understanding, seek opportunities for optimization, have robust change-controls systems, and have good laboratory controls and procedures to facilitate knowledge management. On the other hand, inspections also reveal that some API manufacturers continue to struggle with achieving sustainable compliance with GMP requirements.  Slide47

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspectionsPIC/S reviews deficiencies found during inspections of API manufacturing facilities Inspections of API facilities, conducted by PIC/S members, have recently been reporting critical deficiencies related to laboratory controls, records/investigations, quality systems, equipment cleaning/maintenance, and process validation. Slide48

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspectionsPIC/S reviews deficienciesfound during inspections of API manufacturing facilitiesData integrity issuesPIC/S members and partners have also noted an increase in findings of data-integrity practices during inspections of API sites. These deficiencies include: recording data in logbooks, falsification of batch records and test results, pretesting samples and ignoring or not investigating out-of-specification results, blending or mixing API batches that failed to meet the established released specifications with batches that met the required final specifications, lacking the necessary controls in handling and managing critical data, and entering manufacturing activities on records before they had occurred.Slide49

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspectionsPIC/S reviews deficiencies found during inspections of API manufacturing facilitiesOutsourced operations and the changing face of API manufacturingWith the increase in the outsourcing of APIs by sponsors/drug applicants/finished drug product owners/contract givers (party that purchases APIs), there is more concern about how the roles and responsibilities of each party are established and managed.Slide50

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspectionsPIC/S reviews deficiencies found during inspections of API manufacturing facilities.During PIC/S’ API Expert Circles, inspectors are trained on new technology, quality trends, and critical deficiencies and how to detect problems that may affect the quality of the APIs produced and that may impact the finished drug products, and subsequently affect the patients who consume these medicines. Slide51

All rights reserved PIC/S 2014

Trends and Observations related to inspectionsPIC/S reviews deficienciesfound during inspections of API manufacturing facilities Conclusion A regulator’s role is to determine whether firms are operating in sustainable compliance with GMP for APIs, pursuant to ICH Q7.Bearing in mind that inspections are limited by time and other resource constraints, regulators rely heavily on manufacturers to implement and maintain appropriate quality systems and processes to ensure that all APIs produced meets the required quality standards.Slide52
