One of the frequently cited FDA inspectional observations for finished pharmaceuticals includes violations of Current Good Manufacturing Practice. CGMP refers to the Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations enforced by the FDA. CGMPs provide for systems that assure proper design, monitoring, and control of manufacturing processes and facilities.
Adherence to the CGMP regulations assures the identity, strength, quality, and purity of drug products by requiring that manufacturers of medications adequately control manufacturing operations. This includes establishing strong quality management systems, obtaining appropriate quality raw materials, establishing robust operating procedures, detecting and investigating product quality deviations, and maintaining reliable testing labor…
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the UK Medicines and Healthcare Regulatory Agency (MHRA) both publish Out of Specification Investigation Guidance documents for the pharmaceutical industry. Both regulatory bodies' guidances specify investigation processes that are virtually the same, with only minor changes that do not have a significant impact on the common approach being pushed. Following the procedures outlined in either is considered to be compliant with both, though it is helpful to be aware of the minor distinctions.
The investigation approach should be the same for analytical results that are OOS, or indeed for any result that is outside the regular pattern of results, according to both US and UK regulations (often referred to as atypical results). It is critical…
