5. Introduction
Current State of Affairs
Thesis of Critical Path : There has been a Failure of Predictability
INDUSTRY FACTORS
■ Reluctance to innovate / invest in manufacturing sector
compared to R&D.
■ Most processes are fixed with variable materials, resulting
in variable quality of product.
■ Emphasis on getting product out discourages early work
on process and changes after marketing.
PRODUCT FACTORS
■ Increasing trend towards manufacturing-related problems.
■ Low manufacturing process efficiency-cost implications.
■ Excessive amounts of product non-conformances/OOS.
■ Slow innovation, modernization & technologies adoption.
■ Rising trend of recalls 176/1998–354/2002 & Supplements.

6. Introduction
Current State of Affairs
Thesis of Critical Path : There has been a Failure of Predictability
REGULATORY FACTORS
■FDA’s emphasis was on institution of basic
procedures and recordkeeping--evolved to cGMP.
■Empirical quality methodologies are approaching
their theoretical effectiveness.
■High burden on FDA resources.
OVERALL CONCLUSION
“The present state is focused on documentation,
following SOPs validating the process, changing
SOPs meeting specifications, and not changing
the process leading to high risk of drug efficacy
and public health.”

FDA’s PAT Journey
from “Testing Quality in…” to “Building Quality in…”
Pharmaceutical Process Analytical Technology
Process Analytical Technology (PAT) is a
system for designing, analyzing, and
controlling manufacturing processes based
on timely measurements (i.e., during
processing) of critical quality parameters
and performance attributes of raw and in-
process materials and processes to assure
acceptable end product quality at the
completion of the process.

Process Analytical Technology involves
optimal applications of process analytical
chemistry tools, feedback process control
strategies, information management tools,
and /or product /process optimization
strategies to the manufacture of
pharmaceuticals.
Note The term Analytical in PAT is viewed
broadly to include chemical, physical,
microbiological, mathematical, and risk
analysis conducted in an integrated manner.

You Said for Process Analytical Technology
The goal of PAT is to understand and control the
manufacturing process science – Ajaz S. Hussain
<<The quality can not be tested into products;
it should be built-in or should be by design>>

30. QbR
Risk–Based Review
The Major Critical Review Areas
Science is understanding variability and reproducibility
in nature.
Chemometrics / Statistics is making decisions about
nature in the presence of variability.
Experimental Design is reducing and controlling
variability in ways which make statistical theory
applicable to decisions about nature.
Justification of design trials and statistical aspects
should be set out in the protocol.
Confirmatory Trials are necessary to provide firm
evidence of efficacy and safety.
Evaluation of Evidence and decision on approvability.
“Quality can not be assessed, tested or inspected into the
product. It has to be built into it.”
May 27, 2011 30
31. QbR
Risk–Based Review
The Major Critical Review Chapters
ICH Q8 – Drug Product Development Report.
M4Q eCTD - Drug Product Guidance.
cGMP Initiative – Quality by Design, mechanistic
understanding (Formulation, Polymorphism, and
Product Performance). Process Development Report.
Risk Assessment – SUPAC, In-vitro Performance Test
vs In-vivo QC Dissolution and Product’s Identity,
Stability, Strength, Purity and Quality, etc….etc….etc….
1. Assure product quality through the design and
performance-based specifications. Reduce OOS.
2. Maintain continuous improvement & reduce CMC
Supplements/Amendments through risk assessment.
3. Enhance review quality through review questions.

Formulation Science & Design
Why Design Process Critical to FDA?
Quality by Design paradigm.
Product Development Information Report is
where you demonstrate the drug is highly
variable.
Source of Variability (Mechanistic Understanding).
Drug Substance (common between Generic & RLD),
Formulation (Generic Biostudies could be higher/ lower)
Justify use of Bioequivalence Study design other
than 80-125% confidence interval.
Product development report is where you
justify equivalence of design.

Lawrence Yu, Office of Generic Drugs, FDA, 2004
37. QbR
Formulation Science & Design
Why Design Process Critical to FDA?
Variability in API and inactive ingredient group (IIG).
Formulation design: rapid release.
Demonstrate by dissolution comparison under
physiologically relevant conditions.
Waive if BCS class I.
Confirm with in vivo study.
Variability in the formulation of RLD.
Design for equivalence begins with characterization
of RLD.
Generic product should recognize variability is an
issue and target the mean performance.
Current system: no reward for generic that is less
variable.

Measuring and Development Data
Control of Variability through Intelligent Automation
Protocols are roadmap for required Data Quality.
Identification of all critical steps and variables.
Science-based specification and controls allow focus
on high risk areas to reduce supplements.
Lack of adequate development data suggests –
■ Possibility of unidentified critical steps.
■ Higher risk in post-approval changes.
When “Best Practices” are employed
■ Risk of poor product quality is minimized.
■ Lower risk in post-approval changes will allow
down regulation of reporting category.
May 27, 2011 41
42. Summary
Take Home Points
Establish formulatory material search and
match data base library within organization.
A fundamental scientific premise is that quality
cannot be tested into a product. Rather, quality
must be built into the product throughout the
manufacturing process; one cannot assure
quality by testing for it at the end of the
manufacturing process or at a later point.
Design, evaluate and document preformulation
& formulation development study protocols.
Optimized formulation variables at early stage
of development. (pay now or pay later).
May 27, 2011 42
43. Summary
Take Home Points
Better utilization of modern scientific, technical,
and chemometrics tools for pharmaceutical
product design space at the ground level.
Implement proper physiocharacterization
techniques, In Silico tools, Linear accelerated
temperature range effects on degradation.
Established qualified links between materials,
process, product and application (MPPA).
ICH Q6A – A suitable starting place for the
generic industry and regulators to move from
current state to ICH Q8, Q9, Q10 – desired state.
May 27, 2011 43
44. Summary
Take Home Points
Pharmaceutical Development is a learning
process that describe both success and failures
as a part of the story which demonstrates
Quality by Design (QbD) and Design Space.
Early awareness on science - based review /
question - based review after submission –
development cycles, formulation time,
formulation manufacturing parameters (critical
process parameters), cycle deviation, etc.
Depend more on scientific justification and on
in-process testing, not on end product testing,
when making regulatory decisions.
May 27, 2011 44
45. Thoughts
Technology Replaces Technology
“eCTD Drug Submission is a 1-Step
Synthesis. QbD demands to change from
Current Solution State to Solid State
Technology to minimize Process and Drug
Quality Risk.”
“Majority of current off-line chemical
analytical methodology is equivalent to
narrow range pH test strips.”
