The International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for The International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) is unique in bringing together the regulatory authorities and pharmaceutical industry of Europe, Japan and the US to discuss scientific and technical aspects of drug registration.
Since its inception in 1990, ICH has evolved, through its ICH Global Cooperation Group, to respond to the increasingly global face of drug development, so that the benefits of international harmonization for better global health can be realized worldwide.
ICH's mission is to achieve greater harmonization to ensure that safe, effective, and high quality medicines are developed and registered in the most resource-efficient manner.
69
HISTORY
The Need to Harmonise The realization that it was important to have an independent
evaluation of medicinal products before they are allowed on the market
However in many cases the realization was driven by tragedies, such as that with thalidomide in Europe in the 1960s.
For most countries, whether or not they had initiated product registration controls earlier, the 1960s and 1970s saw a rapid increase in laws, regulations and guidelines for reporting and evaluating the data on safety, quality and efficacy of new medicinal products
70
Initiation of ICH
Harmonization of regulatory requirements was pioneered by the European Community (EC), in the 1980s, as the EC (now the European Union) moved towards the development of a single market for pharmaceuticals
At the same time there were bilateral discussions between Europe, Japan and the US on possibilities for harmonization.
71
It was, however, at the WHO Conference of Drug Regulatory
Authorities (ICDRA), in Paris, in 1989, that specific plans for action
began to materialize.
Soon afterwards, the authorities approached IFPMA to discuss a
joint regulatory-industry initiative on international harmonization, and
ICH was conceived.
The birth of ICH took place at a meeting in April 1990, hosted by
EFPIA in Brussels
72
Objectives
Better consumer information.
Post marketing safety.
New product review.
Keep watch on safe manufacturing and handling.
Monitoring for new risk.
Standardization and regulation.
Enforcement and corrective problem.
73
MissionMission
ICH’s mission is to make recommendations towards achieving
greater harmonization in the interpretation and application of
technical guidelines and requirements for pharmaceutical product
registration, thereby reducing or obviating duplication of testing
carried out during the research and development of new human
medicines.
74
To maintain a forum for a constructive dialogue between
regulatory authorities and the pharmaceutical industry on the real
and perceived differences in the technical requirements for product
registration in the EU, USA and Japan in order to ensure a more
timely introduction of new medicinal products, and their
availability to patients.
MissionMission
75
To contribute to the protection of public health from an international perspective;To monitor and update harmonised technical requirements leading to a greater mutual acceptance of research and development data;To avoid divergent future requirements through harmonization of selected topics needed as a result of therapeutic advances and the development of new technologies for the production of medicinal products;To facilitate the adoption of new or improved technical research and development approaches which update or replace current practices, where these permit a more economical use of human, animal and material resources, without compromising safety;To facilitate the dissemination and communication of information on harmonised guidelines and their use such as to encourage the implementation and integration of common standards.
MissionMission
76
ICH STRUCTURE The ICH is composed of the following components:
Steering Committee,
ICH Secretariat,
Observers,
Expert Working Group (EWG).
77
The ICH receives support from the following organizations:
In the European Union, the European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products (EMEA) and the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries’ Associations (EFPIA) represent both regulatory agencies and industry associations, respectively;
In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) are included; and
In Japan, the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare (MHLW1) and the Japan Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association (JPMA) are the respective organizations.
78
How does ICH work ?
ICH operates through the ICH Steering Committee with administrative support from the ICH Secretariat and ICH Coordinators.
The Steering Committee meets at least twice a year, rotating meeting sites among the three regions.
The topics identified for harmonization by the Steering Committee are selected.
Working Groups also meet during the same week as the Steering Committee meetings and report on their progress to the Committee. Considerable work also occurs between meetings.
79
Current ICH Terms of Reference (2000)
