General Employee HygieneHygiene

All employees working in direct contact with food, food contact surfaces and food packaging must conform to hygienic practices. This protects against food contamination by microorganisms or unwanted material.Prevent contamination

Careless employee practices can cause product contamination. The best way to avoid contamination is to prevent it.

How do we prevent contamination?Any behavior that could result in food contamination such as eating,

use of tobacco, chewing gum or other unhygienic practices, is not allowed in food handling areas

Hygiene and Communicable Diseases• clothing• hair• personal habits• hand washing• personal effects and

jewelry• illness and disease• injuries• visitors• training

Production employees• Bathe daily• No perfume, aftershave, fragrant creams• No jewellery• No false nails or nail polish• Fingernails should be trimmed short• Use metal detectable bandages covered with gloves• No eating, drinking or chewing gum

Clothing• Everyone must wear pants and covered sleeves.

Page 2: Validasi Translate

• Separate shoes (no open toes or high heels) are to be worn in the factory. • Personal belongings and street clothing must be stored in locker rooms.

Illness• Doctor’s certificate on hiring• Inform your supervisor or HR if you are ill with symptoms that could

contaminate ingredients or products• No medication allowed in factory• Ensure that a clean bandage covers any open wounds

Hand washingAll employees must wash their hands thoroughly:• when they enter food handling areas• before starting work• after handling contaminated materials• after breaks• after using toilet facilities

Food Handling PracticesPersonnel• Do not leave gloves, masks, etc. lying around while on break or at

shift end. • Crates, boxes, containers or buckets must not be placed directly on the

floor.• Store brooms and dust pans at stations provided.

Product• Keep hand contact with ingredients to a minimum.• Check ingredients for expiration dates to ensure that fresh ingredients

are used.• Cooling product should always be kept covered.

Equipment, containers and utensils• Ensure that all containers, including those holding rework, are properly

labelled and are kept covered.• Use white or brown containers to store ingredients and rework.• Use gray containers for garbage. Garbage containers must be kept

covered.Cloths Use white cloths to wipe hands regularly and dispose of soiled cloths immediately. No moist cloths are to be left in the production area. Use yellow cloths to clean the floor and objects (e.g. step stools) that come into contact with the floor. Utensils• Scrapers for moulds and tabletops are not to be used on the floor.• Production equipment/utensils must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized

with alcohol after use.Premises• Keep unscreened doors and windows closed.• Report any pests or evidence of pests such as flies, insects, mice

droppings.Equipment• Return tools and attachments to their proper place after use.

Page 3: Validasi Translate

• Check product surfaces before starting equipment. Remove any foreign objects or dirt.

• Replace brushes that lose bristles.Personnel Practices• Do not lean, sit or step on product surfaces.• Do not handle ingredients or products with either cut or infected hands.• Do not engage in horseplay.• Keep hand contact with ingredients and product to a minimum.

Sanitation• Keep contact surfaces clean and free of contamination from tools, cords,

cleaning utensils, machine parts, lubricants and paper.• Clean all spills promptly. • Keep everything off the floor and the area clean and floors swept. • Work areas should be cleaned regularly throughout the shift.• Keep your immediate working area swept or dust mopped. Wipe or mop

up spilled liquids promptly.• Scrape the floor around the work area after completing a job.• Leave your work area clean at the end of your shift.

Receiving and Storage• Ensure that all pallets and materials are kept at least 18” away from the

walls.• Inspect torn bags and boxes and then repair if appropriate.• Brush off bags and boxes before opening them.• Store ingredients and products at the appropriate temperature.• Use ingredients in the proper rotation (oldest stock first)• Handle ingredients or products carefully to avoid spilling• Do not return products or ingredients to the production line after they

have touched the floor or any other surface that is not clean.Maintenance and Repairs• Ensure area is segregated from production by use of tarps.• Do not leave maintenance supplies in the product zone. • Return all tools and attachments to their proper place after use.• Ensure the production area is clear of all tools and hazards before

production startsRetail store• Monitor and maintain proper temperatures• Rotate ingredients using FIFO and check for expired items.• Check best before dates and the quality of the food before using.• Refrigerate cold foods immediately upon receipt.• Sanitize equipment, cutting boards, work surfaces and utensils.• Always wash hands after handling money.

Visitors to Production Areas• Should always be accompanied.• Must be appropriately dressed - hair coverings, booties over street shoes,

gloves, sleeve covers, etc.

Production and Process validationGMP• The good practices outlined are to be considered general guides and they

may be adapted to meet individual needs.GMPare aimed primarily at diminishing the risks inherent in any pharmaceutical production• Cross –contamination; unexpected contaminants• Mix-ups; confusion (false labels)

Good practices in production• Principle: production operations must follow clearly defined procedures

in accordance with manufacturing and marketing authorizations, with the objective of obtaining products of the requisite quality.

Good practices in production:General• All handling of materials and products;

– receipt– cleaning– quarantine– sampling– storage– labelling– dispensing– processing– packaging– distribution

• should be done in accordance with written procedures and recorded.

Good practices in production:General• Any deviation from instructions or procedures should be avoid as far as

possible.– If deviations occur: should be done in accordance with an

approved procedure– approved in writing by a designated person

• Checks on yields and reconciliation of quantities to ensure that there are no discrepancies outside acceptable limits.

• Operation on different products should not be carried out simultaneously or consecutively in the same room or area unless there is no risk of mix-up or cross-contamination.

• At all time during processing– all materials– bulk containers– major items of equipment– rooms – packaging lines

• being used should be labeled or identified• Access to production premises should be restricted to authorized

personnel.

Page 5: Validasi Translate

• Non-medicinal products should not be produced in areas or with equipment destined for the production of pharmaceutical products.

• In-process controls are usually performed within the production area.– The performance should not have any negative effect on the

quality of the product or another product.

Good practices in production: Prevention of cross-contamination during production

When dry materials and products are used in production, special precaution should be taken to prevent the generation and dissemination of dust.– proper air control e.g. supply and extraction of air of suitable

quality

Contamination of a starting material or of a product by another material or product must be avoid.– accidental cross-contamination arises from

uncontrolled release of dust, gases, particles, vapours. sprays or organisms from materials and products in process

residues on equipment intruding insects operators’ clothing, skin, etc.

– most hazardous, highly sensitizing materials living organisms, hormones, cytotoxic substances, and

others Avoided by taking appropriate technical e.g.

– carrying out production in dedicated and self-contained areas– conducting campaign production followed by appropriate cleaning

in accordance with a validated cleaning procedure– providing appropriately designed airlocks, pressure differentials

and air supply and extraction systems minimizing the risk of contamination caused by recirculation or re-entry

of untreated or insufficiently treated air wearing protective clothing using cleaning and decontamination procedures of known effectiveness using a closed system in production testing for residues using cleanliness status labels on equipment Measures to prevent cross-contamination and their effectiveness should

be checked periodically according to SOP Production areas periodic

environmental monitoring

Good practices in production: Processing operations Before any processing operation

work area and equipment • clean and free from any starting materials, products,

product residues, labels or documents not required for the current operation

Any necessary in-process controls and environmental controls should be carried out and recorded

Indicate the failures of equipment or services (e.g. water, gas) to equipment

defective EQ withdrawn after use, production EQ

not present any hazard to the quality of the products

GMP for biological products :Production• SOP for manufacturing operations: available, up date• Starting material: source, origin, method of manufacture, QC• Media and culture shall be added to fermenter and other vessels under

carefully controlled conditions, avoid contamination• Media should be sterilized in situ. In line sterilizing filters for routine

addition of gases, media, acids, alkalis, deforming agents, etc. to fermenter should be used where possible.

• Validation of sterilization.• Inactivation process: measures should be taken to avoid risk of cross-

contamination between treated and untreated products.• A wide equipment used for chromatography

• should be dedicated to purification of one product• should be sterilized or sanitized between batches• define the life span of columns and the sterilization method

Page 7: Validasi Translate

• In-process controls play a specially important role in ensuring the consistent quality of biological products because certain deficiencies may not be revealed by testing the finished product.• Tests that are crucial for quality control but that cannot be carried

out on the finished product shall be performed at an appropriate stage of production.

• Samples of intermediate and final products shall be retained in sufficient amount and under appropriate storage conditions to allow the repetition or confirmation of a batch control.

• Certain operations require the continuous monitoring of data during a production process e.g.monitoring and recording of physical parameters during fermentation.

Validation: Definition Validation is the documented act of proving that any procedure, process,

equipment, material,activity or system actually leads to the expected result.

Validation studies analytical test equipment facility systems (air, water, steam, process; manufacturing processes,

cleaning, sterilization, sterile filling, lyophilization) Separate validation for lyophilizer/ lyophilization process cleaning of glassware/ cleaning

of facility sterilization process/ sterility test verify the system under test under the extremes expected during the

process to prove that the system remains in control. Critical equipment and processes are routinely revalidated at appropriate

intervals to demonstrate that the process remains in control.

Type of validation Prospective

• pre-planned protocol Concurrent

• base on data collected during actual performance of a process already implemented in a manufacturing facility

• suit manufacturers of long standing, have well-controlled manufacturing process

Retrospective • for production for a long time, but has not been validated

according to a prospective protocol and concurrent validation is not realistic option

• is not generally accepted Laboratory-and pilot-scale validations

• some production processes cannot be carried out in production facility

A copy of the letter may be found in:

Certificate of analysis for one batch of each excipient from the approved supplier should be provided.

3.9.1 Specifications for the FPP Justification of the specifications (e.g., evolution of tests, analytical

procedures, and acceptance criteria, exclusion of certain tests, differences from compendial standard):

Acceptance criteria for degradants in FDC-FPPs should be established with reference to the API they are derived from. If an impurity results from a chemical reaction between two or more APIs, then its acceptance limits should be calculated with reference to the worst case (API with the

Page 14: Validasi Translate

smallest area under the curve). Alternatively, the content of such impurities could be calculated in relation to their reference standards.

Dissolution testing specifications should include all active components of the finished dosage form and utilize relevant media.

Validation of analytical procedures: State if in accordance with ICH or not, and mention any deviations. (All control methods, regardless of whether they are applicable to control at release or to the shelf life should be discussed here).

Results of not less than three (3) batch analyses (including the date of manufacture, place of manufacture, batch size and use of batch tested) must be presented. The batch analysis must include the results obtained for all specifications at release.

Batch analysis results (n=?); do these confirm consistency and uniformity of the product? Do they indicate that the process is under control?

3.10 Container/closure system(s) and other packaging Description of the container closure systems, including unit count or fill

size, container size or volume: Materials of construction of each primary packaging component: Summary of specifications of each primary and functional secondary (e.g.,

foil pouches) packaging components: Identification of the material generally by infrared absorption

spectrophotometry, with indication of the position of characteristic absorption bands. The infrared spectrum of the reference material should be provided: other methods of identification may be appropriate.

Identification of the main additives in particular those which are likely to migrate into the contents (such as antioxidants, plasticisers, catalysts, initiators, etc.... and, for PVC, phthalates, adipates and organic tin compounds).

Identification of dyes by using chromatographic or any other appropriate method.

3.11 Stability testing The design of the formal stability studies for the finished product should

be based on knowledge of the behavior and properties of the API and the dosage form.

Stability studies should include testing of those attributes of the FPP that are susceptible to change during storage and are likely to influence quality, safety and/or efficacy.

It may be appropriate to have justifiable differences between the shelf life and release acceptance criteria based on the stability evaluation and the changes observed on storage.

Report and discuss the results of stability testing as described in Annex 2. Organize data for all attributes separately and evaluate each attribute in the report.

Shelf life acceptance criteria should be derived from consideration of all available stability information.

Long-term studies should cover the whole shelf life. When available long-term stability data on primary batches do not cover the proposed shelf-life period granted at the time of approval, a commitment should be made in writing to continue the stability studies post approval. The post-

Page 15: Validasi Translate

approval stability protocol should also be provided and should be the same as that for the primary batches, unless otherwise scientifically justified.

Letter of commitmentWe, <name of applicant> undertake to continue long-term stability testing of <name of FPP> (batch numbers …….., ………. and ……………………) according to the stability protocol of primary batches, for a period of time sufficient to cover the whole pre-qualified shelf life (NLT 24 months ending ………………….) and to report any out-of-specification results immediately to WHO.

3.11.3 Selection of Batches At the time of submission data from stability studies should be provided

for batches of the same formulation and dosage form in the container closure system proposed for marketing.

Stability data on three primary batches are to be provided. One of the three batches should be of production scale, the remaining two batches at least pilot scale. The composition, batch size, batch number and manufacturing date of each of the stability batches should be documented and the certificate of analysis at batch release should be attached.

Change control Guidance on variations to a prequalified dossier. Conditions and requirements for 40 minor changes are detailed. Typical

examples: Change of API manufacturer Change of manufacturing site Change of batch size

Guideline on stability testing for applications for variations to a prequalified FPP (draft).

Current regulatory developments Pharmaceutical manufacturing operations are inefficient and costly. Low efficiency is predominantly due to "self-imposed" constraints in the

system (e.g., static manufacturing processes, focus on testing as opposed to quality by design).

ICH guidance Q9 (draft) describes the level of risk-mitigation achieved through quality by design and process understanding.

Manufacturing processes of innovator and generic manufacturers are fundamentally the same.

Efforts are primarily directed towards reducing variability in process and product quality characteristics and are not for changing the fundamental design of a manufacturing process.

Empirical methods are probably approaching their theoretical maximum effectiveness. New scientific understanding and new technologies can provide science- and engineering-based approaches.

Current regulatory developments A process is well understood when:

all critical sources of variability are identified and explained variability is managed by the process product quality attributes can be accurately and reliably predicted

Process understanding inversely proportional to product quality risk. Real time product release is on the regulatory horizon. Main points again The manufacturing process should be clearly defined

(site, composition, batch size, equipment, flow diagram, narrative) and well documented.

APIs, excipients and primary packing materials should be bought only from approved suppliers.

Batch-to-batch consistency of FPP quality should be achieved through validation and annual evaluation of product and process control results.

Main points again The manufacturing process should be clearly defined (site, composition,

batch size, equipment, flow diagram, narrative) and well documented. APIs, excipients and primary packing materials should be bought only

from approved suppliers. Batch-to-batch consistency of FPP quality should be achieved through

validation and annual evaluation of product and process control results. Release specifications have to be reviewed at the end of stability studies

to establish if change of acceptance criteria is justified.

The SmPC and Patients’ leaflet should reflect the design, development and manufacturing information of the submission.

Attributes of prequalified FPPs should only be changed after approval of variation by WHO.
