Risk-based approach in:definition and classification of deficiencies
Risk-based approach in:definition and classification of deficiencies
Deficiencies are descriptions of non-compliance with GMP requirements.
A distinction is made between deficiencies as a result of: -
– a defective system or,– failure to comply with the system.
Deficiencies may be classified as:– Critical Observation – potential risk harm to the user– Major Observation – major deviation from GMP– Minor or Other Observation – departure from good practice
| Slide 11 of 43 29 - 30 March 2010, Beijing, China
WHO GMP and API Inspections
Further considerations for classificationFurther considerations for classification
1. Classification of an observation is based on the assessed risk level and may vary depending on the nature of API manufactured, e.g. in some circumstances an example of an "other" deficiency may be categorized as "major".
2. A deficiency that was reported at a previous inspection and not corrected may be reported in a higher classification.
3. One-off minor lapses or less significant issues are usually not formally reported, but are brought to the attention of the manufacturer during the inspection.

Risk-based approach in:Conclusion following an inspection
Risk-based approach in:Conclusion following an inspection
When there are "other" observations only:– considered to be operating at an acceptable level of compliance with WHO
GMP/ICHQ7.– The manufacturer is expected to provide CAPAs.– CAPAs are evaluation and followed up during the next routine inspection.
When the are "other" and a few "major" observations:– compliance with WHO GMP/ICHQ7 is made after the CAPAs have been assessed.– CAPAs for majors to include documented evidence of completion.– CAPAs paper evaluated ± an on-site follow up inspection.
When there are "critical" or several "major" observations:– considered to be operating at an unacceptable level of compliance with WHO
GMP/ICHQ7 guidelines.– Another inspection will be required

Transparency: Information put in public domain - WHOPIRs and NOCs
Transparency: Information put in public domain - WHOPIRs and NOCs
These are published in response to the WHA Resolution WHA57.14 of 22 May 2004, which requested WHO, among other actions:
– "3. (4) to ensure that the prequalification review process and the results of inspection and assessment reports of the listed products, aside from proprietary and confidential information, are made publicly available;"
A WHO Public Inspection Report (WHOPIR) reflects a positive outcome after an inspection
A Notice of Concern (NOC) is a letter reflecting areas of concern where the non-compliances require urgent attention and corrective action by the manufacturer or research organization.

Prequalification Programme: Use of Inspection reports from other NMRAsPrequalification Programme: Use of
Inspection reports from other NMRAs An inspection by the PQP may be omitted when other acceptable evidence of
GMP compliance (Report + CAPAs) is provided by the FPP or API manufacturer.
An inspection by another acceptable organization, such as a PIC/S member country, or US FDA or EU, may be considered in lieu of a PQP inspection when:
– The inspection was conducted within the last 2 years, and The scope of the inspection covered the specific API in question, and The FPP or API manufacturer submits a copy of the last inspection report for
review by the PQP. (During the review, the inspectors will determine whether the inspection was comprehensive, covered the relevant areas appropriate to the product in question and that the inspection report supports the final outcome in accordance with WHO GMP).
– Irrespective of the above, the PQP reserves the right to inspect any API manufacturer if considered necessary (specific product issues).
Whether inspected by the PQP or GMP compliance is based on an inspection by another acceptable organization, on-going GMP compliance will be confirmed by WHO (also using update information from other NMRAs).

WHO GMP for APIs / ICH Q7Key definitions:
WHO GMP for APIs / ICH Q7Key definitions:
ICH Q7A– API starting material (API SM): a raw material, intermediate or
an API used in the production of an API and incorporated as a significant structural fragment into the structure of the API. API SM can be an article of commerce, a material purchased from one or more suppliers under contract or commercial agreement, or produced in-house. API SM are normally of defined chemical properties and structure.
– Intermediate: A material produced during steps of the processing of an API that undergoes further molecular change or purification before it becomes an API.
| Slide 20 of 43 29 - 30 March 2010, Beijing, China
WHO GMP and API Inspections
From what point does ICHQ7A start to be applied ?
– “ICH Q7A applies from the point at which production of the API begins”.
– Some indications are provided in Table 1 of ICH Q7A.• For synthetic process, this corresponds to the
introduction of the API starting material into the process;
• For other processes, on a case by case basis.

Application of ICHQ7 Application of ICHQ7
Companies should decide at which point ICH Q7A applies for their processes and should have documentation to support it. GMP applies from the declared and approved (API) SM in the registered file.
Stringency of GMP in API manufacturing increases from early steps to final steps
Advanced intermediates and crude APIs outsourced should be manufactured in compliance with GMP
– This means that these “late intermediate and crude API” manufacturers should be considered as contract manufacturers (Q7A chapter 16 applicable).
Sterilisation and aspetic processing should be performed according to GMP related to Sterile pharmaceutical products.

Q7A does not apply to :– vaccines, whole cells, whole blood and plasma– blood and plasma derivatives (plasma fractionation)
– gene therapy APIs– bulk-packaged medicinal products– medical gases and manufacturing/control aspects specific to
radiopharmaceuticals.
Q7A does not cover :– Safety aspects for the personnel engaged in the manufacture – and environmental issues.

Summary and ConclusionsSummary and Conclusions Inspection of API sites is part of the WHO-PQ procedures
International norms and standards are used during WHO-PQ inspections
Risk management principles are applied when:– scheduling inspections– conducting inspections– closing out inspections
Inspections of API sites has increased over time. Most of the API sites inspected by WHO-PQ are in India and China
Deficiencies have been observed mainly in:– Material management, SOPs, Cleaning, Batch records, Labelling,
Cross contamination
Most deficiencies have been observed on sites for TB and Malaria APIs.
