USP<1058> Analytical Instrument QualificationIn this session we will discuss the “revised” USP chapter <1058> Analytical Instrument Qualification which became effective August 2017 in USP 40 First Supplement.

Although the bulk of the AIQ chapter remains unchanged we will review some of the expanded components in terms of processes, phases and risk management.

We will also discuss a re-definition of instrument performance qualification relative to its life cycle and its impact on the dissolution apparatus in the GMP laboratory.

The Dissolution Environment

In vitro dissolution data will be of great importance when assessing changes in production site, manufacturing process, or formulation, and assist in decisions concerning the need for bioavailability studies.

The proper qualification of the apparatus is critical to accurate and precise evaluation of dosage form performance

Page 22: 02 November, 2017 Moderated by Bryan Crist Agilent ... · the cause must be investigated and documented ... that the system is still under control. ... according to a written procedure

An Overview of the Dissolution Performance TestThe dissolution apparatus allows the testing of six dosage forms. Each position has:

An inert hemispheric vessel

A dissolution solvent (medium)

A rotating spindle which provides the hydrodynamic flow of the solvent across the surface of the dosage form

The dissolution apparatus must maintain these three components in terms of alignment, stability and isolation from the environment

Page 23: 02 November, 2017 Moderated by Bryan Crist Agilent ... · the cause must be investigated and documented ... that the system is still under control. ... according to a written procedure

Background of Performance QualificationUSP Performance Verification Test (PVT)

In existence since 1978

As of March 1st, 2010, a new set of acceptance criteria based on both geometric mean and %CV was adopted. The current lot is now lot R05990.

In addition to the changes in acceptance criteria, some minor changes to the dissolution test recommendations have occurred

Page 24: 02 November, 2017 Moderated by Bryan Crist Agilent ... · the cause must be investigated and documented ... that the system is still under control. ... according to a written procedure

Background of Performance Qualification

Note, this is not the current USP PVT lot.

Page 25: 02 November, 2017 Moderated by Bryan Crist Agilent ... · the cause must be investigated and documented ... that the system is still under control. ... according to a written procedure

Background of Performance QualificationFDA Concerns with USP PVT Prednisone Tablets:

Perceived variability with PVT Prednisone tablets not suitable for evaluating variability in the apparatus.

6-month qualification interval too long. High risk for failure which leads to Out-of-Specification (OOS) investigations.

Not keeping the apparatus “in tune” may lead to a false sense of security regarding calibration.

Difficulty meeting %CV Acceptance Criteria and values occasionally drift over time. Stability issues?

Page 26: 02 November, 2017 Moderated by Bryan Crist Agilent ... · the cause must be investigated and documented ... that the system is still under control. ... according to a written procedure

USP Performance Verification Test (PVT)Other concerns:

Expense of Tablets and RS. Down time.

When it fails, what was the cause?• Poor vessel quality and condition

• Poor paddle and basket quality and condition

• Vessel retaining systems failing

• Unvalidated deaeration techniques

• Unvalidated automated methods

• Unvalidated filters

• None of the above?

Analytical Instrument QualificationUSP <1058> Analytical Instrument Qualification

Definition of Performance Qualification (PQ):

• Usually based on the instrument’s application and may consist of analyzing known components or standards

• PQ tests may be modular or holistic

• PQ tests should be based on good science and reflect the general intended use of the instrument

• When an instrument fails to meet PQ test specifications, it requires maintenance or repair

Dissolution Mechanical Qualification Guidance

The Use of Mechanical Calibration of Dissolution Apparatus 1 and 2 – Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP)

FDA – Guidance for Industry January 2010

http://www.fda.gov/downloads/Drugs/GuidanceComplianceRegulatoryInformation/Guidances/ucm070350.pdf

CGMP requires laboratory apparatus be calibrated at suitable intervals in accordance with established written specifications (21 CFR 211.160 (b)(4))

Page 29: 02 November, 2017 Moderated by Bryan Crist Agilent ... · the cause must be investigated and documented ... that the system is still under control. ... according to a written procedure

Dissolution Mechanical Qualification Guidance

The Use of Mechanical Calibration of Dissolution Apparatus 1 and 2 Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP) - Claims:

Enhanced Mechanical Calibration (MC or MQ) of dissolution apparatus may be used as an alternative to the current Apparatus Suitabilityprocedure for Dissolution Apparatus 1 and 2 described in USP <711>

The MC procedure should specify the frequency at which each calibration step is performed

Either the USP procedure or an appropriate MC method executed according to a written procedure will satisfy the CGMP requirement for calibration of the laboratory apparatus…

Regardless of which procedure is used, appropriate measures must be taken to control the following sources of significant variability in dissolution testing: dissolved gases, vibration, and vessel dimensions.

The 5 Steps for Implementation of Enhanced Mechanical Qualification of the Dissolution Apparatus

1. Check vessel, basket and paddle dimensions on receipt or obtain COC

2. Perform maintenance procedures recommended by manufacturer

3. Perform mechanical qualification: At documented intervals (6-month, 3-month, 1-month, weekly) based on risk

After apparatus is moved

After apparatus is repaired

4. Perform “Operational Checks” at each time of use

5. FDA requires implementation of laboratory controls for significant sources of vibration affecting dissolution testing• Vessel quality

• Deaeration

• Vibration

Dissolution MQ Standard Requirements#1 Check Dimensions Upon Receipt:

Paddle, Basket/Shaft, and Vessel apparatus components must be verified that they conform with the harmonized standard USP <711> Dissolution (USP, JP, EP)

Individual measurements for each dimension of each component must be documented

Certificates of Conformance (COC) may be obtained from Agilent to document conformance.

Otherwise, measurements must be documented by the end user.
