Multiple Level C IVIVC

IVIVC guidance: If such a multiple Level C correlation is achievable, then
the development of a Level A correlation is likely
Is this statement always true? Is it accurate for IR products? And is the
Level A model always needed?

• Level A model obtained for NUA using a correlation between dissolution in vitro fit parameter (Makoid-BanakarTMAX) and in vivo absorption parameter (Hill function Finfand MDT)

Question: IVIVC study focused on tablet hardness. How about other CQAs (eg. crystallinity)?

• Multiple Level C IVIVCs
– may be more readily established than Level A models for complex PK and for IR formulations
– have been successfully used to project bioequivalence outcomes
– can be used to set clinically relevant specifications by estimating the bioequivalent dissolution space
• Especially for IR products, information gained from a Multiple Level C vs. a Level A model may not be that different
– Especially for BCS II compounds, dissolution variability impact, if any, may be just on Cmax rather than AUC
• Additional modeling tools can be used to supplement the IVIVC model as needed (e.g. to assess impact of a CQA not included in the IVIVC study).
