2014年,FDA检查了IPCA三个印度工厂,近期FDA发布了对其警告信。以下为节选翻译。
A. Ratlam facility (FEI: 3002807297)第一个工厂(FEI号3002807297) 1. Failure to have computerized systems with sufficient controls to prevent unauthorized access or changes to data. 计算机化系统没有充分的控制来防止未经授权的进入或数据更改 During the inspection, FDA investigators discovered a lack of basic laboratory controls to prevent changes to your firm’s electronically stored data. Your firm relied on incomplete records to evaluate the quality of your drugs and to determine whether your drugs conformed with established specifications and standards. 在检查期间,FDA调查员发现缺乏基本的化验室控制来防止你公司电子存贮数据被更改。你公司依赖于不完整的记录来评估你们药品的质量,决定你们的药品是否符合既有质量标准。 Our investigators found that your firm routinely re-tested samples without justification, and deleted analytical data. We observed systemic data manipulation across your facility, including actions taken by multiple analysts, on multiple pieces of testing equipment, and for multiple drugs. You are responsible for determining the causes of these deviations, for preventing recurrence, and for preventing other deviations from CGMP. 我们的调查员发现你公司常规性复测样品,而没有论证,并删除分析数据。我们在你们整个工厂均观察到系统性的数据做假,包括多个化验员在多个检测设备上对多个药品数据进行篡改。你们有责任找到这些偏差的原因,防止这些偏差的重复发生,防止其它CGMP偏差的发生。 During the inspection, our investigators examined the computerized instrumentation and systems you used to conduct chromatographic analyses of your drugs and found that laboratory analysts had PC administrator access that they utilized to manipulate raw data and test results. We found that controls on your computerized chromatographic instrumentation were not adequate to prevent analysts from manipulating processing parameters in order to obtain passing results. We also found that your computerized systems lacked controls to prevent the back-dating of test data. 在检查中,我们调查员检查了你们用来对你们药品进行色谱分析的计算机化仪器和系统,发现化验员具有PC管理权限,他们可以篡改原始数据和检测结果。我们发现你们对计算机化色谱仪器的控制不够充分,不能防止化验员篡改处理参数来获取合格结果。我们还发现你们的计算机化系统缺乏控制,不能防止将测试数据的日期倒签。 For example, we reviewed the (b)(4) API 12-month (b)(4) Commercial Stability assay test for residual solvent by gas chromatography (GC). For batch #(b)(4) US-DMF ((b)(4)), you reported an (b)(4)% result for (b)(4) residual solvent (specification (b)(4)-(b)(4)%) obtained on July 18, 2013. 例如,我们审核了某个原料药第12个月的商业批稳定性测试中气相残留溶剂测试。某批为US-DMF批,你们报告残留溶剂结果为XXX,是在2013年7月18日获得的。 We documented that the original peak had been integrated inconsistently. Standards and samples had been processed using different integration parameters with no documented reason; there were no controls in the software to prevent analysts from manipulating integration settings in order to obtain passing results that you relied on to evaluate the quality of this product. When our investigator asked you to reprocess the chromatograms using appropriate integration parameters, an out-of-specification (OOS) value of (b)(4)% was obtained. 我们记录了积分不一致的原始峰:标准和样品使用了不同的积分参数,并没有记录下原因。这里对软件没有控制,不能防止分析员篡改积分设定来获取合格的结果,而这些结果正是你们赖以评估此药品质量的数据。当我们的调查员要求你们对色谱数据使用适当的积分参数重新处理时,得到的是一个不合格(OOS)结果,计算值为XX%。 In the (b)(4) stability interval assay test of the same API, batch #(b)(4) US-DMF ((b)(4)), you reported an (b)(4)% result for (b)(4) residual solvent (specification: (b)(4)-(b)(4)%) obtained on June 12, 2013. We again found that the original sample peaks had been re-reintegrated inconsistently. There were no controls in the software to prevent the inappropriate manipulation of integration parameters. When our investigator asked you to reprocess the chromatograms using appropriate integration parameters, the result was an OOS value of (b)(4)%. 在XX稳定性时间点,相同原料药的测试中,批号XX的US-DMF规格,你们报告2013年6月12日获得的残留溶剂结果为XX%(质量标准为YY%)。我们再次发现原始样品峰被重新积分,积分参数不同。这里对软件没有控制,无法防止对积分参数的不当修改。当我们的调查员要求你们使用适当的积分参数重新处理色谱图时,结果为ZZ%,是OOS结果。 For the same test, we found that on and after June 18, 2013, the date and time of the chromatographic injections for the (b)(4) stability test appear to have been set back to June 12, 2013. The data was reprocessed to obtain a passing result, upon which you relied to evaluate the quality of this drug. 相同检测中,我们发现在2013年6月18日及之后,XX稳定性测试显示色谱图进样时间被调至2013年6月12日。数据被重新处理以获得合格结果,而你们依赖此结果来评估此药品的质量。 In addition to these examples of computerized systems that permitted inappropriate manipulation of integration parameters and backdating, our investigators also found several instances of computerized data systems that failed to prevent the deletion of original injections. For example, our investigators reviewed the GC audit trail for(b)(4) (finished API batch #(b)(4)) and found that the original sample injection for related substance was on June 4, 2013 at (b)(4). This injection was aborted with no justification and the computerized system that your laboratory used to capture raw data did not retain the original results. The sample was re-injected at (b)(4)., which automatically deleted the original sample result. Passing results from the re-injection were reported for individual and total impurities. You used these incomplete results to evaluate the quality of this drug. 除了这些计算机化系统允许不当的积分参数修订和修改日期的例子外,我们的调查员还发现几个计算机化数据系统未能防止原始进样数据被删除的例子。例如,我们的调查员审核GC审计追踪时(原料药XX批号YY),发现有关物质原始进样时间为2013年6月4日。此进样被中断,并无任何论述,你们化验室用来捕获原始数据的计算机化系统并未保留原始结果。样品在XX重新进样,它自动删除了原始样品结果。根据重新进样所获得的合格结果报告了单杂和总杂。你们使用这些不完整的结果来评估此药品的质量。 The High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) audit trail for (b)(4) (finished API batch #(b)(4)) shows that the first sample injection for aliquot #2 assay test was on May 28, 2013 at (b)(4). This injection result was deleted without justification. The sample was re-injected at (b)(4). A passing assay result was reported from the re-injection. As with the GC system discussed above, the electronic system your laboratory used to capture HPLC results lacked sufficient controls to prevent the deletion of data without justification, and failed to retain the original data. You relied on these incomplete results to evaluate the quality of this drug. HPLC审计追踪(XX原料药成品批次YY)显示第2次含量测试首次进样是在2013年5月28日。此次进样结果被删除,没有任何论证。样品被重新进样。重新进样所获得的合格结果被报告。与上述对GC系统的讨论相同,你们化验室用来捕获HPLC结果的电子系统缺乏充分的控制,不能防止没有论证前提下对数据的删除,并且还未能保留原始数据。你们依赖这些不完整的结果来评估此药品的质量。 These practices appear to be commonplace in your analytical laboratory. During the inspection, our investigators spoke with an analyst who reported that “…if we find a failure, we set back the date/time setting and re-integrate to achieve passing results…” The analyst explained that deleting, overwriting, changing integration parameters, and altering PC date and time settings were done for raw materials, in-process testing, and finished API drugs. 这些做法似乎在你们分析化验室里很常见。在检查中,我们的调查员与一位化验员谈话,这位化验员说“……如果我们发现检验不合格,我们就把日期/时间改回去,重新积分,获得合格结果……”。分析解释说,删除、覆盖、改变积分参数、改动电脑日期和时间设定的有原料、中控测试和成品原料药测试。 In your response you stated that the stand-alone chromatographic instruments in the Quality Control and Stability laboratories are no longer under full control of individual analysts and have been connected to a network-based laboratory system. You also acknowledged that you did not identify all instances of data manipulation that may have led to inaccurate conclusions regarding product quality. However, your response still lacks a comprehensive assessment and retrospective review of data generated from all of your computerized laboratory systems. This includes but is not limited to a risk assessment that evaluates all potentially-affected test data. 在你们回复中,你们声称化验员现在不能再全面控制化验室里单独的色谱仪器,这些仪器都被接入了网络化验室系统。你们还说你们没有发现可能会导致关于产品质量的不准确结论的任何数据篡改案例。但是,你们的回复仍缺乏全面评估,和对你们所有计算机化实验室系统中生成的数据的回顾性审核。其中包括但不仅限于对所有可能会受到影响的检测数据的风险评估。 2. Failure to adequately investigate and resolve critical deviations. 未能对关键偏差进行充分调查和解决 Our inspection documented that your firm’s quality unit was aware of the lack of controls in your computerized systems to prevent the manipulation and deletion of quality-related data. Your site’s senior management failed to take sufficient corrective action and prevent the recurrence of these problems. For example, an anonymous email dated August 5, 2013 notified your quality management about data falsification and manipulation in your laboratory. This email stated: “…[t]here is no control of data in the department…Falsification is going on…Take action as early as possible..." Although you investigated your GC and HPLC equipment, the multi-part investigation that you opened on August 10, 2013 (CD/RTM/QA/001/2013) was incomplete and did not resolve the underlying problems of data falsification and manipulation. 我们的检查文件记录了你们公司质量部分明白你们的计算机化系统缺乏控制,无法防止质量相关数据的篡改和删除。你们工厂的资深管理未能采取足够的纠正措施,未能预防这些问题的再次发生。例如,一份匿名邮件,日期为2013年8月5日提醒你们关于化验室数据篡改和伪造的质量管理问题。该电子邮件说“……在部门里对数据没有控制……在做假……尽快采取措施……”。尽管你们调查了你们的GC和HPLC仪器,你们在2013年8月10日启动的多部门调查(CD/RTM/QA/001/2013)并不完整,没有解决暗藏的数据伪造和篡改的问题。 Phase I: GC Investigation 第一阶段:GC 调查 Your GC Investigation was limited to review of audit trails for batches analyzed on GCs #052 and #202 between January and August, 2013. Although your investigation found multiple examples of deficient data management and retention practices, you concluded that none of the deviations were considered critical. You also concluded that there was no product or patient risk associated with these deviations. You closed this phase of the investigation on November 27, 2013, without implementing effective corrective actions and preventive actions. 你们的GC调查仅限于对GC#052和#202上从2013年1月至8月分析的批号的审计追踪。尽管你们的调查发现多个缺陷数据管理和保存做法的例子,但你们结论说没有偏差是关键的。你们还得出结论说这些偏差没有产品或患者风险。你们于2013年11月27日半面妆了该调查阶段,没有实施有效的纠正和预防措施。 Our investigator reviewed the same data and audit trail records that you included in your own investigation. In the limited time available during the inspection, our investigator found serious deficiencies and questionable data management practices that your own four-month investigation did not identify, including: 我们的调查者审核了你们自己调查中记录的相同数据和审计追踪记录。在检查有限的时间内,我们的调查员发现严重缺陷和值得质疑的数据管理做法,而你们自己在4个月的调查中都没有发现。其中包括: · altering time and date settings of computerized equipment using the software administrator’s access privilege · 使用软件管理者权限更改计算机化设备的日期和时间设置 · manipulating test integration parameters to obtain passing or desirable results; · 修改测试积分参数来获得合格或想要的结果 · aborting on-going sample analyses · 中断正在进行的样品分析 · over-writing and deleting raw data files containing original results · 覆盖和删除含有原始结果的原始数据文件 When presented with the results of our review of these records during the inspection, your QA manager agreed that that these examples, which you had not documented or addressed in your own investigation, were serious deviations from CGMP. Specifically, the manager concurred that these examples would be categorized as “critical” under your own system for assessing deviations. 在检查中,当我们把我们审核这些记录的结果告诉你们时,你们的QA经理认同这些例子,而这些你们都没有记录,也没有在你们自己的调查中进行说明,这是对CGMP的严重违背。尤其是经理同意这些例子根据你们自己的偏差评估系统应该归为“关键”。
