VALIDATION 4U PROCESS
Validation 4u Introduction.
Before commencing a validation 4u task; an experimental runs must be planned.
These runs must establish the exact parameters that your validation run is going to use and or attain in the final qualification runs of the system under qualification.
Most validation efforts require some degree of prospective experimentation to generate and establish validation support data. This particular type of process validation 4u is normally carried out in connection with the introduction of a new drug or medical device and or their manufacturing processes. The formalized process validation program should never be under taken unless and until the following operations and procedures have been completed satisfactorily:
- The facilities and equipment in which the process validation is to be conducted meet CGMP requirements (completion of DQ, IQ, OQ and PQ).
- The operators and supervising personnel who will be “running” the validation batch (es) have a comprehensive understanding of the process and its requirements.
- The design, selection, and optimization of the formula have been completed.
- The validation 4u trials using an agreed size of pilot-laboratory batches have been completed, in which the critical processing steps and process variables have been identified, and the provisional operational control limits for each critical test parameter have been provided
- Detailed technical information on the product and the manufacturing process have been provided, including documented evidence of product stability.
- Finally, at least one validation4u trial of a significantly larger production batch has been made and shows up; on scale-up, that there were no significant deviations from the expected performance of the process.
Plan to use Validation 4u Retrospectively.
The retrospective validation 4u option is chosen for established products whose manufacturing processes are considered stable and when on the basis of economic considerations alone and resource limitations, prospective validation programs cannot be justified.
Prior to undertaking retrospective validation 4u, wherein the numerical in-process and/or end-product test data of historic production batches are subjected to statistical analysis, the equipment, facilities and subsystems used in connection with the manufacturing process must be qualified in conformance with CGMP requirements.
The concept is also recognized in the FDA’s Guidelines on General Principles of Process Validation 4u Using either data-based computer systems [28,29] or manual methods, retrospective validation 4u may be conducted in the following manner:
- Gather the numerical data from the completed batch record and include assay values, end-product test results, and in-process data.
- Organize these data in a chronological sequence according to batch manufacturing data, using a spreadsheet format.
- Include data from at least the last 20–30 manufactured batches for analysis. If the number of batches is less than 20, then include all manufactured batches and commit to obtain the required number for analysis.
- Trim the data by eliminating test results from noncritical processing steps and delete all gratuitous numerical information.
- Subject the resultant data to statistical analysis and evaluation.
- Draw conclusions as to the state of control of the manufacturing pro- cess based on the analysis of retrospective validation 4u data.
- Issue a report of your findings (documented evidence).
Validation Risk Assessment (Issue 11) $125.00
Risk Mitigation in Validation template (Issue 11) $125.00 The Risk and Part 11 Validation Risk Assessment(VRA) protocol is becoming the most important document in the validation online train. The VRA reassures the regulators that you have looked at specific equipment functionality and considered the appropriate level of validation that is required. You have also considered various aspects of its use and the implications of any malfunctions. From the results of this exercise the scope of all validation activity can and must be justified. This is a robust and simple to execute document, one that will lead you through the process and deliver a result that can be used as the foundation for your Risk Mitigation in Validation template.
This VRA now includes the assessment table for categorizing and documenting the new 21 CFR Part 11 guidance ruling on what predicate data must be stored in a Part compliant system, along with the new broadsheet to establish your new database of part 11 records. (now mandatory).
Combined IQ-OQ-PQ Computer (Issue-4) $159.00
This Pharmaceutical Validation combination protocol has been produced in response to several hundred reader suggestions we received in our ‘Suggestions Section’. It has been carefully designed to make it the preferred choice for Process and Laboratory stand alone equipment and associated standard operating procedure TEMPLATE. The associated medical device validation Master Plan template is interactive, easy to use and suitable for all mixes of equipment with and without software. Where temperature mapping is required it will included in this section. This of course may well be a Risk Mitigation in Validation risk Assessment template. As per 21 CFR Part 11.
The Installation Qualification Template or IQ section establishes documented verification that all medical device validation template online executables are catered for and that key aspects of the equipment Qualification adhere to approved design Qualification template and the recommendations of the manufacturer have been suitably considered. The Operational Qualification Template section establishes that there is documented verification that the installed system functions as specified and that there is sufficient documented process validation A executables to demonstrate this. The PQ section develops documented evidence that all the requirements specified in your corporate validation 4U manual have been verified as operating consistently and exactly as specified in the medical device validation template; The User Requirements Specification template
Installation Qualification. SOP & Protocol (Issue 9.) $115.00 10000020
The Standard Operating Procedure template (SOP) used to generate this installation Qualification template (IQ), takes you through the process line by line, chapter by chapter. It really is unique to find a SOP document so easy to use, all the work is done for you. All the documents are detailed, all the drawings listed and all the checks and tests detailed. The final product is a professional and comprehensive Installation Qualification template. One that you can produce in less than 60 minutes. Yes, think about it, we all know how long producing IQ documents has taken in the past, whether for current Good Manufacturing Practice use medical device use or a simple installation qualification template.
Operational Qualification, SOP & Protocol (Issue 10.) $115.00
You will find this validation online intuitive Operational Qualification template (OQ) delightfully simple and straightforward to use, as it takes you through the process of customization of your Operational Qualification Protocol template. Following the attached SOP will quickly and smoothly convert your template into an equipment specific 21 CFR Part 11 compliant Installation Qualification Template. The OQ template comes complete with all the standard test scripts, more specialist test scripts can be found listed below. These can easily be pasted into the standard OQ, allowing you to quickly build your own fully detailed and referenced company bespoke Operational Qualification Protocol, along with the installation qualification template.
User Requirements Specification Template
$115.00
The User Requirements Specification template is the document that sets the standard, and specifies your requirements in a manner that ensures when a system or piece of equipment is selected for cGMP use that all essential support elements; i.e. maintenance, parts, operator & maintenance training, are planned and budgeted for. It uses three levels of User Requirements Specification Template (URS), URS Level 1, 2 and 3, and is the only URS to guarantee traceability from the URS through to the final OQ and PQ functionality testing. A requirement mandated by cGMP regulations. It can be used on mechanical, electrical and software controlled, monitored or driven systems.
