§212.10 Personnel and Resources: What personnel & resources must I have? • Sufficient personnel with necessary education.. • *Responsibilities & assigned duties clearly identified in written policies • *Small PET drug production—producing 1-2 batches of a PET drug daily or weekly—may employ 2 people for production and quality assurance (QA) • One individual can be designated to perform production and QA (highly qualified person) • Conventional drugs (Part 211) normally require second-person checks at various stages—for small PET drug operation, can perform documented self-checks *Guidance: PET Drugs—CGMP December 2009
§212.20 Quality Assurance: What activities must I perform to ensure drug quality? • Production operations: • ensure that each PET drug meets the requirements of the act (safety, identity & purity) • PET drug meets required quality & purity (b) Materials: examine & approve or reject components…in-process materials…finished dosage forms to ensure compliance with procedures specifications (c) Specifications & processes: approve or reject before implementation..specifications, methods, procedures (d) Production records: review production record to determine whether errors have occurred, investigate and take action (e) Quality assurance: establish & follow written QA procedures
§ 212.30 Facilities and Equipment: What requirements must my facilities & equipment meet? (a) Facilities: adequate to ensure orderly handling, prevention of mix-ups & prevention of contamination (b) Equipment procedures: • Clean • Suitable for intended purpose • Properly installed, maintained & capable of producing valid results • Document activities (c) Equipment: not reactive, additive or absorptive to alter the PET drug
§212.40 Control of Components, Containers & Closures: How must I control components used for PET drug & containers , closures I package them in? • Written procedures • Written specifications • Examination & testing • Establish minimum standards for controlling components containers & closures. • If you conduct finished-product testing which ensures correct components have been used, may rely on COA from suppliers. Need justification why identity testing is not required. • Components be handled and stored to prevent contamination, mix-ups & deterioration • Keep a record of each shipment of components
§ 212.50 Production & Process Controls: What production & process controls must I have? • Written control Procedures: document all key process parameters are controlled & deviations are justified • Master production & control records • Name and strength of PET drug • Name & amount of other active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) • Components • Identification of all major pieces of equipment used • Statement on minimum percentage yield allowed • Batch production & control record created for each new batch
§ 212.60 Laboratory Controls: What requirements apply to laboratories where I test components, in-process materials & finished PET drug products? • Written procedures • Established specifications & standards • Analytic methods, sensitive, specific, accurate & reproducible • Equipment suitable for purpose, and • Complete record of all data e.g. a print-out of the chromatogram with calculated amounts of each component analyzed • Test results and relation to acceptance criteria • Initial or signature of analyst and date performed
§ 212.61 Ensure Stability Through Expiry What must I do to ensure the stability of my PET drug products through expiry? • Establish written stability testing program • Program used to establish storage conditions and expiration time • *Parameters to evaluate: • Radiochemical identity & purity (including levels of radiochemical impurities • Appearance • pH • Stabilizer effectiveness • Chemical purity • * Perform stability testing at highest radioactive concentration • * Withdraw sample from the intended final container/closure *Guidance: PET Drugs—CGMP December 2009
Finished Product Testing *Guidance: PET Drugs—CGMP December 2009 *Noncritical attributes (perform periodic quality indicator test [PQIT]): perform on predetermined interval rather than every batch • Radionuclidic purity • Low-level nontoxic impurities • Class 3 residual solvents
§ 212.70 Finished Product TestingConditional Final Release • If you cannot complete one or required finished-product tests for a batch of PET drug due to malfunction involving analytical equipment, you may approve conditional final release • Determine all acceptance criteria are met • Retain reserve sample • Promptly correct malfunction, & complete omitted test • May not approve if the malfunction involved performance of radiochemical identity/purity
§ 212.71 If PET Drug Does Not Conform to Specifications? • Reject nonconforming product • Investigation • Correction of problem • Reprocessing
§ 212.80 Packaging and Labeling: What are the requirements associated with labeling & packaging PET drug products? • Suitably packaged and labeled to protected from alteration, contamination and damage *1. Label to prevent mix-ups *2 . Due to Radiation exposure : label empty product vial prelabeled ( e.g. product name, batch number, date) *3. Outer shielded container labeled *4. Label identical to the container shield label can be incorporated into the batch production record
§ 212.110 Records: How must I maintain records of my production of PET drugs? • Record availability: maintain at drug production facility or other accessible location to allow inspection by the FDA • Record quality: legible, stored to prevent deterioration, readily available for review & copying by FDA • Record retention period: 1-year from date of final release, or conditional final release
§ 212.70 Finished Drug Product Controls & Acceptance: What controls & acceptance criteria must I have for my finished PET drug products? • Establish specifications for each PET drug • Establish & document Test Procedures accuracy, sensitivity, specificity & reproducibility • PET Drug conforms to specifications PET drug batch (sub-batch) may not be released until appropriate laboratory determination is compete (except sterility), is reviewed & approved by appropriate releasing authority • Sterility testing: innoculate within 30 hours post production Can exceed 30-hour requirement due to weekend, by demonstrating that the longer period does not affect the sample *Verification can be accomplished by innoculation of USP organism (e.g. E coli) and demonstrate no loss (little) in viability
