Process Analytics Platform for Actionable Information
Guidance for Industry PAT — A Framework for Innovative Pharmaceutical Development, Manufacturing, and Quality Assurance • Encourages the right approach … measurement, data integration, statistical modelling & process understanding based on data. • Companies able to demonstrate process understanding will be treated differently, e.g. be allowed to change processes without revalidation if have data and models to backup decisions. • Essentially companies able to show they are doing the right things will have relaxed regulation regarding CMC (Chemistry and Manufacturing Controls). • http://www.fda.gov/cder/guidance/6419fnl.pdf
PAT Tools From FDA Guidance • Multivariate tools for design, data acquisition and analysis • Process Analysers (at-line, on-line, in-line measurement tools) • Process Control Tools • Continuous Improvement and Knowledge Management Tools

Mapping of data analysis technology to process capability and dependence on extent and relevance of measured inputs:
Case Study 1: Mature Manufacturing with Few Measured Inputs • Established tablet product manufactured at several doses. • Prior measurement systems based on storing finished material while offline QA tests performed to assure the finished product meets the performance specification. • Historically, 16% of production batches fail to meet the 60-minute dissolution requirement of NLT 70%. QA investigations into lot failures rarely found an assignable cause. • Team tasked with investigating process and dramatically improving sigma capability. • Data-sparse situation typical of mature manufacturing; focused on the process for tablets at single concentration. • Deployed effectiveness modeling techniques to cost effectively increase process understanding: • Process Mapping to identify key metrics/variables • Retrospective data collection around key variables • Visual Exploratory Data Mining • Decision Trees • Identified and verified interim solution to increase sigma capability from 2.3 sigma to 3.1 sigma with a predicted defect rate of 5%. • Ongoing DOE investigations at reduced scale focused on generating understanding required to gain further reductions in defects.
Key processes and inputs associated with excessive variation in 60-minute dissolution Recursive Partitioning Decision Tree Mature Manufacturing with Few Measured Inputs
Case Study 2: New Production Facility with Many Measured Inputs • Inhaler product been in commercial production for a couple of years. • Extensive inline measurement systems designed into the facility. • Data-rich environment of 520 measured inputs. • V1 to V30 processing parameters of milling, blending and packaging • V31 to V100 properties of material 1 • V101 to V170 properties of material 2 • V171 to V520 properties of material 3. • The key performance metric is percentage of a given dose reaching stage 3-4 of a cascade impactor test, which must be between 15% and 25%. • Prior to application of Pragmatic PAT, 240 commercial batches were manufactured, approximately 14% of which failed to meet the performance requirement of the cascade impactor test. QA investigations rarely found assignable cause. • Deployed effectiveness and efficiency modeling techniques to increase process understanding: • Decision Trees • PLS • DOE • Variation in four key process variables responsible for batch failures. • DOE used to specify new controls on the four process inputs. • Result is increase in capability to 4.8 sigma with a predicted batch reject rate of 0.1%.
