What is Quality by Design?
  • Pharmaceutical Quality by Design (QbD)
  • QbD means designing and developing formulations
    and manufacturing processes to ensure predefined
    product quality
  • Understanding and controlling formulation and
    manufacturing process variables affecting the
    quality of a drug product

3
Question-based Review
  • Question-based Review (QbR) is a general
    framework for a science and risk-based assessment
    of product quality
  • QbR contains the important scientific and
    regulatory review questions to
  • Comprehensively assess critical formulation and
    manufacturing process variables
  • Set regulatory specifications relevant to quality
  • Determine the level of risk associated with the
    manufacture and design of the product

4
Questions Come First Say What You Do and Do What
You Say
  • Questions guide reviewers
  • Prepare a consistent and comprehensive evaluation
    of the ANDA
  • Assess critical formulation manufacturing
    variables
  • Questions guide industry
  • Recognize issues OGD generally considers critical
  • Direct industry toward QbD
  • Questions inform readers of the review
  • How QbD was used in the ANDA
  • Provide the basis for a risk assessment

5
FDAs Pharmaceutical cGMP for the 21st
Century QbD Initiative
Generic Sponsor Implementing QbD in
development and manufacturing
FDA OGD Developed a Question- based Review
System that assesses sponsors QbD ANDAs
6
QbR Questions Embodies QbD
What attributes should the drug product possess?
7
QbR Questions Embodies QbD
How was the product designed to have these
attributes? Were alternative formulations or
mechanisms investigated? How were the excipients
selected? How was the final formulation
optimized?
8
QbR Questions Embodies QbD
Unit operations, control strategy, etc.
Quality by Design
What are the unit operations in the drug product
manufacturing process? Why was the manufacturing
process selected? How are the unit operations
related to the drug product quality?
9
QbR Questions Embodies QbD
How were the critical process parameters
identified, monitored, and controlled? In the
proposed scale up plan what operating parameters
will be adjusted to ensure the product meets all
in-process and final product specifications? What
evidence supports the plan to scale up the
process to commercial scale?
10
Why is QbD for Generic Drugs Unique?
Biopharmaceutical properties of drugs already
known such as polymorphism, absorption, and
pharmacokinetics information
Target product quality profile well defined such
as dissolution, purity, uniformity, and stability
Extensive formulation and manufacturing
experience for many generic manufacturers

Quality Assessment under Old CMC Review?
  • Reviewers prepare a summary of the application
  • Write deficiency letters in response to missing
    information or insufficient specifications
  • No pharmaceutical development information in ANDAs

15
Quality Assessment under QbR
  • The QbR quality review includes
  • Comprehensively evaluate sponsors Quality by
    Design
  • Set regulatory specifications relevant to quality
  • Determine the level of risk associated with the
    manufacture and design of the product
  • Explain the reason for each deficiency

OGD Model QOS
  • Model QOS for ER Product (1/2006)
  • http //www.fda.gov/cder/ogd/
  • OGD_Model_Quality_Overall_Summary.pdf
  • Model QOS for IR Product (3/2006)

  • OGD_Model_QOS_IR_Product.pdf

19
QbR Where Are We Today?
  • Generic Drug Industry On Board
  • GPhA Technical Committee QbR WG
  • Over 35 QbR ANDAs
  • Over 20 Generic Companies
  • First QbR Approval
  • CMC Review Time 4 months, 1 cycle
  • Total Review Time 8 months

20
Experience with Assessment of QbR ANDAs
Technical Advantages
  • Enhanced product and review assessment
  • Critical formulation and manufacturing process
    variables identified and controlled in QbR-QOS
  • Insight into sponsors development plans
  • Product Process Design, and Development
  • Directly address the OGDs questions
  • Better understanding of sponsors' rationale for
    decisions and therefore, less misunderstandings

21
Experience with Assessment of QbR ANDAs
Documentation Advantages
  • Primary reviewer saves time (20)
  • Summary of application
  • Facts finding
  • Tables charts
  • Chemical structures
  • Specifications etc
  • No transcriptional errors

Challenges
  • Quality of QOS prepared by sponsors
  • Too long
  • Non-critical data Multiple tables same data
  • Analytical Validation USP methods
  • Leaving out questions
  • Inconsistencies between QOS and body of data
  • OGDs Actions
  • Communication
  • Training first October 20, 2006

24
Challenges
  • Knowledge of formulation and manufacturing
    science
  • Chemists
  • OGDs Actions
  • Recruiting
  • Formulation scientists and process engineers
  • Internal training
  • QbR seminars and workshops
  • Review papers or commentary
  • External training
  • Purdue NIPTE 12 review chemists attended Purdue
    NIPTE liquid and solid dosage form training

25
Next Step
  • Risk Assessment and Supplement Reduction
  • Two opportunities for supplement reduction
  • For QbR ANDAs at the time of approval
  • For all ANDAs after sufficient product
    commercial manufacturing history

26
Conclusions
  • OGD is implementing a new pharmaceutical quality
    assessment system that
  • Enhances quality of generic drugs
  • Improves review quality and consistency
  • Reduces review time
  • Reduces supplements
