TRS970 Annex 4TRS970 Annex 4
Overarching Principles:
– The Pharmaceutical development section should contain information on the development studies conducted to establish that the dosage form, the formulation, manufacturing process, container-closure system, microbiological attributes and usage instructions are appropriate for the purpose specified in the product dossier.
– Additionally, this section should identify and describe the formulation and process attributes (critical parameters) that can influence batch reproducibility, product performance and FPP quality.

Define Quality Target Product Profile (QTPP) as it relates to quality, safety and efficacy considering, for example, the route of administration, dosage form, bioavailability, strength and stability;
Identify Critical Quality Attributes (CQA) of the FPP so as to adequately control the product characteristics that could have an impact on quality;
Discuss CQAs of the API(s), excipients and container-closure system(s) including the selection of the type, grade and amount to deliver drug product of the desired quality;
Discuss the selection criteria for the manufacturing process and the control strategy required to manufacture commercial lots meeting the QTPP in a consistent manner.

QTPP & CQAQTPP & CQA
QTPP: A prospective summary of the quality characteristics of a drug product that ideally will be achieved to ensure the desired quality, taking into account safety and efficacy of the drug product.
CQA: A physical, chemical, biological or microbiological property or characteristic that should be within an appropriate limit, range, or distribution to ensure the desired product quality.

CQAs of the API & ExcipientsCQAs of the API & Excipients
Key physicochemical characteristics of the API that can influence the performance of the FPP:
– Physical properties: particle size distribution, bulk and tap densities, crystalline form, hygroscopicity,
solubility ;– Chemical properties: stability under temperature, humidity, oxidative,
photolytic conditions– Biological properties: permeability, partition coefficient, BCS
The compatibility of the API(s) with each other (FDCs) and with excipients;
The choice of excipients, their concentration and their characteristics that can influence the FPP performance.

Manufacturing Process DevelopmentManufacturing Process Development
Justification for the selection of the manufacturing process and in-process controls;
– Appropriateness of the equipment used; – Identification of critical process parameters (CPP)
Justification for differences between the manufacturing processes used to produce batches for bioequivalence studies or primary stability studies and the commercial process.

Critical Process Parameter (CPP)Critical Process Parameter (CPP)
A process parameter whose variability has an impact on a critical quality attribute (CQA) and therefore should be monitored or controlled to ensure the process produces the desired quality

Other ConsiderationsOther Considerations
Justification for overages
Issues surrounding score line - uniformity testing (i.e. Content uniformity for split portions containing less than 5 mg or less than 5% of the weight of the dosage unit portion, or mass uniformity for other situations) should be performed on each split portion from a minimum of 10 randomly selected whole tablets.

Optimization StudiesOptimization Studies
Studies are undertaken to optimize: – quantity of binder – quantity of disintegrant – LOD
Different trial batches having varying amounts of disintegrant and binder are used;
Results of granule flowability, tablet characteristics and comparative dissolution profiles are compared;
Granules with different LOD levels are compressed and results with respect to flowability and tablet characteristics are used to finalize formulation;
The formulation so developed is considered to be optimized when there are no problems (e.g. capping) and the dissolution profile matches the innovator product
