Findings

1Aseptic processing and sterility assurance

Procedures designed to prevent microbiological contamination of drug products purporting to be sterile did not include adequate validation of the aseptic and sterilization process.

2Documentation and records

Master production and control records lack complete manufacturing and control instructions and precautions to be followed.

3Process validation

Control procedures are not established which monitor the output and validate the performance of those manufacturing processes that may be responsible for causing variability in the characteristics of in-process material and the drug product.

4Quality unit oversight

Acceptance criteria for the sampling and testing conducted by the quality control unit is not adequate to assure that batches of drug products meet each appropriate specification and appropriate statistical quality control criteria as a condition for their approval and release.

5Quality unit oversight

The responsibilities and procedures applicable to the quality control unit are not fully followed.

6Deviation, CAPA, and investigation

There is a failure to thoroughly review any unexplained discrepancy and the failure of a batch or any of its components to meet any of its specifications whether or not the batch has been already distributed.

7Deviation, CAPA, and investigation

Written records of investigations into unexplained discrepancies do not always include the conclusions and follow-up.

8Contamination control

Adequate exhaust systems or other systems to control contaminants are lacking in areas where air contamination occurs during production.

9Material and supplier control

Your examination and testing of samples did not assure that the drug product and in-process material conformed to specifications.
