GMP requirements for quality control and contract laboratories 2017

Overview: Quality control and related contract laboratories are considered at high risk because after testing and approval, drug products and Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) are released to the market without further check. That's the reason why the FDA and other agencies put highest emphasis on inspections of QC laboratories. Even though cGMP regulations have been in place since long time, the large number of QC related 483's and warning letters demonstrate that companies have problems with implementation. This two day interactive in-person seminar will provide participants the regulatory background and guidelines through all critical areas of GMP compliance. This course helps attendees understand the latest requirements and also provides them templates and examples to develop inspection ready documentation. Practical examples and interactive exercises will be dispersed into and between the presentations while 50% of the total time will be dedicated to practical sessions. During the seminar, participants will work in small groups on case studies and prepare the answers using prepared fill-in templates. After the course a large variety of tools such as SOPs, validation examples and checklists will be readily available on a dedicated website that can be used to easily implement what they have learned from the course. Why should you attend: Learn about the regulatory background and GMP requirements for quality control and contract laboratories. Understand and be able to explain your company's quality plan or laboratory compliance master plan. Understand the difference between GMP and non-GMP laboratories. Learn how to develop inspection ready documentation. Be able to train others in your organization on GMP requirements. Learn how to avoid and/or respond to the FDA inspectional observations and warning letters. Who will benefit: Analysts and Lab Managers QA Managers and Personnel Validation Specialists Regulatory Affairs IT Professionals Human Resources (HR) Managers and Staff Training Departments Documentation Department Consultants, Teachers From Pharmaceutical manufacaturers API manufacturers Quality control laboratories Contract laboratories Contract manufacturers Suppliers and service providers of instruments and computer systems Agenda: Day 1 Schedule: Lecture 1: FDA Regulations and Requirements Overview FDA 21 CFR Part 211 and 21 CFR Part 11 Most frequently cited FDA 483s and warning letters Requirements overview from sampling to archiving Quality system requirements, e.g., ICH Q10 The concept and practice of risk based compliance Lecture 2: Planning for quality and cGMP compliance Developing and using a validation master plan Scope, objectives and key elements of the master plan Developing and using FDA compliant SOPs Using templates to generate inspection ready documentation Planning for efficiency cost-effectiveness Lecture 3: Calibration and Qualification of Laboratory Equipment FDA requirements USP chapter for instrument qualification Going through examples for qualification steps(DQ, IQ, OQ, PQ) SOPs and deliverables for three instrument categories Developing calibration and qualification protocols Lecture 4: Equipment Maintenance and Change control Preventive maintenance; tasks, documentation Planned and unplanned changes Changing hardware, firmware, documentation Definition and handling of like-for-like changes.
