Objectives

Many questions relative to cleaning validation are still open and have to be answered within the companies:

What does the cleaning validation concept have to look like to be GMP-compliant and cost-effective?
Which risk analyses are applicable to cleaning validation?
How helpful can a riboflavin test be?
Which maximum value is scientifically acceptable, especially in the field of APIs?
Which sampling procedure is appropriate for which process and facility?
How can you cut costs by means of bracketing?
How are critical areas defined?
Is cleaning evaluation the solution for seldom manufactured products?
Which microbiological maximum values are valid in the areas of non-sterile dosage forms and APIs?

and

Special aspects of cleaning validation in biotech API plants

These questions will also be discussed with the help of practical examples.

Background

In the manufacture of medicinal products and APIs, the cleaning of facilities and equipment is an important measure to avoid contamination and cross contamination. In compliance with the GMP regulations, cleaning is performed and documented according to the described procedures. In the past, cleaning effectiveness was often monitored only visually. However, residuals of APIs and excipients as well as of detergents are increasingly an issue in inspections and audits. The success of cleaning procedures has to be validated. In addition to the FDA “Guide to Inspection – Validation of Cleaning Validation Processes”, the PIC/S document PI 006 and Annex 15 address cleaning validation in a separate chapter. Moreover, the ICH Guideline Q7 “GMP for APIs” also requires cleaning validation – as well as two guidelines by APIC, the association of European API manufacturers.

A Guideline from EMA on Dedicated Facilities and Exposure Limits for Cleaning Validation and the revised Annex 15 deal now with a PDE (Permitted Daily Exposure) Approach.

Target Group

This course is directed at staff of R&D, production and quality assurance involved in cleaning validation. It also addresses engineering companies and manufacturer of cleaning devices/equipment interested in learning more about the pharmaceutical industry’s viewpoint and in exchanging experiences.

Technical Details

To participate in an on demand training course or webinar, you do not need any software. The recordings are made available via a streaming server. In general, the recording is provided in MP4 format, which any PC (Microsoft Windows, Apple IOS) or tablet can easily Display.

Timing and Duration:

When you register for the on demand Training course or webinar you can decide at what date you want to follow the training course online. For a 1-day training course you will have 2 days in which the stream is available (for 2-day training course 3 days and for a 3-day training course 4 days). Within in this timeframe you can start & stop the stream according to your Needs.

In time before the scheduled date (your desired date) you will receive an e-mail from us with a link for direct participation as well as your log-in data.

Please be aware: The recording does not include the Q & A sessions.

Training Course Documentation and Certificate:

The presentations will be made available as PDF files via download shortly before the online training course. After the event, you will automatically receive your certificate of participation.
