Objectives

Besides regulatory expectations, these Live Online Training Courses provide practical recommendations and orientation for demonstration of the on-going suitability of analytical procedures. A rational and efficient validation approach is ultimately based on the respective routine application, which should be reflected in the validation design. This includes the identification of the relevant performance parameters, the selection of appropriate tests and calculations and, in particular, the establishment of acceptance criteria for the evaluation.

Both training courses focus on the relevant performance characteristics, taking the - long-awaited - revision of the ICH Q2 guideline as well as the new Q14 guideline Analytical Procedure development into consideration. Lifecycle aspects will be included in the discussion.

Background

According to EU GMP Guide Part 1, Chapter 6, Quality Control (6.15) and US 21 CFR 211.194, analytical procedures must be suitable for their intended purpose. The regulatory requirements to validation of analytical procedures utilised for release and stability studies of drug substances and drug products are described in the ICH guideline Q2(R1). However, its degree of detail is rather low, and the discussion is mainly focused on chromatographic methods. A broader consideration of other analytical techniques as well as alignment with lifecycle aspects is intended with the revision of Q2. The latter also in the focus of the new ICH Guideline Q14 Analytical Procedure Development and is already content of the USP General Information Chapter <1220> The Analytical Procedure Lifecycle.
