近日,FDA发布了关于美国RIJ Pharmaceutical LLC公司的警告信中罗列了该公司制药用水系统的缺陷,该公司生产产品为口服液体产品,其中FDA在评估其日常监测频次时表示:鉴于你们在生产操作中广泛使用水, 以及你们所生产的用于儿童和婴儿的液体药物产品的适应症,每周监测是不够。
缺陷摘译如下:
You have not shown that your water system can consistently produce water suitable for drug manufacturing, and, at a minimum, meets the USP purified water monograph and appropriate microbial limits. You manufactured oral liquid drugs with water that exceeded microbiological action limits in multiple instances. In addition, upstream points in your water system also had excessive levels of bioburden.
你们未能证明你们的水系统能够持续地生产出适于药品生产,并且至少符合USP纯化水专论和适当的微生物限度的水。你们生产的口服液体药品所用的水多次超出微生物行动限。此外, 你们的水系统中的上游点也有极高负荷的生物。
Water systems with a pattern of high microbial counts are indicative of a fundamentally flawed design that permits biofilm formation at one of more points in the system. High upstream bioburden counts within water systems can overwhelm the capability of downstream purification components.
水系统的高微生物水平状态表明了设计上存在根本缺陷, 导致系统中的生物膜形成。水系统上游高负荷的微生物可能会影响后端净化部件的能力。
In your response, you stated that you have improved your water system. You did not address findings of high microbial counts immediately after carbon treatment. You also did not address potentially pathogenic gram-negative bacteria, such as Neisseria sp., Pseudomonas sp., and Burkholderia sp. that were identified downstream in your system, including at points-of-use. You did not provide an adequate ongoing microbial monitoring procedure that routinely tests water to ensure the system remains in a state of control. Weekly monitoring is insufficient given your extensive use of water in manufacturing operations and the indications of the products you produce, which include liquid drugs for children and infants.
在你们的回复中, 你们说你们已经改进了水系统。你们没有在碳处理后立即解决高微生物负荷的问题。你们也没有解决潜在的致病性革兰氏阴性菌, 如在你的系统下游, 包括在使用点发现的诺卡氏菌、假单胞菌和伯克霍尔德氏菌。你没有提供一个足够的持续微生物监测程序, 定期监测以确保系统保持在控制状态。鉴于你们在生产操作中广泛使用水, 以及你们所生产的用于儿童和婴儿的液体药物产品的适应症,每周监测是不够的。
