OOS Results for Residual Solvent
You initiated investigation P201611001 for an initial OOS result of (b)(4) parts per million (ppm) in your (b)(4)residual solvent test (specification: not more than (b)(4) ppm) for (b)(4) API batch (b)(4). The investigation did not reveal laboratory testing anomalies. You tested another sample preparation three times and obtained results very close to the specification upper limit ((b)(4), and (b)(4) ppm). You invalidated the initial failing result, stating that your statistical analysis showed a significant difference between the original value and the retest results. Your investigation lacked further assessment of the root cause of the failing result.
You released the batch to use as an intermediate in your in-house production of (b)(4) batches of (b)(4) API (batches (b)(4)).
It is not appropriate to use an “outlier test” to invalidate your API test results. Such statistical treatments do not identify the cause of an extreme observation and are only of informational use. In this case, your investigation included multiple retests that were near the upper limit of (b)(4) ppm, similar to the original OOS result.
Furthermore, your OOS investigation procedure, Q0100012.001, was inadequate because it did not adequately address the need to retest the original sample and specify when a new sample should be tested.
We acknowledge receipt of your revised OOS investigation procedure. However, your response is inadequate because it does not meet CGMP. Your response stated that you can use an outlier test in determining whether to “waive the requirement for conducting appropriate laboratory investigation to determine definitive or potential root cause(s) for the atypical result(s).” It is inappropriate for your procedure to permit waiver of this requirement. Your OOS procedure should specify that outlier tests cannot be used for anything other than auxiliary, informational purposes.
Your response also indicated that your firm was retrospectively assessing effects of previously-reported OOS results on your products. However, your response did not provide related records to document your review or summarize findings. It is unclear whether the retrospective review included an evaluation of your use of the statistical outlier test to invalidate OOS results.
这是典型的多次re-testing数据否认OOS数据啊!
outlier test的目的不能用于否定原先的OOS,因为其不能找出根本原因。outlier的目的是仅在于表征数据的特征以辅助此后的决定。
联邦不应该出现这个基本认识错误吧??
