I. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

This guidance provides recommendations to holders of new drug applications (NDAs) and abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) who intend to make post approval changes in accordance with section 506A of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) and § 314.70 (21 CFR 314.70). The guidance covers recommended reporting categories for postapproval changes for drugs other than specified biotechnology and specified synthetic biological products. It supersedes the guidance of the same title published November 1999. Recommendations are provided for postapproval changes in (1) components and composition, (2) manufacturing sites, (3) manufacturing process, (4) specifications, (5) container closure system, and (6) labeling, as well as (7) miscellaneous changes and (8) multiple related changes. 本指南给打算将已批准变更的新药上市申请和新药报审简表申请的持有者提供建议,使其按照联邦食品、药品、化妆品法案的506A部分和§ 314.70 (21 CFR 314.70)。该指南包括建议对药品除了其他指定的生物技术和特定的合成生物制品的已批准变更进行报告类别。它取代了发表于1999年11月同一标题的指导原则。为以下已批准的变更提供建议(1)成分和组成 (2)厂址 (3)生产工艺 (4)质量标准 (5)包装 (6)标签 (7)其它变更 (8)复杂相关变更

 

 

Recommendations on reporting categories for changes relating to specified biotechnology and specified synthetic biological products regulated by CDER are found in the guidance for industry
建议由药品评价和研究中心规定对有关指定生物技术和特定的合成生物制品的变更进行报告类别,出现在企业的指南中 。

Paperwork Reduction Act Public Burden Statement: This guidance contains information collection provisions that are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).  The collection(s) of information in this guidance were approved under OMB Control No. 0910-0538 (until August 31, 2005). 文书工作减少法案:本指南包含资料的收集贮藏受到管理和预算办公室(OMB)的审查,根据1995年的文书工作减少方案(44 U.S.C. 3501-3520)。在此指南下,收集的资料依据管理和预算办公室控制的第0910-0538获得批准(直到2005年8月31日)。

On November 21, 1997, the President signed the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act of 1997 (the Modernization Act).3 Section 116 of the Modernization Act amended the the Act by adding section 506A, which provides requirements for making and reporting manufacturing changes to an approved application and for distributing a drug product made with such changes. The FDA has revised its regulations on supplements and other changes to an approved application (21 CFR 314.70) to conform to section 506A of the Act.
1997年11月21日,总统签署了美国食品和药物管理局1997现代化法案(现代化法案)。 第116条现代化法修正法案,增加了第506A条,要求对已批准申请的任何变更以及销售变更后产品的行为必须报告。对一个获批准的申请(21 CFR 314.70),FDA已经在补充和变更内容上修订规章,以符合法案第506A条。


This guidance does not provide recommendations on the specific information that should be developed by an applicant to assess the effect of the change on the identity, strength (e.g., assay, content uniformity), quality (e.g., physical, chemical, and biological properties), purity (e.g., impurities and degradation products), or potency (e.g., biological activity, bioavailability, bioequivalence) of a drug product as these factors may relate to the safety or effectiveness of the drug product. An applicant should consider all relevant CDER guidance documents for recommendations on the information that should be submitted to support a given change.4
作为可能关系到药品安全性和有效性的以下因素,药品的特征、剂量(例如含量测定、含量均一性)、质量(例如,物理、化学和生物学特性) 、纯度(例如,杂质和降解产物) ,或药效(例如,生物活性、生物利用度、生物等效性),申请人评估以上因素变更效果的具体信息,本指南不提供建议。申请者应该考虑所有相关的药品评价和研究中心的指导文件,建议资料应该提交以支持某一特定的变更。
CDER has published guidances, including the SUPAC (scale-up and postapproval changes) guidances, that provide recommendations on reporting categories. To the extent that the recommendations on reporting categories in this guidance are found to be inconsistent with guidances published before this guidance was finalized, the recommended reporting categories in such previously published guidances are superseded by this guidance. This guidance does not provide extensive recommendations on reporting categories for components and composition changes (see section V). Therefore, recommended reporting categories for components and composition changes provided in previously published guidances, such as the SUPAC guidances, still apply. Section 506A of the Act and § 314.70(c) provide for two types of changes-being¬effected supplements (see section II), while previously there was only one type.  It is important for applicants to use this guidance to determine which type of changes-being-effected supplement is recommended. CDER intends to update the previously published guidances to make them consistent with this guidance.
CDER已公布指南,包括SUPAC(扩大和批准后的变更)指南,对报告类别提供了建议。发现在本指南中报告类别的建议范围和以前已定案公布的指南不一致,推荐本指南的报告类别取代先前公布的。对成分和组成变更(查看第V条)的报告类别,本指南不提供广泛建议。因此,推荐先前公布的指南提供的成分和组成变更的报告类别,例如SUPAC指南,目前还适用。法案的第506A和§ 314.70(c)提供了“有待生效的补充文件”的两种类型(查看第II),然而先前的只有一种类型。对于申请者,运用本指南来决定用哪个 “有待生效的补充文件”是很重要的。CDER打算更新先前公布的指南使其和本指南一致。

If guidance for either recommended reporting categories or information that should be submitted to support a particular change is not available, the appropriate CDER chemistry or microbiology review staff can be consulted for advice.
如果本指南中推荐的报告类别或者支持具体变更所提交的资料没有效,可以向合适的CDER化学或微生物检查人员征询意见。
FDA's guidance documents, in general, do not establish legally enforceable responsibilities. Instead, guidances describe the Agency's current thinking on a topic and should be viewed only as recommendations, unless specific regulatory or statutory requirements are cited.  The use of the word should in Agency guidances means that something is suggested or recommended, but not required. Insofar as this guidance adjusts reporting categories pursuant to section 506A of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and 21 CFR 314.70, it does have binding effect.  If you have any questions about the effect of any portion of this guidance, contact the Office of Pharmaceutical Science, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (HFD-003), Food and Drug Association, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857.
FDA的指导文件,大体上没有建立依法强制执行的责任。相反,指南叙述该机构目前正在考虑的话题且仅作为建议,除非特定的法令要求被引用。词的使用在机构的指南应该意味着一些建议或推荐,但不是要求。在本指导的范围内调整报告类别,依据联邦食品、药品和化妆品法第506A和21 CFR 314.70 ,它确实有约束力。如果你有关于本指导任一部份作用的任何问题,联络医药科学办公室、药物评价和研究中心( HFD-003 ) 、美国食品和药物管理局、5600渔民巷,美国马里兰州罗克维尔市20857。


II. REPORTING CATEGORIES  报告类别
Section 506A of the Act and § 314.70 provide for four reporting categories that are distinguished in the following paragraphs.
法案的第506A和§ 314.70提供了在以下各段落中有区分的4个报告类别。
A major change is a change that has a substantial potential to have an adverse effect on the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of a drug product as these factors may relate to the safety or effectiveness of the drug product. A major change requires the submission of a supplement and approval by FDA prior to distribution of the drug product made using the change. This type of supplement is called, and should be clearly labeled, a Prior Approval Supplement (§ 314.70(b)). An applicant may ask FDA to expedite its review of a prior approval supplement for public health reasons (e.g., drug shortage) or if a delay in making the change described in it would impose an extraordinary hardship on the applicant. This type of supplement is called, and should be clearly labeled, a Prior Approval Supplement - Expedited Review Requested (§ 314.70(b)(4)).5 FDA is most likely to grant requests for expedited review based on extraordinary hardship for manufacturing changes made necessary by catastrophic events (e.g., fire) or by events that could not be reasonably foreseen and for which the applicant could not plan.
大变更指对药品特征、剂量、质量、纯度或药效有重大潜在不良影响、与药品的安全性和有效性相关的变更。大变更后生产的产品需要提交补充申请,经FDA批准后方可销售。这类补充申请应有明显标识,称作“批准前变更申请”(314.70)。申请人可以以公众健康为由(如药品短缺)要求FDA加速批准前变更的审核,如果变更延迟会给申请人造成极大的困难,可以要求加速审批。这类变更称为“要求加速审批的批准前变更”(314.70(b)(4))。由于灾难性事故或不可预见的事故造成生产变更,并对申报人造成极大的困难的情况,FDA最有可能加速审批。

A moderate change is a change that has a moderate potential to have an adverse effect on the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of the drug product as these factors may relate to the safety or effectiveness of the drug product. There are two types of moderate change. One type of moderate change requires the submission of a supplement to FDA at least 30 days before the distribution of the drug product made using the change. This type of supplement is called, and should be clearly labeled, a Supplement - Changes Being Effected in 30 Days (§ 314.70(c)(3)). The drug product made using a moderate change cannot be distributed if FDA informs the applicant within 30 days of receipt of the supplement that a prior approval supplement is required (§ 314.70(c)(5)(i)). For each change, the supplement must contain information determined by FDA to be appropriate and must include the information developed by the applicant in assessing the effects of the change (§ 314.70(a)(2) and (c)(4)). If FDA informs the applicant within 30 days of receipt of the supplement that information is missing, distribution must be delayed until the supplement has been amended to provide the missing information (§ 314.70(c)(5)(ii)).
中等变更指对药品特征、剂量、质量、纯度或药效有中等程度的潜在不良影响、可能与药品的安全性和有效性相关的变更。有两种中等变更,一种要求变更后生产的产品销售前至少30天提交补充申请,这类补充申请应有明显标识,称作“30天后变更生效的补充文件”(314.70(c)(3))。如果FDA收到补充申请的30天内要求提交“批准前变更申请”(314.70(c)(5)(i)),则变更后生产的产品不能销售。任何一种变更都必须包括FDA接受的信息,必须包括变更影响评估的信息(314.70(a)(2)和(c)(4))。如果FDA在接收到补充申请后的30天内通知申请人信息不全,则必须延迟销售直到补充申请加入缺失的信息(314.70(c)(5)(ii))。

FDA may identify certain moderate changes for which distribution can occur when FDA receives the supplement (§ 314.70(c)(6)). This type of supplement is called, and should be clearly labeled, a Supplement - Changes Being Effected. If, after review, FDA disapproves a changes-being-effected-in-30-days supplement or changes-being-effected supplement, FDA may order the manufacturer to cease distribution of the drug products made using the disapproved change (§314.70(c)(7)).
FDA可能规定某些中等变更FDA接收到补充申请时产品可以销售,这类补充申请应有明显标识,称作“已完成变更的补充申请”。如果评审结束后,FDA不批准“30天后生效的变更补充文件”或“已生效的变更补充文件”,FDA可以要求生产厂家停止销售变更后生产的产品 (§314.70(c)(7))。

A minor change is a change that has minimal potential to have an adverse effect on the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of the drug product as these factors may relate to the safety or effectiveness of the drug product. The applicant must describe minor changes in its next Annual Report (§ 314.70(d)).
小变更指对药品特征、剂量、质量、纯度或药效有最小的潜在不良影响、可能与药品的安全性和有效性相关的变更。申请人必须在下一次年度报告中描述小变更(§ 314.70(d))。

Under § 314.70(e), an applicant can submit one or more protocols (i.e., comparability protocols) describing tests, studies, and acceptance criteria to be achieved to demonstrate the absence of an adverse effect from specified types of changes.  A comparability protocol can be used to reduce the reporting category for specified changes. A proposed comparability protocol that was not approved as part of the original application must be submitted as a prior approval supplement (314.70(e)). On February 25, 2003, FDA issued a draft guidance on comparability protocols entitled Comparability protocols - Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls Information.
根据314.70(e),申请人可以提交1个或多个方案(如相比性方案),描述检测、研究、可接受标准,以证明特定的变更不会有不良影响。相比性方案可减少特定变更的报告范围。提交的相比性方案在原始申报资料中没有包括,必须作为“批准前变更申请”提交。见Comparability protocols - Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls Information。

III. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS 常规要求
Other than for editorial changes in previously submitted information (e.g., correction of spelling or typographical errors, reformatting of batch records), an applicant must notify FDA about each change in each condition established in an approved application beyond the variations already provided for in the application (§ 314.70(a)(1)).
 除编辑上的改动,在以往提交的资料(如更正拼写或打字错误,重新格式化的一批纪录),申请人必须通知FDA了解在每个确立的情况、获批准的申请的各个改变,超出了变更在申请中应用(§ 314.70(a)(1))。

A supplement or annual report must include a list of all changes contained in the supplement or annual report. On the list, FDA recommends that the applicant describe each change in enough detail to allow FDA to quickly determine whether the appropriate reporting category has been used. For supplements, this list must be provided in the cover letter (§ 314.70(a)(6)). In annual reports, the list should be included in the summary section (§ 314.81(b)(2)(i)).  The applicant must describe each change fully in the supplement or annual report (§ 314.70(a)(1)).
增补或年报必须包括一列所有变更,载于增补或年报。在目录上,FDA建议申请者对每个变更叙述详尽,使FDA迅速决定是否合适的报告范围已被使用。对于增刊,此目录必须在信封面上(§ 314.70(a)(6))。在年报里,目录应包括在简节中(§ 314.81(b)(2)(i))。申请者必须说明每个变更都在增刊和年报里。

An applicant making a change to an approved application under section 506A of the Act must also conform to other applicable laws and regulations, including current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) requirements of the Act (21 U.S.C. 351(a)(2)(B)) and applicable regulations in Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations (e.g., 21 CFR parts 210, 211, 314). For example, manufacturers must comply with relevant CGMP validation and recordkeeping requirements and ensure that relevant records are readily available for examination by authorized FDA personnel during an inspection.
申请者依据法案的第506A部分对已批准的申请作出变更,必须同时符合其它适用的法律和规章,包括现行的药品生产管理规范(CGMP)要求的法案(21 U.S.C. 351(a)(2)(B))和美国联邦行政法规(e.g., 21 CFR parts 210, 211, 314)的21部中适用的规章。例如,生产厂家必须服从相关CGMP验证和保留记录的要求,确保有关的记录在检查期间随时可供获授权的FDA工作人员检查。

A changes-being-effected supplement providing for labeling changes under § 314.70(c)(6)(iii) must include 12 copies of the final printed labeling (§ 314.70(c)(1)). In accordance with § 314.70(a)(4), an applicant also must promptly revise all promotional labeling and drug advertising to make it consistent with any labeling change implemented in accordance with § 314.70(b) or (c).

“已生效的变更补充”提供了标签变更,依据§ 314.70(c)(6)(iii)必须包括12份最后打印的标签(§ 314.70(c)(1))。按照§ 314.70(a)(4),申请者还必须及时修改所有宣传标识和药品广告,使之符合任何标签变更,应按照 § 314.70(b) or (c)实施。

Except for supplements providing only for a change in labeling, an applicant must include in each supplement and amendment to a supplement a statement certifying that a field copy has been provided in accordance with 21 CFR 314.440(a)(4)6 (§ 314.70(a)(5)).
除了在标签中只补充一个变更,申请者必须包括有每个补充和修改的资料来补充说明,证明副本已按照21 CFR 314.440(a)(4)6 (§ 314.70(a)(5))提供。

IV. ASSESSING THE EFFECT OF MANUFACTURING CHANGES 对生产变更的评估
A. Assessment of the Effects of the Change 评估变更效果
The holder of an approved application under section 505 of the Act must assess the effects of the change before distributing a drug product made with a manufacturing change (§ 314.70(a)(2)).7 For each change, the supplement or annual report must contain information determined by FDA to be appropriate and must include the information developed by the applicant in assessing the effects of the change (section 506A(b), (c)(1), (d)(2)(A), and (d)(3)(A) of the Act). The type of information that must be included in a supplemental application or an annual report is specified in § 314.70(b)(3), (c)(4), and (d)(3).
按照法案第505条,在发行有生产变更的药品前(§ 314.70(a)(2)),已批准申请的持有人必须评估变更效果。对每个变更,增刊或年报必须包含由FDA确定的合适的资料和申请者在评估变更效果所取得的资料(section 506A(b), (c)(1), (d)(2)(A), and (d)(3)(A) of the Act)。该类型的资料必须包括在补充申请或年报里,特别是在§ 314.70(b)(3), (c)(4), and (d)(3)中。


1. Conformance to Specifications
An assessment of the effects of a change on the identity, strength, quality, purity, and potency of the drug product should include a determination that the drug substance intermediates, drug substance, in-process materials, and/or drug product affected by the change conform to the approved specifications.8 A specification is a quality standard (i.e., tests, analytical procedures, and acceptance criteria) provided in an approved application to confirm the quality of drug substances, drug products, intermediates, raw materials, reagents, components, in-process materials, container closure systems, and other materials used in the production of a drug substance or drug product. Acceptance criteria are numerical limits, ranges, or other criteria for the tests described (§ 314.3(b)). Conformance to a specification means that the material, when tested according to the analytical procedures listed in the specification, will meet the listed acceptance criteria.

对药品的特征、剂量、质量、纯度和药效变更效果进行评估,应该包括原料药中间体、原料药、中控物料和/或被符合已批准质量标准变更影响的制剂。规格是一个(例如,试验、分析步骤、可接受标准)在已批准的申请里提供证实原料药、成品、中间体、原材料、反应物、成分、中控物料、包装,和原料药或制剂生产过程中使用的其它物质的质量标准。可接受标准是个描述测试的数值界限,范围,或其他的标准(§ 314.3(b))。符合质量标准的意思是,当物料根据质量标准中所列出的分析步骤检验,将符合所列出的可接受标准。


2. Additional Testing 附加试验
In addition to confirming that the material affected by manufacturing changes continues to meet its specification, we recommend that the applicant perform additional testing, when appropriate, to assess whether the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of the drug product as these factors may relate to the safety or effectiveness of the drug product have been or will be affected. The assessment should include, as appropriate, evaluation of any changes in the chemical, physical, microbiological, biological, bioavailability, and/or stability profiles. This additional assessment could involve testing of the postchange drug product itself or, if appropriate, the material directly affected by the change. The type of additional testing that an applicant should perform would depend on the type of manufacturing change, the type of drug substance and/or drug product, and the effect of the change on the quality of the drug product. For example:

除了证实被生产变更影响的物料仍然符合它的质量标准,我们建议申请者实行附加试验,适当的时候评估可能关系到药品安全性和有效性的特征、剂量、质量、纯度或药效是否已经或将被影响 。评估应该适当包括化学的、物理的、微生物的、生物的、生物利用度和/或稳定性的任何变化。这个附加评估包含变更后药品自身的试验或受变更直接影响的物料。申请者实行该类型的附加试验,取决于该类型的生产变更、该类型药用物质和/或成品,和在高质量药品的变更效果。例如:

  Evaluation of changes in the impurity or degradant profile could first involve profiling using appropriate chromatographic techniques and then, depending on the observed changes in the impurity profile, toxicology tests to qualify a new impurity or degradant or to qualify an impurity that is above a previously qualified level.9
  
  对于变更对杂质或降解物档案的评估,首先必须包括使用合适的色谱技术进行分析,然后根据观测到的杂质归档变更状况,对新的杂质或是降解物进行毒理试验确认,或是在确认杂质在一个先前确认的水平之上。
  Evaluation of the hardness or friability of a tablet after certain changes.
  在一些变更后必须考虑对片剂的硬度或脆度进行评估。
  
  Assessment of the effect of a change on bioequivalence when required under 21 CFR part 320 could include, for example, multipoint and/or multimedia dissolution profiling and/or an in vivo bioequivalence study.

根据21CFR320条款的要求,评估变更对于生物等效性的影响。例如,进行多因素和/或多介质溶解性试验,或是体外生物等效性研究。
  Evaluation of extractables from new packaging components or moisture permeability of a new container closure system. 对新包装组分通透性或新的容器密封系统的水份渗透性进行评估测试。

An applicant should refer to all relevant CDER guidance documents for recommendations on the information that should be submitted to support a given change. If guidance for information that should be submitted to support a particular change is not available, applicants can consult the appropriate CDER chemistry or microbiology review staff for advice.
申请者应该参考所有相关的CDER指导文件,建议为支持给定的变更提交资料。如果在本指南中,为支持一个特定的变更所提交的资料没有效,申请者可以向合适的CDER化学或微生物检查人员征询意见。
B. Equivalence 等价
When testing is performed, the applicant should usually assess the extent to which the manufacturing change has affected the identity, strength, quality, purity, and potency of the drug product. Typically this is accomplished by comparing test results from pre- and postchange material and determining if the test results are equivalent. Simply stated: Is the drug product made after the change equivalent to the drug product made before the change?

实行检测后,申请者应该经常评估哪个生产变更范围会影响到药品的特征、剂量、质量、纯度和药效。通常这是通过比较变更前和变更后物料的检验结果来完成的,确定检验结果是否等价。简单说明:药品是在药品变更前后等价的情况下生产的吗?
 
An exception to this general approach is that when bioequivalence is redocumented for certain ANDA postapproval changes, FDA recommends that the comparator be the reference listed drug. Equivalence comparisons frequently have a criterion for comparison with calculation of confidence intervals relative to a predetermined equivalence interval.

这方面的例外情况是,如果要对某个已批准的ADDA进行变更,要求重新进行生物等效性研究, FDA 建议该参考对照物必须是参考的药物。在相对一个预定的等价区间里,等价比较经常有一个标准作为比较置信区间的计算结果。

For this, as well as for other reasons, equivalent does not necessarily mean identical. Equivalence may also relate to maintenance of a quality characteristic (e.g., stability) rather than a single performance of a test.

对此,和其它原因一样,等价并不是意味着相等。等价还可能关系到质量特征的维持(例如,稳定性)而不是简单的一项测试行为。

C. Adverse Effect 不良作用
Some manufacturing changes have an adverse effect on the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of the drug product. In many cases, the applicant chooses not to implement these manufacturing changes, but sometimes the applicant wishes to do so.  If an assessment indicates that a change has adversely affected the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of the drug product, FDA recommends that the change be submitted in a prior approval supplement regardless of the recommended reporting category for the change.  For example, a process change recommended for a changes-being-effected-in-30¬days supplement could cause the formation of a new degradant that requires qualification and/or identification.10 The applicant's degradation qualification procedures may indicate that there are no safety concerns relating to the new degradant. Even so, we recommend that the applicant submit this change in a prior approval supplement with appropriate information to support the continued safety and effectiveness of the drug product.  During the review of the prior approval supplement, the FDA will assess the impact of any adverse effect on the drug product as this change may relate to the safety or effectiveness of the drug product.
一些生产变更对药品的特征、剂量、质量、纯度或药效有不良作用。在许多情况下,申请者选择不去实行这些生产变更,但有时申请者希望那样做。如果评估表明变更对药品的特征、剂量、质量、纯度或药效有不良影响,FDA建议这种变更将提交在批准前变更申请里而不管变更报告范围的建议。例如,一个工序的变更,能引起新降解产物的生成,要求其合格和/或能识别,建议30天后进行变更补充申请。申请者的降解合格操作可能表明没有关于新降解产物的安全隐患。即使如此,我们建议申请者在批准前变更申请中提交此变更,以适当的资料支持药品持续的安全性和有效性。

Applicants are encouraged to consult with the appropriate CDER chemistry or microbiology review staff if there are any questions on whether a change in a characteristic would be viewed by CDER as adversely affecting the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of the drug product.
不论药品的特征是否改变,CDER人员将当作影响药品特性、浓度、质量、纯度或药效的不利方面来检查,如果有任何问题,鼓励申请者咨询合适的CDER化学或微生物检查人员。
V. COMPONENTS AND COMPOSITION 成分和组成
Changes in the qualitative or quantitative formulation, including inactive ingredients, as provided in the approved application, are considered major changes requiring a prior approval supplement, unless exempted by regulation or guidance (§ 314.70(b)(2)(i)). The deletion or reduction of an ingredient intended to affect only the color of the drug product may be reported in an annual report (§ 314.70(d)(2)(ii)). Guidance on changes in components and composition that may be submitted in a changes-being-effected supplement or annual report is not included in this document because of the complexity of the recommendations, but may be covered in one or more guidance documents describing postapproval changes (e.g., SUPAC documents).
处方质量或数量改变,包括费活性成分,认为是大变更,要求提交“批准前变更申请”,除非有法规或指南豁免(§ 314.70(b)(2)(i))。只是影响药品颜色的某种成分的取消或减少可以在年度报告中报告(§314.70(d)(2)(ii))。本指南不包括在“有待生效的变更补充文件”或年度报告中提交的变更。
VI. MANUFACTURING SITES11 厂址
A. General Considerations
CDER must be notified when a manufacturer changes to a manufacturing site that is different from those specified in the approved application (314.70(a)).  Sites can include those used by an applicant to (1) manufacture or process drug products,12 in-process materials, drug substances, or drug substance intermediates, (2) package drug products, (3) label drug products, and (4) test components, drug product containers, closures, packaging materials, in-process materials, or drug products.  Sites include those owned by the applicant or contract sites used by an applicant. Testing sites include those performing physical, chemical, biological, and microbiological testing to monitor, accept, or reject materials, as well as those performing stability testing. Sites used to label drug products are considered those that perform labeling of the drug product's primary or secondary packaging components. Sites performing operations that place identifying information on the dosage form itself (e.g., ink imprint on a filled capsule) are considered to be facilities that manufacture or process the drug product. FDA recommends that the supplement or annual report identify whether the proposed manufacturing site is an alternative to or replacement for the site or sites provided for in the approved application.
当变更生产地址时,如果变更的地点不包括在批准的申请中,必须通知CDER(314.70(a))。生产地址变更的包括申请人用于制造或处理制剂药品、中控物料、原料药、原料药中间体,包装药品、贴标签,检测成分、药品容器、密封材料、包材、中控物料或药品的场所的地址变更厂址包括申请人所有的或合同场所。检测厂址包括物理、化学、生物学、微生物检测场所,用于物料控制、接收、拒收,以及稳定性检测。贴标签场所指对产品内包装和外包装贴标签的场所。FDA建议在增补或年度报告中必须说明提交的生产地址是否时原来已批准的地址的替代选择,还是完全替代地址。
FDA recommends that a move to a different manufacturing site, when it is a type of site routinely subject to FDA inspection, be submitted as a prior approval supplement if the site does not have a satisfactory CGMP inspection13 for the type of operation14 being moved (see sections VI.B.1 and 2).
搬迁后的另一个生产厂址如果只需进行常规检查,尚未通过GMP检查,FDA建议提交“批准前的变更申请”。

For labeling, secondary packaging, and testing site changes, the potential for adverse effect on the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of a drug product as these factors may relate to the safety or effectiveness of the drug product is considered to be independent of the type of drug product dosage form or specific type of operation being performed.  Therefore, the recommended reporting category for any one of these manufacturing site changes will be the same for all types of drug products and operations. For manufacturing sites used to (1) manufacture or process drug products, in-process materials, drug substances, or drug substance intermediates or (2) perform primary packaging operations, the potential for adverse effect depends on factors such as the type of drug substance or drug product and operation being performed.  Therefore, recommended reporting categories may differ depending on the type of drug product and operations.
对于贴标签、外包装和检测地点的变更,对关系到药品安全性或有效性的特性、剂量、质量、纯度或药效有不良作用的潜在因素,被认为独立于药品剂型或正在执行的具体操作。因此,建议这些生产场所任一变更的报告范围要和所有类型的制剂和操作一样。对于生产场所用于(1)生产药品、中控物料、原料药、原料药中间体(2)实行内包装的操作,潜在的不良反应,取决于该类型的原料药或药品和正在执行的操作。因此。建议报告类别可以不同于依赖该类制剂和操作。

Except for the situations described in sections VI.B.4, VI.C.1.b, and VI.D.5, construction activities at a manufacturing site or moving production operations within a building or between buildings at the same manufacturing site do not have to be reported to CDER.
除了描述VI.B.4, VI.C.1.b, and VI.D.5的情况,在生产场所或活动的生产操作里、在相同生产场所、一个建筑物或两个建筑物之间的建筑活动不需要报告给CDER 。

We recommend that a move to a manufacturing site that involves other changes (e.g., process, equipment) be evaluated as a multiple related change (see section XII) to determine the appropriate reporting category.
我们建议生产场所的移动牵涉到被看作是复杂的相关其他变更(例如,工序、设备),再决定合适的报告范围。

VII. MANUFACTURING PROCESS 生产工艺
A. General Considerations
The potential for adverse effects on the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of a drug product as these factors may relate to the safety or effectiveness of the drug product depends on the type of manufacturing process and the changes being instituted for the drug substance or drug product. In some cases, there may be a substantial potential for adverse effect regardless of direct testing of the drug substance or drug product for conformance with the approved specification. When there is a substantial potential for adverse effects, a change must be submitted in a prior approval supplement (section 506A(c) of the Act).
可能对药品的安全性和有效性有关的特征、剂量、质量、纯度或药效的潜在不良影响,对于原料药或制剂,取决于该类型生产工艺和正在开始的改变。在某些情况下,可能有重大的潜在不良影响不管原料药或制剂的直接检测和已批准的质量标准一致。当有重大潜在不良影响时,变更必须提交在“批准前变更补充申请” (section 506A(c) of the Act)。

VIII. SPECIFICATIONS 质量标准
A. General Considerations
All changes in specifications from those in the approved application must be submitted in a prior approval supplement unless otherwise exempted by regulation or guidance (§ 314.70(b)(2)(i)). Specifications (i.e., tests, analytical procedures, and acceptance criteria) are the quality standards provided in an approved application to confirm the quality of drug substances, drug products, intermediates, raw materials, reagents, components, in-process materials, container closure systems, and other materials used in the production of a drug substance or drug product. For the purpose of defining specifications, acceptance criteria are numerical limits, ranges, or other criteria for the tests described. Examples of a test, an analytical procedure, and an acceptance criterion are, respectively, an assay, a specific, fully described high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) procedure, and a range of 98.0–102.0 percent.  The recommendations in this section also apply to specifications associated with sterility assurance that are included in NDA and ANDA submissions.18
从那些已批准申请的质量标准里的所有变更必须提交在“批准前变更补充申请”,除非另有被规章或指导原则豁免的(§ 314.70(b)(2)(i))。规程(例如,检测、分析步骤、可接受标准)是在已批准的申请里提供证实原料药、制剂、中间体、原材料、反应物、成分、中控物料、包装,和原料药或制剂生产过程中使用的其它物质的质量标准。质量标准和可接受标准的目的是明确数值界限,范围,或为检验所描述的其他标准。实例检验,一个分析规程和一个可接受标准为各自检测、完全特定的高效液相步骤、范围98.0%-102.0%。本条中的建议也适用于和无菌保证有联系的质量标准,包括在NDA和ANDA。
A regulatory analytical procedure is the procedure in the approved application that is designated for use in evaluating a defined characteristic of the drug substance or drug product. Section 501(b) of the Act recognizes the analytical procedures in the U.S. Pharmacopeia/National Formulary (USP/NF) as the regulatory analytical procedures for compendial items. Tests and associated acceptance criteria and regulatory analytical procedures in addition to those specified in the USP/NF may be required for approving compendial items (section 505 of the Act).
获批准的法定分析规程是能被指定用于评估原料药或制剂的确定性质的规程。美国药典/国家处方集的法定分析规程是根据法案的第501(b)确定的分析规程。对正在批准的简明条款除了那些在USP/NF中详细说明的,还有检测和有联系的可接受标准,法定分析规程,可能都被要求在其中。(section 505 of the Act)

The applicant may include in its application alternatives to the approved regulatory analytical procedures for testing the drug substance and drug product. However, for purposes of determining compliance with the Act, regulatory analytical procedures are used.
申请人可以在其申请书中包括其可实施的用于检验原料药和制剂的不同于法定分析规程的替代方法。不过,为了和法案相一致,使用法定分析规程来判断决定。

In sections B through D below, the use of the term analytical procedure without a qualifier such as regulatory or alternative refers to an analytical procedure used to test materials other than the drug substance or drug product.
在B部分到以下D,没有限定分析规程的使用范围,例如法定或可替代的指的是被用于检测物料而不是原料药或制剂的分析规程。


B. Major Changes (Prior Approval Supplement) 大变更

IX. CONTAINER CLOSURE SYSTEM 4 包装
A. General Considerations
The potential for adverse effect on the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of a drug product as these factors may relate to the safety or effectiveness of the drug product when making a change to or in the container closure system is generally dependent on the route of administration of the drug product, performance of the container closure system, and the likelihood of interaction between the packaging component and the dosage form. In some cases there may be a substantial potential for adverse effect, regardless of direct drug product testing for conformance with the approved specification.
包装密封系统的变更可能给关系到药品的安全性和有效性的因素,药品的特征、剂量、质量、纯度或药效带来潜在不良影响,给药途径、包装的功效、包装成分和剂型间可能的相互作用将决定这种不良反应的大小。即使药品直接检测结果符合已批准的质量标准,在某些情况下包装系统的变更可能有重大的潜在不良影响。

A change to or in a packaging component will often result in a new or revised specification for the packaging component. This situation does not have to be considered a multiple related change. Only the reporting category for the packaging change needs to be considered.

在包装组分的变更经常将导致新的或者重新修改的质量标准。这种情况没有考虑复杂的相关变更。只需要考虑包装变更的报告类别。

B. Major Changes (Prior Approval Supplement) 大变更

XII. MULTIPLE RELATED CHANGES 复杂变更
Multiple related changes involve various combinations of individual changes. For example, a site change may also involve equipment and manufacturing process changes or a components and composition change may necessitate a change in a specification. For multiple related changes where the recommended reporting categories for the individual changes differ, CDER recommends that the submission be in accordance with the most restrictive of the categories recommended for the individual changes. When the multiple related changes all have the same recommended reporting category, CDER recommends that the submission be in accordance with the reporting category for the individual changes.

复杂相关的变更包括不同的单个变更的组合。例如,地点的变更还可能包括设备和生产工艺的改变,或成分和组成的改变,可能有必要变更质量标准。对于复杂相关的变更,为个别变更的不同建议报告范围,CDER推荐按照对单个变更限制最严的申报类别来申报。当复杂相关变更都有相同的申报类别,CDER推荐按照各自变更的申报类别进行申报。


ATTACHMENT A: MANUFACTURING SITES  附录A:生产地点
All owners or operators of all drug establishments (not exempt by regulation) that engage in the manufacture, preparation, propagation, compounding, or processing of a drug or drugs are required to register with the FDA (21 CFR 207.20). An establishment means a place of business under one management at one general physical location (§ 207.3(a)(7)). A general physical location is reasonably construed to include separate buildings within the same city if the activities in the buildings are closely related to the same business enterprise, are under the supervision of the same local management, and are all inspected at the same time (ORA Field Management Directive No. 132).
从事生产、制备、繁殖、配料或药物加工的所有药物工厂的拥有者或经营者(不能被法规免除),或药物需登记在FDA(21 CFR 207.20)。公司意味着在一个普通物理位置管理下的营业地点(§ 207.3(a)(7))。一般的物理位置合理解释为包括在同一城市里单独的建筑物,如果建筑物里的活动与相同的企业有密切的关系,则由当地相同的管理部门监督,在同一时间接受检查 。

For the purposes of determining the reporting category for moves between buildings, the terms same manufacturing site and different manufacturing site mean: 对建筑物间的移动,为确定报告范围,相同生产地点和不同生产地点的意思是:
Domestic Establishments 国内企业
Same manufacturing site: 相同的生产地点
• The new and old buildings are included under the same drug establishment registration number25  
相同注册地址的新旧建筑物。
and
• The same FDA district office is responsible for inspecting the operations in both the new and old buildings.
相同地区的FDA办公室负责新旧建筑物的审查。
Different manufacturing site: 不同生产地点
• The new and old buildings have different drug establishment registration numbers 新旧建筑物有不同的注册地址。
or
• Different FDA district offices are responsible for inspecting operations in the new and old buildings. 不同地区的FDA 办公室负责新旧建筑物的审查
For domestic establishments, the terms same manufacturing site and different manufacturing site supersede the terms contiguous campus, same campus, and different campus as used in the SUPAC guidances.

Foreign Establishments 国外企业
25 The registration number is the number assigned to the establishment as part of the registration process (e.g., ORA Field Management Directive No. 92).
Foreign establishments are not currently required to register with the FDA. On May 14, 1999, FDA published a proposed rule to require registration of foreign establishments (64 FR 26330).  Until registration of foreign establishments is required, same and different manufacturing sites mean:
当前外国企业不要求登记在FDA。1999年5月14日,FDA出版了拟议的条例来要求外国企业的登记(64 FR 26330).直到外国企业要求登记,相同和不同生产地点的意思为:
Same manufacturing site: 相同生产地点
A contiguous or unbroken site or a set of buildings in adjacent city blocks. 邻近或连续的地点,或相邻城市街区的一套建筑物
Different manufacturing site: 不同生产地点
• The new and old buildings are not on a contiguous site or not in adjacent city blocks.不是在邻近地点或相邻城市街区的建筑物


ATTACHMENT B: TYPE OF OPERATION AND CGMP INSPECTIONS
附件2:运营类别和CGMP检查
Section VI states that a change to a different manufacturing site should be submitted in a prior approval supplement when (1) the new manufacturing site has never been inspected by FDA for the type of operation being moved, (2) the move results in a restart at the new manufacturing site of a type of operation that has been discontinued for more than two years, or (3) the new manufacturing site does not have a satisfactory current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) inspection for the type of operation being moved.
第VI部分说到不同生产场所的改变应该提交在批准前补充申请中,当(1)对于已在被移动的操作,新的生产场所从来没有被FDA检查(2)移动导致在新的生产场所重新开始中断2年以上的此类操作(3)对于此类正在被移动的操作,新生产场所的没有满意的CGMP检查结果。
A profile class system is used by FDA to assist in (1) managing the CGMP inspection process, (2) evaluating the findings and the compliance follow-up needed, and (3) communicating the results of inspections. A profile class can relate to the manufacture of a particular dosage form (e.g., large volume parenterals, oral liquids), type of drug substance (e.g., sterile bulk by chemical synthesis), or specific function performed at a site (e.g., control testing laboratory). There are profile class codes for major categories of drug substance processes, dosage forms, and manufacturing functions (see table below). However, the system is not comprehensive for all operations performed in the pharmaceutical industry (see not elsewhere classified (NEC) profile class code).
FDA用??/协助(1)管理CGMP检查过程(2)评估检查所见结果和随访所需的顺从性(3)交流检查结果。A profile class 关系到特殊剂型(例如,大容量注射用药物,口服液体制剂)、此类原料药(例如,化学合成的无菌包装药)或在一个场所用特殊功能完成的(例如,实验室控制)生产。对于原料药的加工、剂型和生产功能(看下表)的主要分类,有档案分类代码。然而,该系统不包含所有在制药工业完成的操作。
The term type of operation refers to the specialized or even unique conditions and practices that are employed to manufacture a class or category of drug substance or drug product or to perform a limited segment of the manufacturing process. These conditions and practices exist and are performed within the framework of CGMPs, along with general conditions and practices that contribute to the manufacture of all drug products at a given manufacturing site. The conditions and practices, both general and specific, are inspected to evaluate the CGMP acceptability of a manufacturing site. A wide variety of classes or categories of drug substances and drug products may be produced at a manufacturing site, or the manufacturing site may only produce a single class of drug substance and/or drug product or perform a limited segment of a manufacturing process.  Each type of operation is represented by a profile class code.

 

Generally, a satisfactory CGMP status for a profile class code is used to communicate a satisfactory CGMP clearance for all of the products and for all of the operations included within the category that code represents. Thus the profile class code for a particular dosage form or type of drug substance is used to communicate the CGMP status for all aspects of manufacturing, processing, packing, or holding that are performed at the specific manufacturing site relating to that particular dosage form or type of drug substance, including packaging and labeling operations, testing, and quality control. The profile class code for a particular dosage form or type of drug substance is also used to communicate the CGMP status for manufacturing sites that produce in-process material (e.g., controlled-release beads), package drug products, or label drug products, even if these are stand-alone (e.g., contractor) operations.
A few profile class codes that describe certain types of operations (see items in boldface in table) are provided to report the CGMP status for contractor firms whose only function in the manufacturing process is to perform this operation. If one of these operations (e.g., steam sterilization process) is performed at the manufacturing site involved in producing the drug product/drug substance, the CGMP status for that operation is reported as part of the profile class code for the particular dosage form or type of drug substance.  For example, a manufacturing site
* Insofar as this guidance adjusts reporting categories pursuant to section 506A of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
and 21 CFR 314.70, it does have binding effect. 31
producing a terminally sterilized small volume parenteral drug product would be reported with the profile class code for the dosage form (SVT), not by the profile code for the sterilization process (SSP).
Certain inspections may be required by program priorities even if the rating for a profile class code indicates an acceptable CGMP status. The current profile codes/classes for human drugs are:
ADM  Aerosol dispensed medication
气溶胶配药服药
 NEC  Not elsewhere classified (when using this class, specific drug products are noted) 未分类的(当用这个分类记录特异性药物)

CGMP inspectional status, based on the profile class, is available through FDA's Freedom of Information (FOI) Office. (See Glossary under Satisfactory Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP) Inspection for more information regarding FOI requests.)
Examples of postapproval manufacturing site changes and recommended reporting categories: 举例批准后生产场所的变更和推荐的报告类别
  An applicant wants to move the manufacture of an immediate-release tablet (TCM) to a different manufacturing site that currently manufactures, and has satisfactory CGMP status for, capsules (CHG) and powders for oral solution (POW). This manufacturing site change should be submitted in a prior approval supplement because the new manufacturing site does not have a satisfactory CGMP inspection for immediate-release tablets.
申请者想要把TCM的生产转移到不同于当前的生产地点,对于CHG和POW都能满足CGMP的要求。这个生产地点的变更应该提交在批准前补充申请里,因为对于TCM,新的生产地点没有令人满意的CGMP检查。

 

  An applicant wants to contract out packaging operations for immediate-release tablets (TCM) and capsules (CHG) and modified-release capsules (CTR).  The potential contract packager has a satisfactory CGMP status for immediate-release and modified-release capsules but has never packaged immediate-release tablets.  The packaging site change for the immediate-release tablet drug products should be submitted in a prior approval supplement.  The packaging site change for the capsule drug products should be submitted as recommended in section VI of this guidance for packaging sites with a satisfactory CGMP inspection.

申请者想要承办TCM、CHG、CTR的包装操作。对于有CHG和CTR没有TCM,可能的合法包装者,要有令人满意的CGMP 状况。对TCM药品包装场所的改变应该提交在批准前补充文件里。对胶囊制剂包装地点的改变应该提交。


  An applicant wishes to consolidate product testing to a single analytical laboratory at a manufacturing site. This manufacturing site produces various solid oral dosage form drug products, has an operational analytical laboratory currently at the site, and satisfactory CGMP inspections for the manufacturing occurring at the facility.  Some of the drug products that will be tested at the analytical laboratory when the consolidation occurs are not solid oral dosage form products. Unlike most other production operations, testing laboratories (and other operations in boldface in the table) are not inspected on a dosage form /type of drug substance specific basis. The satisfactory CGMP inspection of the analytical laboratory, which was performed as part of the CGMP inspection for manufacture of the solid oral dosage form drug products, is considered to apply to all dosage forms, including those not actually produced at the site. The consolidation can be submitted in a changes-being-effected-in-30-days supplement if the change is consistent with the recommendations in section VI.C.1.d.

在生产地点的单一分析实验室,申请者希望加强产品的检测。该生产地点生产不同的固体口服制剂药品,在当前生产地点要有一个能运作的分析实验室,对生产中出现的设备要有令人满意的CGMP检查。在分析实验室将要检测的一些药品,当????。和许多其他生产操作不同,试验室(和在表格中黑体字的操作)没有检测原料药剂型的特定主药。对于固体口服制剂药品的生产,分析检验室令人满意的CGMP检查就是完成了CGMP检查的一部份, 考虑应用到所有剂型,包括那些实际上没在生产地点生产的。如果变更和VI.C.1.d. 部分建议的一致,The consolidation 提交在“30天后生效的变更补充文件”。

 


 
ATTACHMENT C: CDER-APPROVED DRUG PRODUCTS 附件C:CDER已批准的药品
In several places throughout the guidance, different reporting categories are proposed for changes to or the addition of certain components based on whether the component/material has been used in and has been in contact with CDER-approved drug products.  Different reporting categories are recommended once CDER has reviewed certain components/materials in association with a drug product approval because similar subsequent changes then have a reduced potential to have an adverse effect on the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of a drug product as these factors may relate to the safety or effectiveness of the drug product. For example, certain changes in the container closure systems of solid oral dosage form drug products may be included in an annual report as long as the new package provides the same or better protective properties and any new primary packaging component materials have been used in and been in contact with CDER-approved solid oral dosage form drug products (see section IX.D.4). If the new primary packaging component material has not been used in or has not been in contact with CDER-approved solid oral dosage form drug products, then submission of the change in an annual report is not recommended.
在一些地方,通过本指南,对变更,或附加确定组分,其是基于组分/物料是否用于和CDER已批准药品接触,提出了不同的报告类别。一旦CDER审查某个和已批准药品有联系的组分/物料,建议使用不同的报告类别,因为相同结果的变更能减少药品的特征、含量、质量、纯度、药效的潜在不良影响,以上这些因素可能关系到药品的安全性和有效性。例如,在固体口服制剂的容器密封系统,某个变更可能包括在年度报告中,只要新的包装提供了形同或更好的保护特性和任何新的内包装组分/物料被用于和CDER已批准的固体口服制剂接触。如果新的内包装组分/物料没有被用于CDER已批准的固体口服制剂的接触,不建议在年度报告中提交变更。

CDER-approved drug products are considered those drug products subject to an approved NDA or ANDA. Some information on which components/materials are used in CDER-approved products is available from the Agency (e.g., FDA, CDER, Inactive Ingredient Guide, 1996, Division of Drug Information Resources). When information is not available, an applicant should use reliable sources of information to determine that the component or material has been used in and has been in contact with a CDER-approved drug product of the same dosage form and route of administration, as appropriate. The applicant should identify in the supplement or annual report the basis for the conclusion that the component or material is used in a CDER-approved drug product.
CDER批准的药品是那些已批准NDA或ANDA的药品。从此机构获得用于CDER已批准药品的组分/物料的一些资料是有效的(例如,FDA、CDER、非活性成分指南)当资料无效,申请者应该利用可靠的资料来源决定,用于直接接触CDER已批准的相同剂型和给药途径的药品的组分或物料。申请者应该辨别在增补文件或年报里对用于CDER已批准药品的组分或物料的结论。
If an applicant cannot confirm that a component or material has been used in and has been in contact with a CDER-approved drug product of the same dosage form and route of administration, the applicant has the option of submitting the change for a single NDA or ANDA using the higher recommended reporting category and, after approval, submitting similar changes for other NDAs and ANDAs using the lower recommended reporting category. 如果申请者不能确定用于接触CDER已批准的相同剂型和给药方式的药品的组分或物料,申请者对提交的变更有选择,对于单一的NDA or ANDA用较高的报告类别;批准后,提交相同的变更,对其他NDAs and ANDAs使用较低的报告类别


GLOSSARY词汇表
