警告信

Indiana Chem-Port

印度 Chem-Port 制药厂

MARCS-CMS 618173 — FEBRUARY 02, 2022

Dear Mr. Desai:


亲爱的德赛先生:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inspected your drug
manufacturing facility, Indiana Chem-Port, FEI 3005564386, at 349 GIDC Industrial
Estate, Makarpura, Vadodara, Gujarat, India, from August 2 to 7, 2021.
2021 年 8 月 2 日至 7 日,美国食品和药物管理局(FDA)检查了贵公司
位于印度古吉拉特邦巴罗达 Makarpura GIDC Industrial Estate 349 号印第安纳化
学港(邮编:3005564386)的药品生产工厂。

This warning letter summarizes significant deviations from current good


manufacturing practice (CGMP) for active pharmaceutical ingredients (API).
本警告信总结了与有效药物成分(API)现行良好生产规范(CGMP)的
重大偏差。
Because your methods, facilities, or controls for manufacturing, processing,
packing, or holding do not conform to CGMP, your drugs are adulterated within the
meaning of section 501(a)(2)(B) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C
Act), 21 U.S.C. 351(a)(2)(B).

由于您的制造、加工、包装或持有方法、设施或控制不符合 CGMP,因
此您的药品在《联邦食品、药品和化妆品法案》( FD&C 法案)第 501(a)
(2)(B)节、《美国法典》第 21 卷第 351(a)(2)(B)节中被掺假。

We acknowledge receipt of your October 15, 2021, response to our Form FDA
483.
我们确认收到您 2021 年 10 月 15 日对我们 FDA 483 表格的回复。

During our inspection, our investigator observed specific deviations including,


but not limited to, the following.
在我们的检查过程中,我们的研究人员观察到了具体的 缺陷,包括但不
限于以下内容。

1. Failure to ensure that equipment surfaces in contact with API do not alter
the quality of the API beyond the official or other established specifications.
1.未能确保与 API 接触的设备表面不会改变 API 的质量,超出官方或其
他既定规范。

You failed to ensure the equipment used in the manufacture of API is suitable
for its intended use and is properly maintained. For example:
贵方未能确保 API 生产过程中使用的设备适合其预期用途,并得到适当
维护。例如:

• Rust-like residues were observed on product contact surfaces of your


equipment labeled as clean, including (b)(4) vessels and hoses.
•在标记为清洁的设备(包括(b)(4)容器和软管)的产品接触面上观
察到类似锈迹的残留物。
• Tape was used on (b)(4) paddles to prevent black material from screws from
contaminating your API.
•在(b)(4)叶片上使用胶带,以防止螺钉的黑色材料污染 API。

• A (b)(4) was used to attach a (b)(4) to a piece of equipment.


•(b)(4)用于将(b)(4)连接到设备上。

• Several holes were observed in a (b)(4).


•在 ab)(4)中观察到几个孔。

Further, you lacked a procedure to qualify your manufacturing and quality


control laboratory equipment. You currently manufacture and test (b)(4) API in
unqualified equipment.
此外,您还缺乏一个程序来鉴定您的制造和质量控制实验室设备。您目
前在不合格的设备中制造和测试(b)(4)API。

In your response you indicated that the rust-like residue cannot be rust. Your
response is inadequate. You failed to identify the source of the brownish residue on
the (b)(4) vessels and hoses. Your response does not adequately address the poor
condition and state of disrepair of your equipment which increases the risk of foreign
material contaminating your (b)(4) API. Notably, your (b)(4) API, is intended for the
production of a sterile injectable drug product, (b)(4).
在您的回复中,您表示类似锈迹的残留物不能是锈迹。你的回答不充
分。您未能确定(b)(4)容器和软管上棕色残留物的来源。贵方的回复没有
充分解决设备状况不佳和年久失修的问题,这会增加异物污染贵方( b)
(4)API 的风险。值得注意的是,你的(b)(4)原料药是用于生产无菌注射
药物产品(b)(4)。

In response to this letter provide:


针对本函,请提供:
• Your corrective action and preventive action (CAPA) plan to implement
routine, vigilant operations management, oversight of facilities and equipment. This
plan should ensure, among other things, prompt detection of equipment/facilities
performance issues, effective execution of repairs, adherence to appropriate
preventive maintenance schedules, timely technological upgrades to the
equipment/facility infrastructure, and improved systems for ongoing management
review.
•您的纠正和预防措施(CAPA)计划实施日常、警惕性的运营管理,监
督设施和设备。除其他事项外,该计划应确保及时发现设备/设施性能问题,有
效执行维修,遵守适当的预防性维护计划,及时对设备/设施基础设施进行技术
升级,并改进持续管理审查的系统。

• Provide a plan to ensure that your equipment is of appropriate design,


adequate size, and suitably located for its intended use. The plan should include
CAPAs that ensure product contact surfaces do not alter the quality of the
intermediates and API.
•提供一份计划,以确保您的设备具有适当的设计、足够的尺寸,并适合
其预期用途。该计划应包括 CAPA,以确保产品接触表面不会改变中间体和原
料药的质量。

2. Failure to demonstrate that your manufacturing process can reproducibly


manufacture an API meeting its predetermined quality attributes.
2.未能证明您的制造工艺能够重复制造符合其预定质量属性的原料药。

You failed to validate the manufacturing process for (b)(4) API. You stated
you have not validated the manufacturing process for (b)(4) API because the batches
are manufactured by customer orders. You made several changes to your
manufacturing process without justification or change control. For example, you
changed the amounts of (b)(4) water and (b)(4) added.
您 未 能 验 证 ( b ) ( 4 ) API 的 制 造 过 程 。 您 声 明 您 尚 未 验 证 ( b )
(4)API 的制造过程,因为批次是根据客户订单制造的。您在没有正当理由或
变更控制的情况下对制造过程进行了多次更改。例如,您更改了(b)(4)水
和(b)(4)添加量。

See FDA’s guidance document Process Validation: General Principles and


Practices for general principles and approaches that FDA considers to be appropriate
elements of process validation at https://www.fda.gov/media/71021/download.
参见 FDA 的指导文件《过程验证:一般原则和实践》,了解 FDA 认为
是当前过程验证适当要素的一般原则和方法 https://www.fda.gov/media/71021/
download.

Process validation evaluates the soundness of design and state of control of a


process throughout its lifecycle. Each significant stage of a manufacturing process
must be designed and controlled to assure the raw materials, in-process materials, and
finished drugs are of the intended quality.
过程验证评估设计的可靠性和过程在其整个生命周期中的控制状态。必
须设计和控制制造过程的每个重要阶段,以确保原材料、过程中材料和成品具
有预期的质量。

Process qualification studies determine whether an initial state of control has


been established. Successful process qualification studies are necessary before
commercial distribution. Thereafter, ongoing vigilant oversight of the variables
affecting process performance and product quality is necessary to ensure you maintain
a stable manufacturing operation throughout the product lifecycle.
工艺鉴定研究确定是否已建立初始控制状态。在商业分销之前,必须
进行成功的工艺鉴定研究。此后,有必要对影响过程性能和产品质量的变量进
行持续的警惕性监督,以确保您在整个产品生命周期中保持稳定的制造操作。

Failure to implement adequate process validation practices can result in


insufficient understanding of process variables or failure to detect a drift in capability,
which increases the risk of drug quality defects.
未能实施充分的工艺验证实践可能会导致对工艺变量的理解不足或未能
检测到能力漂移,从而增加药品质量缺陷的风险。

请及时纠正任何偏差。FDA 可能会拒绝批准将贵公司列为药品制造商的
新申请或补充申请,直到任何偏差得到完全解决,并且我们确认您符合
CGMP。我们可能会重新检查,以确认您已完成任何偏差的纠正措施。

Failure to address any deviations may also result in the FDA continuing to
refuse admission of articles manufactured at Indiana Chem-Port, at 349 GIDC
Industrial Estate, Gujarat into the United States under section 801(a)(3) of the FD&C
Act, 21 U.S.C. 381(a)(3). Articles under this authority that appear to be adulterated or
misbranded may be detained or refused admission, in that the methods and controls
used in their manufacture do not appear to conform to CGMP within the meaning of
section 501(a)(2)(B) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 351(a)(2)(B) and are misbranded
under section 502 of the FD&C Act, respectively.
未能解决任何偏差也可能导致美国食品和药物管理局根据《食品和药物
管理法》第 801(a)(3)节、《美国法典》第 21 卷第 381(a)(3)节的规
定,继续拒绝将古吉拉特邦 GIDC 工业区 349 号印地安那化学港制造的物品输
入美国。根据本授权,可能会扣留或拒绝入境看似掺假或贴错标签的物品,因
为其制造过程中使用的方法和控制措施似乎不符合《食品和药品法》第
501(a)(2)(B)节、《美国法典》第 21 卷第 351(a)(2)(B)节所指
的 CGMP,或根据《食品和药品法》第 502 节贴错标签。
