解決すべき課題 Regulatory Dossier Explore the development of a harmonised approach to “regulatory commitments” for inclusion in the
guideline. Such approaches could enable post approval changes that facilitate continual improvement and encourage the adoption of innovative technologies.
Delineate the appropriate level of detail and information necessary for regulatory assessment and inspection in the dossier, in order to create a more enabling post approval change management system.
Pharmaceutical Quality System (PQS) aspect Establish criteria for a harmonised risk-based change management system based on product, process
and/or clinical knowledge that effectively evaluates the impact of change on quality, and, as applicable to safety and efficacy.
Clarify expectations and reinforce the need to maintain a knowledge management system that ensures continuity of product and process information over the product lifecycle.
Post-Approval Change Management Plans and Protocols Introduce the concept of a post-approval management plan that can be used to proactively identify
post-approval changes and the mechanism to submit and assess these changes by regulatory authorities (Assessors and Inspectors)
Establish criteria for post-approval change management protocols that can be adopted by the ICH regions (enabling a harmonised proactive approach for lifecycle management)
Encourage enhanced product development and control strategy approaches (Quality by Design (QbD)) providing opportunities for scientific and risk based foundations for post-approval change management plans.

“Must have ECs”
11Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency
The identification of EC’s for manufacturing process parameters is linked to productand process understanding, and should be focused on the critical process parameters(see decision tree—Yasuhiro’s figure). As described in Q8/11, an applicant can chooseeither a traditional or an enhanced approach to development, or a combination ofboth.
In a traditional development approach, the elements of the control strategy that isincluded in the EC’s typically include a significant number of input parameters (processparameters and materials) along with outputs, as the relationship between input andresulting quality attributes may not be very well understood typically resulting in ahigher number CPP’s.
工程パラメータのECsの考え方(1)
Under discussion
12Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency
In an enhanced development approach, the greater product and process knowledge(including interaction between inputs and outputs) can better inform the CQA’s andresulting CPP’s, leading to control strategy that can be more focused on the impactinginput parameters, generally resulting in a lower number of CPP’s. In certain cases,(performance based), the EC’s can be solely focused on the control of intendedoutputs rather than process inputs. This can include less complex steps with readilydefined outputs as well as steps with in-line continuous monitoring (e.g., NIR for ablending step).
In all cases, the rationale of the development approach should be provided. Acombination of traditional approach and enhanced approach (performance and/orparameter focused) can be followed for a given unit operation or for the completemanufacturing process. The level of details to be provided is considered as acontinuum based on the knowledge demonstrated. Furthermore, where risk topatients cannot be excluded or outputs not directly measured (e.g. viral safety),additional measures to mitigate the residual risk should be considered (e.g. includeCPP related to viral clearance in case of performance focused approach). (Lastparagraph can be omitted—for further discussion)

The identification of EC’s for analytical methods is linked to the extent of methodunderstanding and typically include:
• Method Description:
The level of detail included in the method description is linked to the complexity ofthe method (e.g., HPLC vs cell-based Bioassay). The method elements selected, asEC’s should generally focus on the critical aspects of the method required to ensureits intended performance rather than detailed operating conditions.
• System suitability
• Product specification Acceptance Criteria

目的
The PSLCM strategy document facilitates communication between the Marketing Authorization Holder (MAH) and Health Authorities (assessors and inspectors) on approved ECs and the mechanism for making future change of the ECs. In the context of Q12, PSLCM strategy is a description of the planned changes and the regulatory approaches (Q12 tools) the MAH proposes to use for managing those changes. The PSLCM document summaries the information relating to the lifecycle management strategy for the product in one location, and could include some or all of the following information (or references to the information located elsewhere in the CTD).
Product specific Lifecycle Management Strategy(1)
19Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency
内容 ECs: EC makes legal binding commitment made between regulatory and MAH. Whenever these ECs are subject for change,
the PSLCM document need to be updated. Refer to Section for EC.
Report category for making changes of approved ECs: The change reporting category need to follow regional requirement, which may be dependent on the product and process understanding. This category is included in Table XX .
Reference to relevant product development: Product development is useful information to show understanding of the product quality, EC, control strategy and essentials of the product information. Any further approval or changes will be a part of product development.
PACMPs: PACMP is a regulatory tool that enables planning and implementation of future change(s). Refer to Section for PACMP.
Post-approval CMC commitments: In case MAH has a post-approval CMC commitment, i.e., continuation of stability study.
Planned post approval changes: If the MAH anticipates a change to an EC, whether or not that change is associated with a PACMP, the MAH should briefly describe the planned change to provide transparency on anticipated change of ECs. These include those planned post approval changes that do not constitute a commitment to implement the change as described above.
EC change revision history: as changes to ECs are made over the lifecycle the product, this section in the PSLCM strategy document will capture a brief description of changes to facilitate transparency. This may be an important information to be used as a platform between regulators and MAH for mutual understanding of current ECs, how product development and mutual understandings, and whether there is any PACMP / post-approval CMC commitment exists at the time of submitting new changes.
The PSLCM may also include a description of the company’s strategy for future manufacturing changes that are being considered, however the strategic plan is for information only and is not a commitment to implement the strategy. The strategy may refer to proposed future submissions, including those associated with approved post-approval change management protocols (PACMPs).
