LEC 5 Flashcards
How to comply with GDP?
- Document what you do
- instructional documentation - Do what you document
- Prove it
- evidential documentation (records & results) - Improve it
What is GDP?
Good Documentation Practice
GDP = GMP ?
No.
GMP = Good Manufacturing Practice
GDP = Good Documentation Practice
DI and Documents must be _ _ _ _ _
ALCOA
Attributable Legible Contemporaneous Original Accurate (complete, correct, valid & reliable)
BUT their descriptions and examples are different
Chapter 4 of PICs on Documentation coverage (5)
- Good Documentation Practices
- Generation & Control of documents
- Retention of documents
- Types of documents (instructional & evidential)
- 32 clauses
Attributable meaning (documentation)
- documents must be dated, approved & signed by authorised persons
- effective date of the document must be defined
Legible meaning (documentation)
- entries must be made in a clear, legible & indelible way
Contemporaneous meaning (documentation)
- record should be made at time of action

Original meaning (documentation)
- any alterations made to the document must permit the reading of the original information
- any alterations must be dated & signed with reasons
Accurate meaning (documentation)
- integrity of records should be ensured throughout retention period
- accurate : complete, correct, valid & reliable
- batch manufacturing records (1y after expiry)
- Investigational Manufacturing Products (IMP) & batch records (5y after clinical trials)
Types of documents (2)
- Instructional
- SOP (who, what, when, where & how)
- Batch Manufacturing Formula
- Site Master File (document describing GMP-related activities) - Evidential
- records to prove compliance to GDP/GMP
eg temperature/RH monitoring records
- reports for validation (capture conduct of studies)
eg CAPA reports, stability testing reports
From DI perspective, which kind of documents are of greatest concern?
Evidential documents (reports & records)
- They are evidence of QC tests conducted & compliance to GMP
- They can be tweaked
Hence, they pose most data Integrity issues
Pharmaceutical data definition
- includes all original records (raw & meta data) generated during a GMP activity and their subsequent transformation for complete reconstruction of GMP activity
- includes instructional & evidential documents
Critical pharmaceutical data definition
- any manufacturing data that can affect product quality
eg mass of API, volume of solvents
Data integrity definition
It is the degree to which pharmaceutical data are ALCOA, making the set of data complete, correct, valid and reliable.
