Programme Part 1
Establishing the Controls for Laboratory Data Integrity
GMP Regulations Impacting Laboratory Data and Results- EU GMP requirements
- MHRA and WHO Data Integrity Guidances
- FDA GMP requirements
- FDA Guidance documents OOS, Inspection of QC labs
- Inspection findings 483 and warning letters
- Defining Data Integrity, “complete data” and „raw data“
Principles for the Generation of Data
- Observational tests and instrument tests
- Training of staff
- Qualified analytical instruments and validated Software
- Integrity issues
- Application of ALCOA+ principles
WORKSHOP I: Generation of Data
- What are the requirements for raw data integrity?
- Three scenarios covering
- a paper System
- a hybrid system
- a client server electronic system
Processing and Reporting of Data
- Paper / hybrid based Systems
- Networked systems with electronic records and signatures
- Calculations and transformation of data manually and by computer applications
- Application of ALCOA+ principles to the process
- Calculating the reportable value and comparison with the specification
- Paper processes versus electronic processes
- Linkage with out of specification investigations (OOS)
WORKSHOP II: Processing and Reporting of Data
- Reviewing an analytical record
- Scenario covering paper based record and an electronic system
Reviewing Data
- Role of the second person review
- Determination that the reportable result is correctly calculated
WORKSHOP III: Data Review of an Excel Template
Collation and Reporting Results
- Role of the second person Review
- Determination that the reportable result is correctly calculated
- Identification and correction of errors for paper and electronic systems
- Do you have complete data?
Programme Part 2
Self Inspections and Audits to confirm Effective Data Integrity Controls
WORKSHOP IV: Paper, Hybrid and Electronic Reporting Processes
- Discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of reporting processes
Data Integrity Self Inspections and On-site and Remote Audits for Hybrid and Electronic Systems
- Observations and findings
- Remote audits: practicalities, limitations and problems
WORKSHOP V: Electronic Signature Auditing
- Use of electronic signatures can mask some Data Integrity issues
- Can the attendees find what those issues are?
- Feedback from the teaching team
WORKSHOP VI: Risk Assessment and Prioritisation
- So much to do but so little time – risk management in practice
- When conducting a Data Integrity audit which areas within a pharmaceutical quality system will be the focus?
- Feedback from the teaching team
WORKSHOP VII: Audit of an Excel Spreadsheet
- Attendees will be given an example of a spreadsheet
- What questions need to be asked to determine if there is sufficient Data Integrity and control?
- Feedback from the teaching team
WORKSHOP VIII: Auditing a Hybrid Standalone System
- A laboratory system is used in hybrid mode
- What questions should the auditor ask to determine if there are any data integrity problems?
- Feedback and discussion with the teaching team
WORKSHOP IX: Auditing a Networked Laboratory System – Audit Trail Review
- Review of audit trail entries is a key data integrity requirement of Annex 11
- Attendees will review the printout of an audit trail to determine if there any data integrity issues to be raised?
- Can the attendees find what those issues are?
- Feedback and discussion with the teaching team
WORKSHOP X: Preparing for the Data Integrity Audit
- Preparation for a remote audit - what can you read?
- Requesting the Site Master File
- Requesting documents
- Handling time zone differences
- What video conferencing system will you use?
WORKSHOP XI: Conducting a Remote Data Integrity Audit
- Remote laboratory tour - what are you allowed to see?
- On-line access to networked computer Systems
- Access to standalone systems?
- Viewing documents on-line
- Screens for the remote audit and taking notes
WORKSHOP XII: Reviewing the Follow up Responses from a Remote Data Integrity Audit
- Access to documents after the Audit
- Reviewing responses to audit findings
- Resolution of audit findings with evidence
Recording from 8 - 10 November 2022.
