- 0:11In this video, we will discuss the basic
- 0:13concept of quality by design.
- 0:15Why this concept was developed, what
- 0:17does QBD mean, and how it is beneficial
- 0:20for pharmaceutical industries.
- 0:22An effort has been made to simplify it
- 0:24for further understanding.
- 0:28The basic concept of QBD is the quality
- 0:31cannot be tested into the product, but
- 0:33it should be built into it. And this
- 0:35concept was first outlined by Joseph M.
- 0:38Juran.
- 0:40He believed that quality could be
- 0:41planned, and that most quality crises
- 0:44and problems they relate to the way in
- 0:46which quality was planned in the first
- 0:48place.
- 0:49According to Joseph Juran, quality is
- 0:52planned into the product from the very
- 0:54first stage of designing the product,
- 0:56and like this at each and every stage.
- 0:59Only then we can build quality into the
- 1:01product.
- 1:05Pharmaceutical industry is constantly
- 1:07searching the ways to ensure and enhance
- 1:10product safety, quality, and efficacy.
- 1:14However, manufacturing failure cost,
- 1:17scale-up issues,
- 1:20regulatory burden,
- 1:22and drug recalls in recent past, they
- 1:24have posed huge challenge for the
- 1:26industry.
- 1:28This is the reason
- 1:29the pharmaceutical industry has
- 1:31undergone a paradigm shift from
- 1:33traditional quality by testing to the
- 1:35systematic quality by design approach.
- 1:38And this is to attain efficient product
- 1:41development,
- 1:42and that to the products that are
- 1:43cost-effective with enhanced quality.
- 1:49In traditional approach, end product
- 1:52testing is used predominantly to ensure
- 1:55the product quality
- 1:56and product performance with limited
- 1:59understanding of the product and process
- 2:01parameters and critical process
- 2:03parameters.
- 2:04In the current scenario of regulatory
- 2:06environments, the pharmaceutical
- 2:08industry is continuously facing
- 2:10challenges with respect to achieving the
- 2:12desired quality of drug product.
- 2:15Two major issues highlighted over the
- 2:17years, they include
- 2:20poor
- 2:21GMP compliance, and lack of
- 2:23understanding regarding the product and
- 2:25process parameters.
- 2:28Regulatory bodies are therefore focusing
- 2:31on implementing quality by design, that
- 2:34is a science-based approach. It improves
- 2:36the process understanding by reducing
- 2:39the process variation and enabling the
- 2:42process control strategies.
- 2:44Now, instead of relying on finished
- 2:46product testing alone like traditional
- 2:48approach,
- 2:50QBD provides insights throughout the
- 2:53development process.
- 2:54That means in QBD planning,
- 2:58in QBD planning is done from the very
- 3:00first stage of designing the product,
- 3:02and it goes on for each and every
- 3:04development stage. As a result, a
- 3:07quality issue can be efficiently
- 3:09analyzed, and once we have analyzed the
- 3:12reason for the default in quality,
- 3:15the root cause can be quickly
- 3:18identified.
- 3:22QBD entered the pharmaceutical industry
- 3:24quite late in 2004, when US FDA took
- 3:28initiative for improving the standards
- 3:30of pharmaceutical manufacturing.
- 3:33FDA's emphasis on QBD began with the
- 3:36recognition that increased testing does
- 3:38not necessarily improve product quality,
- 3:41whereas the quality must be built into
- 3:44the product.
- 3:46FDA announced certain amendments to the
- 3:49CGMP in 2002 with an emphasis on
- 3:53establishing
- 3:5421st century outlook on pharma
- 3:56manufacturing.
- 3:58So, what was the goal over there? To
- 3:59establish a more systematic science and
- 4:02risk-based approach to the development
- 4:04of pharmaceutical products.
- 4:08In an initiative in July 2003, the ICH
- 4:11instituted various regulatory guidances
- 4:14like Q8, Q9, Q10, and set forth the
- 4:17concept of quality by design as a
- 4:20holistic approach which delivers high
- 4:23quality, robust drug products.
- 4:27With QBD around, the predefined
- 4:29objectives of the target quality, they
- 4:32enable the zero quality defect and avoid
- 4:35quality crisis.
- 4:38QBD means planning quality into the
- 4:41product.
- 4:43QBD facilitates improvement in quality
- 4:46by thoughtful planning
- 4:48and meaningful execution.
- 4:50Hence, QBD is also called quality by
- 4:52planning, but not by chance.
- 4:58QBD ensures predefined product quality
- 5:00objectives by means of designing and
- 5:03developing
- 5:04formulations and manufacturing
- 5:06processes.
- 5:09QBD begins with predefined objective
- 5:12and emphasizes on product and process
- 5:14understanding and process control.
- 5:17In order to initiate a successful QBD
- 5:19program, the first step
- 5:21is to identify those product and process
- 5:24parameters that are essential
- 5:27for the product quality.
- 5:31And then develop well-validated
- 5:33analytical methods to monitor those
- 5:35parameters.
- 5:40Use of sound scientific principles and
- 5:43quality risk management, these are the
- 5:45two key enablers of QBD philosophy,
- 5:48which provides enhanced product and
- 5:51process understanding on the target drug
- 5:53product.
- 5:54Based on these principles, QBD delivers
- 5:57enormous benefits, manufacturing and
- 5:59business benefits.
- 6:03QBD can ensure a safe and effective drug
- 6:06supply
- 6:07while also significantly improving the
- 6:09quality of manufacturing performance.
- 6:12It has become a new concept for
- 6:14development of quality pharmaceutical
- 6:15products.
- 6:18Therefore, QBD is all about using
- 6:20scientific knowledge for product and
- 6:22process understanding,
- 6:24thus designing a product and process
- 6:26control in such a manner to achieve high
- 6:29quality product.
- 6:31Now, this is a comparative table that
- 6:33explains in depth how QBD differs from
- 6:36traditional process.
- 6:37In traditional approach, it starts with
- 6:39trial and error, whereas QBD is
- 6:42completely planned. It starts with a
- 6:45predefined objective.
- 6:47Traditional, the quality is assured by
- 6:49end product testing and inspection.
- 6:52Whereas in QBD, the quality is built in
- 6:55the into the product and process by
- 6:57designing.
- 6:58In traditional,
- 7:00it is a very rigid process. It
- 7:01discourage any kind of changes. QBD on
- 7:04the other hand is a very flexible
- 7:06process. It allows continuous
- 7:08improvement.
- 7:10Traditional, it focuses on
- 7:12reproducibility.
- 7:13It often ignores or avoids variation.
- 7:17QBD, it focuses on robustness, that
- 7:19means more quality, understanding and
- 7:22controlling variation.
- 7:25Traditional, there is a limited
- 7:26understanding of process or critical
- 7:28process parameters. QBD, it emphasizes
- 7:32on product and process understanding
- 7:33using scientific knowledge.
- 7:37So, QBD approach, it has several
- 7:39benefits to the industry like better
- 7:41understanding of the process.
- 7:43It minimize the deviations, less batch
- 7:45failure,
- 7:47more efficient and effective control of
- 7:49change.
- 7:50Thus, we can avoid the regulatory
- 7:51compliance problem, increase the
- 7:54manufacturing efficiency, and that leads
- 7:57to more cost saving, cost-effective, and
- 8:00more quality products.
- 8:02Additional benefits in they include such
- 8:05as reduction of post-approval
- 8:06submissions,
- 8:08more efficient technology transfer to
- 8:09the manufacturing,
- 8:11innovative process validation
- 8:13approaches,
- 8:14quality risk assessment and management,
- 8:17and reduced end product testing.
- 8:20Several QBD applications are like drug
- 8:23substance development, analytical
- 8:25development, formulation development,
- 8:28pharmaceutical manufacturing,
- 8:30bioequivalence studies, and clinical
- 8:32trials. Thus, QBD is a very important
- 8:36tool when it comes to pharmaceutical
- 8:37industries and good product, that is
- 8:40quality product manufacturing.
