本文件替代了FDA在1987年2月发布的另一份指南,以及替代了仿制药办公室在1995年6月30日向行业内发布的包装政策声明信。
本指南不描述药品的包装操作。
Approaches which differ from those described in this guidance may be followed, but theapplicant is encouraged to discuss significant variations in advance with the appropriate CDER chemistry review staff or CBER review staff. This is to prevent applicants or sponsors fromspending unnecessary time and effort in preparing a submission that the FDA may laterdetermine to be unacceptable. 可以采取与本指南的内容不一致的措施,但是我们建议申请人就明显的差异预先与CDER或CBER的审核人员进行讨论。
这样做的目的是为了避免申请人或发起人花费不必要的时间和努力准备申报资料,而这种申报资料经FDA认定是不可接受的。
II.BACKGROUND背景The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) mandates the need for adequateinformation related to packaging materials. Section 501(a)(3) of the Act states that a drug is deemed to be adulterated "if its container is composed, in whole or in part, of any poisonous or deleterious substance which may render the contents injurious to health...." In addition, section 502 of the Act states that a drug is considered misbranded if there are packaging omissions.Also, section 505 of the Act requires a full description of the methods used in, and the facilities and controls used for, the packaging of drugs (see Attachment A). 联邦食品、药品和化妆品法案(简称“法案”)要求必须提供包装材料的充分信息。
法案的第501(a)(3)部分规定,如果某个药品的包装材料含有有毒、有害的物质,导致药品损坏健康,那么该药品为劣药。
另外,法案的第502部分规定,如果某药品在包装方面有缺失,则被认为是贴错标签。
还有,法案第505部分要求详细描述包装药品时所用的方法,所用的设施和控制措施(见附件A)。
Section 505(b)(1)(D) of the Act states that an application shall include a full description of the methods used in, the manufacturing, processing and packing of such drug. This includesfacilities and controls used in the packaging a drug product. 法案的第505(b)(1)(D)部分规定,申请人必须完整描述该药品的生产、加工和包装。
其中包括包装药品时的设施和控制措施。
A. Definitions5定义Materials of construction6 refer to the substances (e.g., glass, high density polyethylene(HDPE) resin, metal) used to manufacture a packaging component. 组成材料是指用来生产包装组件的物质(例如玻璃,HDPE树脂,金属)A packaging component means any single part of a container closure system. Typicalcomponents are containers (e.g., ampules, vials, bottles), container liners (e.g., tubeliners), closures (e.g., screw caps, stoppers), closure liners, stopper overseals,container inner seals, administration ports (e.g., on large-volume parenterals (LVPs)),overwraps, administration accessories, and container labels. A primary packagingcomponent means a packaging component that is or may be in direct contact with thedosage form. A secondary packaging component means a packaging component that isnot and will not be in direct contact with the dosage form. 包装组件是指一个容器/封装系统的任何单独部分。
