- 28. Confidential28 Misconception about QbD (1) QbD Systemic development with predetermine objective for quality product QbD contains DoE No software mandatory to establish QbD DoE Statistical technique used in interpreting sets of experiments aimed at making sound decisions DoE may be part of QbD DoE is implemented using statistical software program Conclusion : QbD and DoE are not interchangeable terminologies.
- 29. Confidential29 Misconception about QbD (2) QTPP Desired target for developmental work Components of QTPP may or may not be in specification Not in spec – Dosage form, strength In spec – Assay, impurities Does not include acceptance criteria Specifications Includes all CQAs Specification is a list of - tests, - references to analytical procedures - acceptance criteria Establishes the set of criteria to which DP should conform to be considered acceptable for its intended use Conclusion : Defining a QTPP does not mean setting all acceptance criteria or the product specifications before development work begin.

- 42. Confidential42 Process Optimization Process optimization planned based on knowledge of – 1.Scale dependent equipment/Process parameter 2.Scale independent equipment/Process parameter If R&D scale and commercial scale equipment have same mechanism, same geometry and scalable based on scientific basis, then process optimization batches can be performed in R&D scale equipment. If not, then process optimization batches will be performed in commercial scale equipment.

- 58. Confidential58 Conclusion QbD is the effective tool, should be implement from the initial stage of the product development independent of target market. Discuss QbD scheme with manufacturing team to achieve aim of QbD and keep future projection to avoid regulatory queries and post approval changes/Variation. DoE is not mandatory for QbD based submission. Try to cover maximum range of formulation and process variables during optimization study to make fastest and cost-effective post approval changes/Variation.
