performance of the drug product and its
manufacturability, or were specifically designed into
the drug substance (e.g., solid state properties), should
be identified and discussed.
• Excipients: The excipients chosen, their concentration,
and the characteristics that can influence the drug
product performance (e.g., stability, bioavailability) or
manufacturability should be discussed relative to the
respective function of each excipient.

1. Selection of Variables
• A description should be provided in the application of
the process parameters and material attributes
considered for the design space, those that were
included, and their effect on product quality.
• The rationale for inclusion in the design space should
be presented.
• In some cases, it is helpful to provide also the
rationale as to why some parameters were excluded.
• Knowledge gained from studies should be described
in the submission.

2. Describing a Design Space in a
Submission
• A design space can be described in terms of ranges of
material attributes and process parameters, or through
more complex mathematical relationships.
• It is possible to describe a design space as a time
dependent function (e.g., temperature and pressure
cycle of a lyophilisation cycle), or as a combination of
variables such as components of a multivariate model.
• Scaling factors can also be included if the design space
is intended to span multiple operational scales.
• Analysis of historical data can contribute to the
establishment of a design space.

3. Unit Operation Design Space(s)
• The applicant can choose to establish
independent design spaces for one or more unit
operations, or to establish a single design
space that spans multiple operations.
• While a separate design space for each unit
operation is often simpler to develop, a design
space that spans the entire process can provide
more operational flexibility.

4. Relationship of Design Space to
Scale and Equipment
• When describing a design space, the applicant should consider
the type of operational flexibility desired.
• A design space can be developed at any scale.
• The applicant should justify the relevance of a design space
developed at small or pilot scale to the proposed production
scale manufacturing process and discuss the potential risks in
the scale-up operation.
• If the applicant proposes the design space to be applicable to
multiple operational scales, the design space should be
described in terms of relevant scale-independent parameters.
• Dimensionless numbers and/or models for scaling can be
included as part of the design space description.

5. Design Space Versus Proven
Acceptable Ranges
• A combination of proven acceptable ranges
does not constitute a design space.
• However, proven acceptable ranges based on
univariate experimentation can provide useful
knowledge about the process.

6. Design Space and Edge of Failure
• It can be helpful to determine the edge of failure for
process parameters or material attributes, beyond
which the relevant quality attributes cannot be met.
• However, determining the edge of failure or
demonstrating failure modes are not essential parts of
establishing a design space.

• Quality Risk Management and Product and Process
Development
• Design Space
• Control Strategy
• Drug Substance Related Information

Quality Risk Management and Product
and Process Development (3.1)
• Quality risk management can be used at different stages
during product and process development and
manufacturing implementation.
• The assessments used to guide and justify development
decisions can be included in the relevant sections of P.2.
• For example, risk analyses and functional relationships
linking material attributes and process parameters to
product CQAs can be included in P.2.1, P.2.2, and P.2.3.
• Risk analyses linking the design of the manufacturing
process to product quality can be included in P.2.3.

Design Space (3.2)
• As an element of the proposed manufacturing process, the design space(s)
can be described in the section of the application that includes the
description of the manufacturing process and process controls (P.3.3).
• If appropriate, additional information can be provided in the section of the
application that addresses the controls of critical steps and intermediates
(P.3.4).
• The product and manufacturing process development sections of the
application (P.2.1, P.2.2, and P.2.3) are appropriate places to summarize and
describe product and process development studies that provide the basis for
the design space(s).
• The relationship of the design space(s) to the overall control strategy can be
discussed in the section of the application that includes the justification of
the drug product specification (P.5.6).

Control Strategy (3.3)
• The section of the application that includes the
justification of the drug product specification
(P.5.6) is a good place to summarize the overall
drug product control strategy.
• However, detailed information about input
material controls and process controls should still
be provided in the appropriate CTD format
sections (e.g., drug substance section (S), control
of excipients (P.4), description of manufacturing
process and process controls (P.3.3), controls of
critical steps and intermediates (P.3.4)).

Drug Substance Related Information (3.4)
• If drug substance CQAs have the potential to affect
the CQAs or manufacturing process of the drug
product, some discussion of drug substance CQAs
can be appropriate in the pharmaceutical development
section of the application (e.g., P.2.1).

Benefits of QbD
• Better understanding of the process.
• Less batch failure.
• More efficient and effective control of change.
• Return on investment / cost savings.

• Cost Reduction
• Reduced inventories
• Less waste
• Higher yields
• Increased process understanding resulting in more efficient production
processes
• Faster process development, upscaling and tech transfer
• Regulatory flexibility, relief and easier regulatory approach
• Improved clinical outcome quality
• Easy Technology Transfer

Manufacturing changes within the approved design space
• Reduction of post-approval submissions.
• Better innovation due to the ability to improve processes without
resubmission to the FDA when remaining in the Design Space.
• More efficient technology transfer to manufacturing.
• Greater regulator confidence of robust products.
• Risk-based approach and identification.
• Innovative process validation approaches.
• Less intense regulatory oversight and less post-approval
submissions.
• For the consumer, greater drug consistency.
• More drug availability and less recall.

Manufacturing changes within the approved design space
• Improved yields, lower cost, less investigations, reduced testing, etc.
• Time to market reductions: from 12 to 6 years realized by amongst
others.
• First time right: lean assets management.
• Continuous improvement over the total product life cycle (i.e.
controlled, patient guided variability).
• Absence of design freeze (no variation issues).
• Less validation burden.
• Real time controls (less batch controls).
• Realistic risk perceptions.
• Contributes substantially to realize the better, cheaper and safer
mandate.

QbD activities within FDA
• In FDA’s Office of New Drug Quality Assessment
(ONDQA), a new risk-based pharmaceutical quality
assessment system (PQAS) was established based on the
application of product and process understanding.
• Implementation of a Question-based Review (QbR)
Process has occurred in CDER’s Office of Generic Drugs.
• Implementation of QbD for a Biologic License
Application (BLA) is progressing.

International Conference on
Harmonization (ICH)
• Pharmaceutical Development Q8 (R2)
• Quality Risk Management Q9
• Pharmaceutical Quality System Q10 (Science-
based and risk- based approaches)

International Conference on
Harmonization (ICH)
• The difference between QbD for NDA and
ANDA products is most apparent at the first
step of the process.
• For an NDA, the target product profile is under
development while for the ANDA product the
target product profile is well established by the
labelling and clinical studies conducted to
support the approval of the reference product.
