International Council for Harmonisation’s (ICH) guideline entitled, “Technical and Regulatory Considerations for Pharmaceutical Product Lifecycle Management” (ICH Q12) provides a framework to facilitate the management of post-approval Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) changes in a more predictable and efficient manner across the product lifecycle. Implementation of ICH’s Q12 Guideline will promote innovation and continual improvement in the biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical sectors and strengthen quality assurance and reliable supply of product, including proactive planning of supply chain management. It will allow regulators (assessors and inspectors) to better understand the firm’s Pharmaceutical Quality Systems (PQSs) for the management of post-approval CMC changes.
