EMA发布无菌生产工艺用无菌内包材所需数据问答
The European Medicines Agency, EMA, recently published questions and answers on quality of packaging materials (H+V April 2016):
EMA最近发布了关于包材质量的问答（H+V 2016年4月）。
"3. What data is required for sterilisation processes of primary packaging materials subsequently used in an aseptic manufacturing process? 用于无菌生产工艺中的内包材的无菌工艺需要什么数据？
Terminal sterilisation of the primary packaging, used subsequently during aseptic processing of the finished product, is a critical process and the sterility of the primary container is a critical quality attribute to ensure the sterility of the finished product. Both need to be assured for compliance with relevant Pharmacopoeial requirements for the finished product and product approval.
The site where sterilisation of the packaging materials takes place may not have undergone inspection by an EU authority and consequently may not hold an EU GMP certificate in relation to this activity1. When GMP certification is not available, certification that the sterilisation has been conducted and validated in accordance with the following ISO standards would be considered to provide an acceptable level of sterility assurance for the empty primary container:

EN ISO 11137-3:2006 卫生产品灭菌—辐射---第2部分：剂量测定法指南 It is the responsibility of the user of the manufacturer of the medicinal product, to ensure the quality, including sterility assurance, of packaging materials. The site where QP certification of the finished product takes place, and other manufacturing sites which are responsible for outsourcing this sterilisation activity, should have access to the necessary information to demonstrate the ongoing qualification status of suppliers of this sterilisation service. This should be checked during inspections. The Competent Authorities may also decide, based on risk, to carry out their own inspections at the sites where such sterilisation activities take place.
The following details regarding the sterilisation of the packaging components should be included in the dossier:
以下关于包装部件的无菌操作应包括在文档中：
1. The sterilisation method and sterilisation cycle;
无菌处理方法和无菌工艺周期
2. Validation of the sterilisation cycle if the sterilisation cycle does not use the reference conditions stated in the Ph. Eur.;
如果无菌工艺没有使用EP里声明的参考条件，则需要提交无菌工艺验证
3. The name and address of the site of sterilisation and, where available details of GMP certification of the site. Where the component is a CE-marked Class Is sterile device (e.g. sterile syringe), confirmation from the manufacturer that the component is a Class Is sterile device, together with a copy of the declaration of conformity from the Notified Body will suffice.
In the absence of GMP certification or confirmation that the component is a CE-marked Class Is medical device, certification that the sterilisation process has been conducted and validated in accordance with the relevant ISO standards should be provided.
________________________________________ 1Sites located in the EU which perform sterilisation of primary packaging components only are not required to hold a Manufacturer's/Importer's Authorisation (MIA). Sites located in the EU, which carry out sterilisation of medicinal products, are required to hold a MIA in relation to these activities."
