Statistics and Process Validation: current Findings of the FDA

January 8, 2016 3:36 am / Leave a comment

The “new” FDA’s process validation guideline has been effective since January 2011. One considerable change was made to the original validation guideline from 1987 to put a significantly greater emphasis on statistics in the context of process validation. So far, relatively few inspection deficiencies had been observed by the FDA with regard to statistics. At a conference in September 2015 co-sponsored by the FDA, Grace McNally – Senior FDA official – reported about current “findings” in the 483s deficiency reports and in Establishment Inspection Reports (EIR). Now, deficiencies regarding statistical problematics can also be found here.

For example, it has been criticised that a (statistical) sampling plan had be misinterpreted. Wrong AQL values with regard to the number of samples have been noted based on MIL-STD-105D. Moreover, it has been criticised that the company didn’t know the operation characteristics of its sampling plan.

Another criticised “finding” was that PPQ batches had been considered as “accepted” when all in-process controls and release specifications were met. It has also been criticised that no intra-batch variabilities have been examined. In addition, it has been noticed that there was no information available in the validation plan concerning the assessment of the process itself. There was also no indication about the objective of the determination of inter-batch variabilities.

Although OOS results had been found in 2 out of 4 PPQ batches, reduced IPC tests have been recommended in the PPQ report giving the justification that this was a standard procedure. Regarding this point, the FDA criticises the lack of scientific rationales for reduced sampling and monitoring. Interestingly, Grace McNally mentions possibilities for rationales of IPC sampling plans and the adaptation to a reduced size. In this context, she refers to the ANSI/ASQ Z1.4 norm and ISO 2859 whereby it is expressly pointed out that the ANSI norm recommends the production of at least 10 successful batches before reducing testing. According to the ISO norm even 15 successful batches are necessary.

The FDA notified a tablet process, criticising the fact that no rationales for warning and action limits were available. Furthermore, it has been criticised that no analyses on variabilities were available although they had been required internally and no capacity indices had been determined. There have been no analyses on the distribution of data, neither planned nor performed. The FDA also remarked that the calculation of variabilities is necessary to be able to make statements about process capacities.

Conclusion: Reinforcing the emphasis on statistics in the US FDA Process Validation Guideline from 2011 hasn’t been really often addressed in the official deficiencies reports. This seems to be changing.

FDA gives Advice on the Use of Control Charts

In our News entitled “Statistics and Process Validation: current Findings of the FDA“, we pointed out that the FDA has been observing more and more deficiencies in the area of statistics with regard to process validation. One of the “statistical methods” – also stated in FDA’s Process Validation Guidance – is the use of control charts in the context of a statistical process control (SPC). A SPC can be a valuable resource, particularly in stage 3 of the process validation lifecycle (continued/ongoing process verification).

During an event with the Product Quality Research Institute (PQRI), Dr Daniel Peng from CDER’s Office of Processes and Facilities (OPF) presented his views on the use of SPC under the heading “Using Control Charts to Evaluate Process Variability”. He began with the history of control charts and their fields of application. He furthermore considered the most important rules to create and manage control charts, including types of control charts, sampling and evaluation rules according to the Western Electric Rules.

He concluded his presentation with examples of control charts for evaluating intra and inter-batch variabilities and site performance monitoring.

The slides of the presentation “Using Control Charts to Evaluate Process Variability” are very easy to read and available for free.

Are you interested in SPC and control charts? On 18/19 February, the ECA organises the Education Course “Statistical Process Control – A key tool for process understanding in the process validation life cycle” in Heidelberg, Germany.

PAPER

Image for unlabelled figure

The synthesis, SAR, and preclinical characterization of a series of substituted 6,7-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3]pyrazin-8(5H)-one P2X7 receptor antagonists are described. Optimized leads from this series comprise some of the most potent human P2X7R antagonists reported to date (IC₅₀s < 1 nM). They also exhibit sufficient potency and oral bioavailability in rat to enable extensive in vivo profiling. Although many of the disclosed compounds are peripherally restricted, compound 11d is brain penetrant and upon oral administration demonstrated dose-dependent target engagement in rat hippocampus as determined by ex vivo receptor occupancy with radiotracer 5 (ED₅₀ = 0.8 mg/kg).

This compound has been obtained by two different ways: 1) The oxidation of 4′-amino-3′-chloroacetophenone (I) with NaNO2 and HCl in water gives 3′-chloro-4-nitroacetophenone (II), which is condensed with 2,4-difluorophenol (III) by means of K2CO3 in xylene yielding 3′-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-4′-nitroacetophenone (IV). The reduction of (IV) with Fe and NH4Cl in ethanol affords the corresponding 4′-amino compound (V), which is finally treated with methanesulfonyl chloride and pyridine. 2) The reaction of 4′-aminoacetophenone (VI) with methanesulfonyl chloride as before gives the corresponding sulfonamide (VII), which is brominated with Br2 in acetic acid yielding N-(4-acetyl-3-bromophenyl)methanesulfonamide (VIII). Finally, this compound is condensed with 2,4-difluorophenol (III) by means of K2CO3 and CuCl as before.

Using the collective body of known (CETP) inhibitors as inspiration for design, a structurally novel series of tetrahydroquinoxaline CETP inhibitors were discovered. An exemplar from this series, compound 5, displayed potent in vitro CETP inhibition and was efficacious in a transgenic cynomologus-CETP mouse HDL PD (pharmacodynamic) assay. However, an undesirable metabolic profile and chemical instability hampered further development of the series. A three-dimensional structure of tetrahydroquinoxaline inhibitor 6 was proposed from ¹H NMR structural studies, and this model was then used in silico for the design of a new class of compounds based upon an indoline scaffold. This work resulted in the discovery of compound 7, which displayed potent in vitro CETP inhibition, a favorable PK–PD profile relative to tetrahydroquinoxaline 5, and dose-dependent efficacy in the transgenic cynomologus-CETP mouse HDL PD assay.

chemical compounds that inhibit cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) and are expected to have utility in raising HDL-C, lowering LDL-C, and in the treatment and prevention of atherosclerosis.

Atherosclerosis and its clinical consequences, including coronary heart disease

(CHD), stroke and peripheral vascular disease, represent a truly enormous burden to the health care systems of the industrialized world. In the United States alone, approximately 13 million patients have been diagnosed with CHD, and greater than one half million deaths are attributed to CHD each year. Further, this toll is expected to grow over the next quarter century as an epidemic in obesity and diabetes continues to grow.

It has long been recognized that in mammals, variations in circulating lipoprotein profiles correlate with the risk of atherosclerosis and CHD. The clinical success of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, especially the statins, in reducing coronary events is based on the reduction of circulating low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), levels of which correlate directly with an increased risk for atherosclerosis. More recently, epidemiologic studies have

demonstrated an inverse relationship between high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and atherosclerosis, leading to the conclusion that low serum HDL-C levels are associated with an increased risk for CHD.

Metabolic control of lipoprotein levels is a complex and dynamic process involving many factors. One important metabolic control in man is the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), a plasma glycoprotein that catalyzes the movement of cholesteryl esters from HDL to the apoB containing lipoproteins, especially VLDL (see Hesler, C.B., et. al. (1987) Purification and characterization of human plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein. J. Biol. Chem. 262(5), 2275-2282)). Under physiological conditions, the net reaction is a heteroexchange in which CETP carries triglyceride to HDL from the apoB lipoprotein and transports cholesterol ester from HDL to the apoB lipoprotein.

In humans, CETP plays a role in reverse cholesterol transport, the process whereby cholesterol is returned to the liver from peripheral tissues. Intriguingly, many animals do not possess CETP, including animals that have high HDL levels and are known to be resistant to coronary heart disease, such as rodents (see Guyard-Dangremont, V., et. al, (1998)

Phospholipid and cholesteryl ester transfer activities in plasma from 14 vertebrate species. Relation to atherogenesis susceptibility, Comp. Biochem. Physiol. B Biochem. Mol. Biol. 120(3), 517-525). Numerous epidemiologic studies correlating the effects of natural variation in CETP activity with respect to coronary heart disease risk have been performed, including studies on a small number of known human null mutations (see Hirano, K.-L, Yamashita, S. and Matsuzawa, Y. (2000) Pros and cons of inhibiting cholesteryl ester transfer protein, Curr. Opin. Lipidol. 11(6), 589-596). These studies have clearly demonstrated an inverse correlation between plasma HDL-C concentration and CETP activity (see Inazu, A., et. al. (2000) Cholesteryl ester transfer protein and atherosclerosis, Curr. Opin. Lipidol. 11(4), 389-396), leading to the hypothesis that pharmacologic inhibition of CETP lipid transfer activity may be beneficial to humans by increasing levels of HDL-C while lowering LDL-C.

Despite the significant therapeutic advance that statins such as simvastatin and atorvastatin represent, statins only achieve a risk reduction of approximately one-third in the treatment and prevention of atherosclerosis and ensuing atherosclerotic disease events.

Currently, few pharmacologic therapies are available that favorably raise circulating levels of HDL-C. Certain statins and some fibrates offer modest HDL-C gains. Niacin provides an effective therapy for raising HDL-C but suffers from patient compliance issues, due in part to side effects such as flushing. Drugs that inhibit CETP (CETP inhibitors) have been under development with the expectation that they will effectively raise HDL cholesterol levels and also reduce the incidence of atherosclerosis in patients. Torcetrapib was the first drug that was tested in a long-term outcomes clinical trial. The clinical trial of torcetrapib was terminated early due to a higher incidence of mortality in patients to whom torcetrapib and atorvastatin were administered concomitantly compared with patients who were treated with atorvastatin alone. The cause of the increased mortality is not completely understood, but it is not believed to be associated with the CETP inhibiting effects of the drug.

Two other drug candidates, dalcetrapib and anacetrapib, are currently being tested in Phase III clinical trials, including large scale outcomes trials. Data from the recently completed DEFINE Phase III trial of anacetrapib are promising. Patients who were being treated with anacetrapib along with baseline statin therapy showed an increase of HDL-C of 138% and a decrease of LDL-C of 40%> compared with patients who were treated with just a statin. See: N. Engl. J. Med. 2010: 363: 2406-15. The data in the DEFINE trial were sufficient to indicate that an increase in mortality for patients treated with anacetrapib is unlikely. Additional drug candidates are still being sought that may have properties that are advantageous compared with the CETP inhibitors that have so far been studied or are currently being studied. Such properties may include, for example, higher potency, reduced off-target activity, better pharmacodynamics, higher bioavailability, or a reduced food effect compared with many of the highly lipophilic compounds that have so far been studied. “Food effect” refers to the variability in exposure to the active drug that occurs depending on when the patient had last eaten, whether or not the drug is administered with food, and the fat content of the food.

Flow Chemistry: Recent Developments in the Synthesis of Pharmaceutical Products

January 5, 2016 12:59 pm / Leave a comment

Recently, application of the flow technologies for the preparation of fine chemicals, such as natural products or Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs), has become very popular, especially in academia. Although pharma industry still relies on multipurpose batch or semibatch reactors, it is evident that interest is arising toward continuous flow manufacturing of organic molecules, including highly functionalized and chiral compounds. Continuous flow synthetic methodologies can also be easily combined to other enabling technologies, such as microwave irradiation, supported reagents or catalysts, photochemistry, inductive heating, electrochemistry, new solvent systems, 3D printing, or microreactor technology. This combination could allow the development of fully automated process with an increased efficiency and, in many cases, improved sustainability. It has been also demonstrated that a safer manufacturing of organic intermediates and APIs could be obtained under continuous flow conditions, where some synthetic steps that were not permitted for safety reasons can be performed with minimum risk. In this review we focused our attention only on very recent advances in the continuous flow multistep synthesis of organic molecules which found application as APIs, especially highlighting the contributions described in the literature from 2013 to 2015, including very recent examples not reported in any published review. Without claiming to be complete, we will give a general overview of different approaches, technologies, and synthetic strategies used so far, thus hoping to contribute to minimize the gap between academic research and pharmaceutical manufacturing. A general outlook about a quite young and relatively unexplored field of research, like stereoselective organocatalysis under flow conditions, will be also presented, and most significant examples will be described; our purpose is to illustrate all of the potentialities of continuous flow organocatalysis and offer a starting point to develop new methodologies for the synthesis of chiral drugs. Finally, some considerations on the perspectives and the possible, expected developments in the field are briefly discussed.

Two examples out of several in the publication discussed below……………

1 Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride

Scheme 1. Continuous Flow Synthesis of Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride

Diphenhydramine hydrochloride is the active pharmaceutical ingredient in several widely used medications (e.g., Benadryl, Zzzquil, Tylenol PM, Unisom), and its worldwide demand is higher than 100 tons/year.

In 2013, Jamison and co-workers developed a continuous flow process for the synthesis of 3minimizing waste and reducing purification steps and production time with respect to existing batch synthetic routes (Scheme 1). In the optimized process, chlorodiphenylmethane 1 and dimethylethanolamine 2 were mixed neat and pumped into a 720 μL PFA tube reactor (i.d. = 0.5 mm) at 175 °C with a residence time of 16 min. Running the reaction above the boiling point of 2and without any solvent resulted in high reaction rate. Product 3, obtained in the form of molten salt (i.e., above the melting point of the salt), could be easily transported in the flow system, a procedure not feasible on the same scale under batch conditions.

The reactor outcome was then combined with preheated NaOH 3 M to neutralize ammonium salts. After quenching, neutralized tertiary amine was extracted with hexanes into an inline membrane separator. The organic layer was then treated with HCl (5 M solution in iPrOH) in order to precipitate diphenhydramine hydrochloride 3 with an overall yield of 90% and an output of 2.4 g/h.

2 Olanzapine

Scheme 2. Continuous Flow Synthesis of Olanzapine

Atypical antipsychotic drugs differ from classical antipsychotics because of less side effects caused (e.g., involuntary tremors, body rigidity, and extrapyramidal effects). Among atypical ones, olanzapine 10, marketed with the name of Zyprexa, is used for the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar disorders.

In 2013 Kirschning and co-workers developed the multistep continuous flow synthesis of olanzapine 10 using inductive heating (IH) as enabling technology to dramatically reduce reaction times and to increase process efficiency.(16) Inductive heating is a nonconventional heating technology based on the induction of an electromagnetic field (at medium or high frequency depending on nanoparticle sizes) to magnetic nanoparticles which result in a very rapid increase of temperature.As depicted in Scheme 2 the first synthetic step consisted of coupling aryl iodide 4 and aminothiazole 5 using Pd₂dba₃ as catalyst and Xantphos as ligand. Buchwald–Hartwig coupling took place inside a PEEK reactor filled with steel beads (0.8 mm) and heated inductively at 50 °C (15 kHz). AcOEt was chosen as solvent since it was compatible with following reaction steps. After quenching with distilled H₂O and upon in-line extraction in a glass column, crude mixture was passed through a silica cartridge in order to remove Pd catalyst. Nitroaromatic compound 6 was then subjected to reduction with Et₃SiH into a fixed bed reactor containing Pd/C at 40 °C. Aniline 7 was obtained in nearly quantitative yield, and the catalyst could be used for more than 250 h without loss of activity. The reactor outcome was then mixed with HCl (0.6 M methanol solution) and heated under high frequency (800 kHz) at 140 °C. Acid catalyzed cyclization afforded product 8 with an overall yield of 88%. Remarkably, the three step sequence did not require any solvent switch, and the total reactor volume is about 8 mL only.

The final substitution of compound 8 with piperazine 9 was carried out using a 3 mL of PEEK reactor containing MAGSILICA as inductive material and silica-supported Ti(OiPr)₄ as Lewis acid. Heating inductively the reactor at 85 °C with a medium frequency (25 kHz) gave Olanzapine 10 in 83% yield.

for the potential treatment of COPD & sickle cell disease (SCD)

Adenosine A2b receptor antagonist

Advinus Therapeutics Ltd

KEEP WATCHING THIS POST……….

PNQ-103 is a proprietary A2B Adenosine receptor (A2BAdoR antagonist), currently in the pre-clinical development stage for the potential treatment of COPD & sickle cell disease (SCD). Advinus is looking for partnering/co-development opportunities.

A_2BAdenosine Receptor (A_2BAdoR) Antagonist PNQ-103 for COPD and SCD

COPD

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a disease that damages lung tissue or restricts airflow through the bronchioles and bronchi, and commonly leads to chronic bronchitis and emphysema. COPD, along with asthma, forms the third leading cause of death in both developed and developing countries and an annual direct and indirect cost of healthcare of more than $50 billion in the US alone. Current therapies suffer from lack of long term efficacy, patient compliance and a narrow therapeutic index.

Adenosine is a powerful bronchoconstrictor and pro-inflammatory agent in COPD and asthma. Adenosine regulates tissue function by activating its receptors: A₁AdoR and A_2AAdoR are high affinity receptors and A_2BAdoR and A₃AdoR are low affinity receptors. During pathological conditions in lung, local adenosine concentrations rise to high levels and activate A_2BAdoR. A_2BAdoR agonized by adenosine induces both bronchoconstriction and pro-inflammatory effects in lung by acting on multiple cell types that lead to airway hyperreactivity and chronic inflammation. Therefore, A_2BAdoR antagonists are expected to be beneficial in COPD and asthma.

PNQ-103 is a proprietary A_2BAdoR antagonist, currently in the pre-clinical development stage for the potential treatment of COPD. It is a potent, selective, orally bio-available agent with low clearance and small volume of distribution. PNQ-103 is efficacious in standard rodent asthma and lung fibrosis models. PNQ-103 was found to be safe in exploratory safety studies including a Drug Matrix Screen, mini-AMES test, and a test for cardiovascular liability in dog telemetry as well as a 30- day repeat dose study in rats.

SCD

Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) affects millions of people worldwide. It is caused by an autosomal mutation in the hemoglobin gene (substitution of amino-acid valine [Hb A] for glutamic acid [Hb S]. Hb S in low O2 condition polymerizes, leading to distortion of the cell membrane of red blood cells (RBC) into an elongated sickle shape. Sickled RBCs accumulate in capillaries causing occlusions, impair circulation and cause tissue damage and severe disabilities. Unfortunately, there is no targeted therapy for SCD.

Adenosine levels are elevated in SCD patients. Activation of the A_2BAdoR by adenosine increases 2,3-DPG levels in RBCs, which reduces Hb S affinity to O2 and promotes its polymerization leading to RBC sickling. A recent study published in Nature Medicine (2011; 17:79-86) demonstrated potential utility of an A_2BAdoR antagonist for the treatment of SCD, through selective inhibition of 2,3-DPG production in RBCs. Therefore, PNQ-103, a selective A_2BAdoR antagonist, is expected to be useful for the treatment of SCD. In support, ex vivo PoC (selective inhibition of 2,3-DPG production) has been established for PNQ-103 in RBCs from normal and SCD patients.

Adenosine A2b receptor antagonist

Advinus Therapeutics Ltd

KEEP WATCHING THIS POST……………

PNQ-201 is a proprietary orally active A2B Adenosine receptor (A2BAdoR) antagonist, currently in pre-clinical development for potential treatment of IBD. Advinus is looking for partnering/co-development opportunities.

A_2BAdenosine Receptor (A_2BAdoR) Antagonist PNQ-201 for IBD

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), which includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD), is a multifactorial disease of an etiology not fully understood. It includes chronic inflammation of the gut, characterized by dysfunction of mucosal immunity. Current oral therapies are ineffective, non-specific, and have significant adverse effects. As such, there is a large unmet medical need for the development of new and specific therapies for IBD.

Adenosine is a stimulator of pro-inflammatory effects in the gastro-intestinal tract. Adenosine regulates tissue function by activating its receptors: A₁AdoR and A_2AAdoR are high affinity receptors and A_2BAdoR and A₃AdoR are low affinity receptors. A_2BAdoR is highly expressed in cecum and colon, with expression increased even further in epithelial cells in human and murine colitis. A_2BAdoR, agonized by adenosine induces cytokine secretion at the mucosal surface, inflammatory cell infiltration into intestinal wall, focal crypt damage and ulceration. Therefore, A_2BAdoR antagonists are expected to be beneficial in IBD patients.

PNQ-201 is a proprietary orally active A_2BAdoR antagonist, currently in pre-clinical development for the potential treatment of IBD. PNQ-201 is a potent and selective A2B antagonist. It is selected for development on the basis of poor systemic bioavailability and high exposure in colon/cecum. Negligible systemic bioavailability and maximum exposure at the sites of action in the lower gastrointestinal tract is expected to offer maximum therapeutic benefits while minimizing potential side effects. PNQ-201 has shown a robust efficacy profile in standard models of IBD, namely, the mouse DSS-induced colitis model and the rat TNBS-induced colitis model. PNQ-201 was found to be safe in exploratory safety studies including a Drug Matrix Screen, mini-AMES test, and a 14- day repeat dose toxicology study in rats.
