Risk Assessment of Genotoxic Impurities in New Chemical Entities: Strategies To Demonstrate Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
The control of genotoxic impurities (GTIs) is a crucial activity that is performed for any new chemical entity intended for clinical use. A key element of this is the quality risk assessment. This article seeks to examine the primary components of such a strategy, focusing specifically on the effective use of in silico assessment tools to augment this process, in particular the calculation of theoretical purge factors based on the physicochemical properties of a specific GTI and its interrelationship to the process.

متن کاملA rationale for determining, testing, and controlling specific impurities in pharmaceuticals that possess potential for genotoxicity.
The synthesis of pharmaceutical products frequently involves the use of reactive reagents and the formation of intermediates and by-products. Low levels of some of these may be present in the final drug substance and drug product as impurities. Such chemically reactive impurities may have at the same time the potential for unwanted toxicities including genotoxicity and carcinogenicity and hence...
متن کاملDrug Substance and Drug Product Impurities, Now what?
An unidentified peak in a drug substance or drug product chromatogram raises many questions. What is the impurity? What is the source of the impurity? How much impurity is there? Can the impurity level be reduced or eliminated? Is the impurity toxic? What do we do now? The answers to these questions are typically provided by scientists in chemistry, manufacturing and controls (CMC) and nonclini...
