Annual Product Quality Review (APQR/PQR/APR) Software

Every commercial product manufactured in the Pharmaceutical, API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) Manufacturers, Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO), Biotech, and Bio-sciences, Contract Research Organization (CRO) Industries undergo a Annual Product Quality Review (PQR). This requirement is published as the final current good manufacturing practices (CGMP) regulations for drug products (21 CFR 211.180(e), 21 CFR 211.180(e)). The PQR has largely been termed ‘Product Annual Review’ or the ‘Annual Product Review’ (APQR) by FDA and within the pharmaceutical industry. The products follow the established protocols of the US FDA with GMP standards, and they are distributed within the United States markets.

Annual Product Quality Review Software

The Annual Product Quality Review (APQR/PQR) was introduced as part of the GMP practices to provide manufacturers of pharmaceutical products with a set of reliable procedures. These procedures must be followed in reviewing the quality standards of every drug product. The content and management of Quality Product Reviews are to be established according to the regulatory requirements.

The Annual Product Review (APR) within pharmaceutical companies is therefore necessary for the verification of the consistency of the manufacturing procedures, examination of trends, identification of changes required in the specifications or the methods or production technique.

The guideline established in ICH Q7 2.5 Product Quality Review 2.50 states that regular quality reviews of APIs should be conducted to verify the consistency of the process. This is referred to by EU guidelines for Good Manufacturing Practice as PQR (Product Quality Review), and the processes adopted for Product Quality Review (PQR) are based on EU GMP standards.

Developed on LOW-CODE AND NO-CODE (LCNC) PLATFORM, AmpleLogic APQR/PQR Software captures information manually and collects information from other sources. It extracts this information by combining it with software systems that the company may utilize. LMS, QMS, BMS, and MES/eBMR are examples of these software systems. The Product Quality Review (PQR) System may also collect data from a range of different software systems and legacy products in your organization’s IT infrastructure.

Process Capability Analysis (cp, cpk, pp, ppk, cpv)

Cp, Cpk, Pp, and Ppk are the most commonly used process capability indices in process capability analysis.

Amplelogic Annual Product Review (APR) software, the tool helps in Process capability analysis by taking the data from the LIMS, EQMS, Batch Manufacturing Records. The tool applies statistical methods defined in R Language to calculate the Process capability indices like Cp, Cpk, Pp, and Ppk and marks the variations.

The Product Quality Review (PQR) Software Alers the Quality teams on Process Deviations for every batch that is entered/Captured.

Triggers immediate alarms whenever CP, CPK,PP, PPK values are less than 1, System alerts with Alarms as the Process is not capable of producing parts within the specification limits.

The process of continued process verification (CPV) involves the ongoing verification of a manufacturing process’s performance. Process validation life cycle, It make sure the process remains in a validated state throughout the routine manufacturing phase of a product’s life cycle. With Amplelogic PQR software R &D, Pharmaceutical, CDMO, CRO ‘s can monitor the performance on every batch it manufactured and ensures in meeting Six Sigma standards by continuously meeting established specifications to make sure producing high-quality products.

What is PPK?

Similar to PP, if the PPK (Process Performance with a centering factor) values are less than 1 it allows the user to access the entire data and allows the Analysts to do a detailed analysis for the challenges in addressing the Process challenges

Goodness-of-fitness Test: (GoF Test)

Goodness of fitness tests are statical test methods used to determine whether a set of observed values match those predicted or fitted by the model, applied in decision making.

Initially, normality is checked by some adherence test on the original data, and if normality is not found (Non-normal data) some type of transformation is applied to thses data sets and normality is checked again. If normality is still not found, can look for another distribution that fits in the data set. The most distributions used are

Normal transformation, Box-cox transformation, Log normal, 3- parameter log normal, Exponential, 2-parameter exponential, Weibull, 3-parameter Weibull, Smallest extreme value, Largest extreme value, Gamma,3-parameter gamma, Logistic, Loglogistic, 3-parameter log logistic
