未知杂质符合M7,但不符合Q3是否可以初步判定对患者安全没有影响呢?
QA临床研究


我们一个产品,几个未知杂质,绝对量比较小,符合M7中的要求根据周期,给药量小于120微克/天,20微克/天,10微克/天,1.5微克/天,但是呢不符合Q3的要求,超标了比如未知杂质小于等于1.0%。
那么,这个时候,可以直接说对患者安全没有影响吗?

如果一个产品中有几个未知的杂质,绝对量相对较小,在M7的要求下,按周期给药,每天剂量分别为不超过120μg/d、20μg/d、10μg/d和1.5μg/d,但不满足Q3的要求,即未知杂质小于或等于1.0%的限制。那么,我们能否说这对患者的安全没有影响?

根据提供的信息,该产品的杂质不满足Q3的限制,这可能会对患者的安全造成潜在影响。因此,不能简单地认为该产品对患者的安全没有影响。需要对杂质进行更详细的评估,并按照相关法规制定合适的限值。[1][3][4]

需要通过毒理界定

不能直接说对患者安全没有影响。虽然根据M7指南,未知杂质的限量可以满足该产品的给药量限制,但是如果超出了Q3中的要求,说明该产品的纯度没有达到要求,存在一定的不确定性和潜在风险。

因此,需要对该产品的未知杂质进行深入的风险评估和安全性评估,以确定是否对患者安全产生影响。这些评估需要综合考虑多种因素,例如:

  • 该未知杂质的性质和来源,以及可能产生的不良影响;
  • 产品的剂量和给药途径,以及该未知杂质在患者体内的代谢和排泄情况;
  • 目标人群的特点,例如年龄、性别、基础疾病、用药史等因素。

根据评估结果,可以确定是否需要采取进一步的措施,例如优化生产工艺、加强质量控制、调整用药方案等,以确保患者的安全性。因此,在任何情况下,都应该对未知杂质进行充分的评估,并采取适当的措施,以确保产品的质量和患者的安全。

无法直接断言该产品对患者的安全性是否有影响,需要综合考虑多种因素。

虽然几个未知杂质的绝对量比较小且符合ICH M7中的要求,但其超过了ICH Q3中规定的未知杂质限制,可能会引起一定的担忧。首先需要评估这些未知杂质在体内的药理学活性、毒性和代谢途径等,并结合给药剂量和周期,进行安全性风险评估。

此外,还需要考虑其他因素,例如该产品的治疗效果和临床必要性、患者特殊情况(如年龄、性别、病史等)以及可用的治疗替代方案等。综合考虑这些因素后,才能得出针对该产品对患者的安全性是否有影响的结论。

建议在进行上述评估和判断时,应该遵循相关的法规和标准,确保该产品在严格的质量控制下使用,并尽可能减少任何与患者安全性相关的风险。

M7的范围是“关注焦点为较低水平即可直接造成DNA损伤,进而导致DNA突变,因此可能引发癌症的DNA反应性物质“

ICH Q3B是针对降解杂质

二者有交叉的话是需要同时满足的
