This Thursday, CMA and a number of key manufacturing representatives are meeting with the TGA to identify questions or issues relating to the implementation of version 14 of the PIC/S Guide to GMP (PE009, the PICS/S guide to GMP for medicinal products).
Version 14 of the PIC/S Guide was adopted last year with a transition period, and full compliance will be expected from July 2021. As a general reminder, compliance expectations for the TGO 101 Section 16 - elemental impurities and residual solvents will also come into effect at this time.
If members have questions, issues or problems relating to the implementation of Version 14 PIC/S GMP, please email Lucy.Lang@cmaustralia.org.au by COB Wednesday. The process is to identify whether there is a need to modify any current TGA GMP guidance (to improve clarity) or to create any new TGA GMP guidance (if required) from an industry perspective.
