5. Post-market assessment of compliance
• TGO 101: tool to control risks that impact safety and efficacy:
– Improper dissolution leading to incorrect dosage being delivered;
– Solvent residues and elemental impurities leading to toxicity or allergic
reactions;
– Non-uniform dosage units leading to incorrect dosage being delivered; etc
• The design of the medicine (including initial stability data), together with its
overall risk control strategy and validation (including ongoing stability data) can
be used to demonstrate compliance with TGO 101
• Control of risks in the finished good must be demonstrated, but this may be via
– testing of the finished good or testing of raw materials, or
– By some other means so long as control of the risk in the finished good
can be demonstrated.

6. Post-market assessment of compliance
• Example: elemental impurities
– If testing is conducted at the raw material stage only
Evidence must be held to demonstrate that introduction of elemental
impurities into the finished goods subsequent to raw material
qualification will not occur to ensure compliance with Permitted Daily
Exposures (PDEs).
Introduction during manufacturing? Testing of solvents; Validation of
filtering or purification steps

7. Post-market assessment of compliance
• It is not expected that all of the tests set out in the TGO 101 must be
performed on all medicines, or on all batches of a medicine.
• It is up to the sponsor to demonstrate how the risks have been controlled
and therefore, compliance with TGO 101.
• Applicable monographs must be followed in full
• Sponsors cannot select tests and limits from different default standards to
create a unique testing protocol (i.e. no ‘cherry picking’)

Hinweis der Redaktion
78 was silent on general monographs;
In essence, ‘no applicable monograph’ here means no individual monograph;
Note ‘requirements’ vs ‘monograph‘
