ICH Q1E
• Required analysis for setting specifications• Statistical details• BUT what does the analysis tell us?
• The more data, the narrower the interval on the regression line, the longer the dating.
• Assuming common slopes, the analysis provides an average change for a PRODUCT.

Estimate of Dating with More Data
• Dating is now 24 months.• (Assuming common slopes.)• Slope represents average
change across batches.• Batches are a random
sample from product.
• Slope represents average change for the PRODUCT.

Decreasing Property
• AND, we already know some batch results are likely to be outside of spec.• Observed• Projected
6
Why Do ICH Q1E?
• Batches are released and evaluated individually.• Individual results must meet specs.
• Dating/specifications need to apply to actual test results.• ICH Q1E does not provide analysis for individual results.• ICH Q1E does not consider additional circumstances
that can cause molecule to degrade.• Shipping• Patient/customer use

Release buffer: normal change & variability, assay variability, and in-use change
Multi-use products
11
In-Use Change
• Can be large• Potentially fewer batches for analysis• Can have a different change model than routine
stability
12
Statistics are “easy”
• Determine routine and in-use models• Linear• Quadratic• Nonlinear
• Determine estimates of variability• Model• Assay
• Adjust release buffer(s)
Non-statistical questions are “hard.”
13
Today’s Topics
• Modeling in-use change1. Complexity of complete statistical model and
impact on business
2. Significance of in-use change
3. Correlation of results
4. Groups
5. Proxy data• Other uncontrolled conditions
14
#1 Analysis Impact to Business
• One-time or yearly studies?• Requirement is often upon registration
• “Fresh” batch• “Aged” batch
• There may be no regulatory requirement to generate data yearly
• One-time estimate or yearly update?• Implications are to WHO does stat analysis
WHEN and HOW.• One complicated model• Two easier models
15
#2 Significance of Change
• Change estimates• Errors can be high depending on assay
• Is change significant?• Include estimate of change variability?
16
#2 Significance of Change
• Assay variability is included in buffer for long term stability change. Is it “double counting” to include it for in-use change?
• Is there “room” within the specifications?

#3 Correlation in Results
• Multiple batches can be manufactured close together in time (e.g., validation batches, special studies).
• Timepoints to be assayed are close together.• Lab wants to maximize resources.
• Hold samples• Test them together
• Common timepoints across batches are put on same assay run.
Testing batches together dependent slopes

Are these 4 independent estimates of the slope?
20
#3 Correlation—Solution
• Backload samples• E.g.: 30 day study tested on day 0, 7, 15, 30
• Study day 1: put 30-day samples on stability• Study day 15: put 15-day samples on stability• Study day 23: put 7-day samples on stability• Study day 30: test all samples on same assay run
• Independent slope estimates without run-to-run assay variability
• More planning with lab• Protocols are more complicated
21
#4 Groups
• What about group differences?• Sites, components, raw materials?• Different testing labs
• Do we have “enough” data to tell meaningful differences?
• Should we expect group differences?

Increasing Property: Groups
No technical or scientific reason for these groups to be different. Therefore, there is no practical difference here. Sums of squares is small due to low variability within batches.

#5 Proxy Data
• Patient use involves simulating dosing regimen• Does this impact the molecule?
• Accelerated studies may be held under the same ambient conditions as patient use• Do these studies have same change?• What are timepoints? Are there enough during
the in-use period?
24
In-Use Change
• Non-statistical questions can impact• Conclusions• Analysis• Cost to the business
25
Other Uncontrolled Environments
• Manufacturing wait times• Transfer times between production steps• Transfer times to packaging• Packaging/labeling time• Transfer time shipping• Shipping excursions• When in the process are stability samples
assayed?

• Impact to statistical modeling• Consider data structure
• Correlated data points• Data groups
• Consider science AND statistical significance• Consider proxy data
