Objectives Explore current inspection trends as a reflection
of a defective or immature Quality System
Identify recurring CGMP problems in order to
prevent quality issues and common DI breaches
(paper based and electronic systems)
Assess if individual, group, system or quality
culture issue
Identify means of transforming an organization
that has been marked by bad DI practices

Lack of controlled access to computer systems
“Trial”, “Test” HPLC injections of drug products
for release and stability testing. Some trial
injections render OOS results, but passed the
“official sample”
Some of the trial injections were deleted data
Copying existing data as new data
Discarding or deleting results with no
justification and re-running/retesting samples
to present better results

31
Consequences of Breaches in
Data Integrity1. Regulatory Actions that may take years to
resolve (WLs, Uls, Import Alerts, NC Status)
2. Lost of credibility, reputation, trust and
confidence from patients, regulators, industry
and stockholders, etc.
3. Unnecessary delays in approval of pending and
new drug applications
4. Impacts business as other filers may be
granted approval first

32
Consequences of Breaches in
Data Integrity
5. Because of the time it takes to recover,
companies’ ability to focus on new technology
and enhancement of processes and systems is
affected
6. Financial impact in contractual agreements
with consultants and independent parties
7. Products are usually transferred to CMOs or
other sites
8. May required full organizational changes
