Method characteristics
Angelina Rafai | CE Pharm 20185
Relative methods (e.g. area%)
− Response (e.g. area%) not related to
the test sample concentration
− Response related to relative content of
each component
− Extinction coefficient known for entire
protein solution, not for each single
component
− Protein variants might differ in
extinction coefficient (depending on
modification)
Quantitative methods
− Response (e.g. area) related to
concentration
− Extinction coefficient known
− All variants are identified and
characterized

− Sample dilution to LOQ level (e.g. 0.1 %)
− Evaluation of RSD for area (Main variant)
− Evaluation of S/N
− LOQ level is determined by serial dilutions (calculating the S/N)
− Determined LOQ is applied to test method (one LOQ for all variants)
Angelina Rafai | CE Pharm 201812
LOQ – common procedure and suggestion
suitable
signals for
LOQ
evaluation
− Undiluted test solution (100 % target load)
− Possibly using stressed material
− Differentiation between fragments/aggregates and acid/basic variants
− Evaluation of RSD for area% (suitable LOQ signals)
− Separate LOQs for different variants
![Page 13: Validation strategies and which parameters to focus on€¦ · −ICH guideline Q2(R1) does not cover relative test methods (e.g. area%) −Validation parameters need to be aligned](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062921/5f04235b7e708231d40c803d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Angelina Rafai | CE Pharm 201813
Linearity – common procedure and suggestion
− Sample dilution (LOQ – 150 % of target load)
− Evaluation of response (e.g. area)
− Linear plot %target load / response (e.g. area)
− Linear range of detector (also for relative methods)
![Page 14: Validation strategies and which parameters to focus on€¦ · −ICH guideline Q2(R1) does not cover relative test methods (e.g. area%) −Validation parameters need to be aligned](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062921/5f04235b7e708231d40c803d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Angelina Rafai | CE Pharm 201814
Linearity – suggestion
− Linear range of detector (also for relative methods)
− 50 – 150 % of target load
− If suitable material is available (purified variants)
− Differentiation between fragments/aggregates and acid/basic variants
− e.g. 60 – 120 % of specification
− Evaluation of residuals
− Deduce accuracy
![Page 15: Validation strategies and which parameters to focus on€¦ · −ICH guideline Q2(R1) does not cover relative test methods (e.g. area%) −Validation parameters need to be aligned](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062921/5f04235b7e708231d40c803d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Unspiked sample
Spiked sample
Accuracy - suggestion
Size-based separation (CGE, SEC)
− Origin and identity of impurities should
be clear
− Non-red: fragments
� spiking of reduced material
− Red: deglycosylated variants
� spiking of deglycosylated material
Charge-based separation (cIEF, CZE, IEX)
− Identity of impurities should be clear
− Charge variants may include fragments
(ε ≠ const.) and amino acid modifications(ε ≈ const.)
� spiking material with equal features
(produced material has to be
characterized first)

Angelina Rafai | CE Pharm 201816
Summary
− Relative methods (e.g. area%) are not quantitative
− ICH guideline Q2(R1) does not cover relative test methods (e.g. area%)
− Validation parameters need to be aligned with analytical result (no evaluation of
absolute values, e.g. area)
− LOQ, linearity, and accuracy have to be addressed appropriately (extinction
coefficient)
