TheglobalregulatoryenvironmentGlobalization directly affects the protection and promotion of public health everywhere. Medicinal products distributed and used in domestic markets are increasingly global commodities. The manufacturing and distribution supply chains are complex, multi-faceted, globally integrated and may at times be difficult to understand or unravel. The ability of a regulator to assure the safety, quality and efficacy of a medicinal product domestically requires knowledge of and confidence in these supply chains and regulatory oversight at all stages. There is also growing complexity in medicinal products and their

ingredients, and managing the risks and benefits requires regulators to consider international collaboration approaches to provide access to regulatory authorities’ resources and the best available scientific and technical expertise. The resulting increase of global regulatory networks, usually conducted at the technical/operational level, also calls for increased efficiency in managing the expertise and resources invested in these initiatives. In short, Medicines Regulatory Authorities (MRA) regulate within an extremely complex domain – legally, technically, and scientifically – and recognize that the effectiveness of the plans and approaches used to address these challenges

depends upon strategic-level leadership and new ways of working around the globe including information-sharing which gives room for potential synergies.

A collective, global understanding of these realities has fueled international discussions over the last few years including at the World Health Assembly, the World Health Organization’s International Conference of Drug Regulatory Authorities (ICDRA), and the International Summit of Heads of Medicines Regulatory Agencies. Leaders of MRAs are harnessing this momentum to establish a new way of collaborating, the International Coalition of Medicines Regulatory Authorities (ICMRA).

What is the ICMRA?The ICMRA is a venue for heads of national regulatory authorities around the world to enable a shared strategic leadership to address current and emerging global regulatory challenges and to better leverage resources in ways that expand global regulatory reach (1).

What sets the ICMRA apart from other existing regulatory initiatives is that it brings together senior leaders to provide strategic, high-level advocacy and leadership. ICMRA can provide direction for a range of areas and activities that are common to many MRAs’ missions and goals, identify areas for potential

synergies to be made, and wherever possible, leverage existing efforts to maximize global impact. Four over-arching objectives help to guide the ICMRA: • to protect human health throughout the

life-cycle of medicinal products; • to enable regulatory conditions which

facilitate improved access to and availability of safe, efficacious and quality medicinal products. This also includes enabling innovation and advancing regulatory science as it related to medicine research and development;

• to promote coherent and strategic multilateral cooperation among regulatory authorities, in order to strengthen mutual reliance, trust, synergies and regulatory systems, and to achieve better use of collective resources/work products and sharing of best practices; and

• to promote the leveraging of regulatory authorities’ resources, including knowledge and expertise.

ICMRA has a medicines focus at this stage, and participants are currently working on selected joint efforts to stimulate collaborative thinking and action, piloting new ways of working to build mutual reliance, and facilitating early and timely identification of emerging public health crises that intersect with medical regulatory authorities (Box 1).

WHO Drug Information Vol. 29, No. 1, 2015 Regulatory collaboration

Indeed, much of ICMRA’s true potential is in its ability to maintain a consistent and open dialogue among the heads of MRAs, enabling them to quickly connect on issues of mutual priority or concern. A good example of this coordinated response is the September 4, 2014 ICMRA Statement on Ebola (2).

The ICMRA is currently operating in an interim period (2013-2015) as it builds a strong foundation for governance and sustainable collaboration. It is supported by a Secretariat and guided by a Chair, two Vice-Chairs1, and a Management Committee2. Membership3, currently envisioned by a small number of current members emanating from earlier heads of medicines summits4, will be voluntary

1 Health Canada’s Health Products and Food Branch (HC-HPFB) is the interim ICMRA Chair and interim Secretariat, with Ireland’s Health Product Regulatory Authority and Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency as Vice-Chairs.

2 ICMRA Management Committee membership includes: Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Europe, Ireland, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Singapore, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

3 Current membership in the ICMRA includes the Heads of the regulatory authorities of: Australia (TGA), Brazil (ANVISA), Canada (HPFB-HC), China (CFDA), Europe (EMA and EC), France (ANSM), Germany (PEI), Ireland (HPRA), Italy (AIFA), Japan (PMDA and MHLW), Korea (MFDS), Mexico (COFEPRIS), the Netherlands (MEB), New Zealand (Medsafe), Nigeria (NAFDAC), Singapore (HSA), South Africa (MCC), Switzerland (Swissmedic), the United Kingdom (MHRA) and the United States (FDA), with the World Health Organization (WHO) as an observer.

4 The International Summit of Heads of Medicines Regulatory Agencies is an annual meeting that serves as an important forum for the exchange of information, views and regulatory strategies among the chief executives of major and like-minded medicines regulatory agencies.

and will include regulatory authorities for medicinal products5.

Envisioning a framework for actionOver time, ICMRA will enable a global architecture to support enhanced communication, information-sharing and crisis response. ICMRA will also focus on strengthening regulatory systems and capacity, and increasing awareness of and appreciation for the importance of strong regulatory systems and functions within national, sub-regional, and global contexts.

ICMRA benefits are multi-faceted and most importantly enable MRAs to coalesce around regulatory issues of mutual priority within a 21st century environment. ICMRA benefits will be stronger confidence and collaboration among regulators, less duplication of effort and more strategic use of human and financial resources. All heads of national regulatory authorities are encouraged to remain apprised of developments within ICMRA and engage with the ICMRA.

Potential for global synergiesAs ICMRA begins to determine where it can best add value within an environment of various global regulatory efforts, it is clear that the potential for synergies are numerous. There are many well-established technical and scientific bodies already serving unique purposes with specific mandates, for example, the International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) and the Pharmaceutical Inspection Convention and Pharmaceutical

Inspection Co-operation Scheme (PIC/S). Dialogue between ICMRA and these organizations has already begun with the purpose of opening and maintaining ongoing communication on issues of common concern and interest. ICMRA will continue to connect with other initiatives, including those with a regional focus.

ICMRA continues to identify areas of potential synergy on discrete topics including: Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), information-sharing and information-sharing platforms, Unique Facility Identifiers (UFI), generic drugs, and capacity building. Using ICMRA as a venue to convene MRAs on topics of mutual priority can yield significant benefits.

In sum, the ICMRA is a new governance and leadership model in the global

regulatory environment. By providing strategic and high-level oversight and guidance and early thinking, we, as the leaders of our respective regulatory authorities, hope to better leverage our resources, address issues of mutual concern, and increase shared thinking and action. We encourage all WHO Member States to increase their understanding of ICMRA and become engaged as we move to transform the global regulatory landscape. æ

ThebenefitsofgoodreviewpracticesRegulatory authorities (RAs) are increasingly seeking ways to improve their performance and ensure the quality of their regulatory systems. Medical product review is that part of regulatory work that forms the scientific foundation for regulatory decisions on marketing authorizations. It requires a highly complex, multidisciplinary assessment of product data to ensure that products submitted for regulatory approval meet adequate scientific and evidentiary standards for safety, efficacy and quality.

Implementation of good review practices helps RAs to achieve timely reviews with high quality outcomes, with a significant impact on public health, for example in terms of patients’ access to important medical products, and costs to both government and applicants.

Good review practice also facilitates progress towards regulatory convergence

through the exchange of review reports and better mutual understanding among RAs. This is a significant benefit as the use of reviews and decisions reached by other RAs is expected to become increasingly important in achieving review efficiencies in the face of pressures on resources.

GuidelinedevelopmentIn June 2013 the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Regulatory Harmonization Steering Committee (RHSC) convened an expert working group with WHO representation to develop a draft good review practices document, intended to cover both medicines and medical devices, for submission to WHO in early 2014. WHO risk management principles (2) and the results of an APEC survey (3) were among the key references used in developing this text.

The draft document was accepted for parallel public consultation processes

for both the WHO Expert Committee on Specifications for Pharmaceutical Preparations and the WHO Expert Committee on Biological Standardization. This led to a guidance text on good review practices for regulatory authorities being adopted by the WHO Expert Committee on Specifications for Pharmaceutical Preparations at its forty-ninth meeting, held on 13–17 October 2014 in Geneva.

ObjectiveandscopeThe objective of the document is to provide high-level guidance on the principles and processes of good review practice for use across a range of RA maturities. It is not intended to provide detailed instruction on how to conduct a scientific review. Rather, it is envisioned as one building block in a set of tools and is sufficiently expandable to accommodate additional annexes or ancillary documents in the future. The principles and elements described in this document can be adapted to meet the continuous needs for improvement of a diverse range of RAs.

Although the document was written to provide guidance on pharmaceutical products and biologicals and higher-risk medical devices used in humans, the concepts may be applied to other types of medical products. Similarly, the concepts could also be applied to the entire product life cycle from investigational testing to new product applications, updates or variations to existing marketing authorizations and maintenance of the product.

Whatisgoodreviewpractice?The guidelines define good review practices (GRevPs) as “documented best practices for any aspect related to the process, format, content and management of a medical product review. The objective

of GRevPs is to help achieve timeliness, predictability, consistency, transparency, clarity, efficiency and high quality in both the content and management of reviews. This is done through the development of review tools (for example, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and templates) and reviewer learning activities (for example, training courses, mentoring, orientation packages and discussion sessions). To promote continuous improvement, all aspects of GRevPs should be continuously evaluated and updated.”

The document proposes ten key principles of a good review as a general guide for RAs (see Box 1).

Managing the reviewThe principles of project management and quality management are critical to achieve efficient and effective review processes.

Project management refers to the planning, organizing and resourcing necessary to achieve a complete and high-quality review of an application within a specified time frame. RAs should identify the most suitable techniques enabling them to monitor the progress of one or many applications under review at any one time, to help in decision-making on how to balance workload against resources, and to enable monitoring and/or its interpretation by the relevant people.

Quality management – the coordinated activities that direct and control an organization with regard to quality – ensures that GRevPs are in place, regularly monitored and subject to continuous improvement. The quality cycle is made up of four key components:

• say what you do,• do what you say,• prove it, and• improve it.

Box 1:Tenkeyprinciplesofagoodreview

BalancedA good review is objective and unbiased.

Considers contextA good review considers the data and the conclusions of the applicant in the context of the proposed conditions of use and storage, and may include perspectives from patients, health-care professionals and other RAs’ analyses and decisions.

Evidence-based A good review is evidence-based and reflects both the scientific and regulatory state of the art. It integrates legislative, regulatory and policy frameworks with emerging science.

Identifies signalsA good review comprehensively highlights potential areas of concern identified by the applicant and the reviewers.

Investigates and solves problemsA good review provides both the applicant’s and the reviewers’ in-depth analyses and findings of key scientific data and uses problem-solving, regulatory flexibility, risk-based analyses and synthesis skills to devise and recommend solutions and alternatives where needed.

Makes linkagesA good review provides integrated analysis across all aspects of the application: preclinical,

nonclinical, clinical, chemistry/biocompatibility, manufacturing and risk management plan. It includes timely communication and consultation with applicants, internal stakeholders and, as needed, with external stakeholders who have expertise relevant to the various aspects of the application.

Utilizes critical analyses A good review assesses the scientific integrity, relevance and completeness of the data and proposed labelling, as well as the interpretation thereof, presented in the application.

ThoroughA good review reflects adequate follow-through of all the issues by the reviewers.

Well-documentedA good review provides a well-written and thorough report of the evidence-based findings and conclusions provided by the applicant in the dossier, and the reviewers’ assessment of the conclusions and rationale for reaching a decision. It contains clear, succinct recommendations that can stand up to scrutiny by all the parties involved and could be leveraged by others.

Well-managedA good review applies project and quality management processes, including clearly defined steps with specific activities and targets.

This cycle ensures that GRevPs are not merely theoretical guidelines (“say what you do”) but become embedded in the daily practice of an agency (“do what you say”). Quality management can also help an agency review its practice (“prove it”) and evolve where necessary, either in response to evolving regulatory science or through the adoption of new review processes and procedures (“improve it”).Standardoperatingprocedures

(SOPs) enable RAs to outline workflow processes, handle and review product applications in a consistent manner,

and facilitate staff training. SOPs can be complemented by companion documents such as guidelines, templates and checklists, and can be designed both for internal use and to guide applicants seeking marketing authorization.

SOPs will require updating in line with evolving scientific progress, international harmonization of guidelines, changes in review strategy, available resources, increased volume of applications, collaborative work-sharing, and national laws and regulations, among others.

ReviewprocessstagesThe review process has two key stages: firstly a validation stage (also called screening) to identify missing information in the application, ensuring that time and review resources are only spent on applications that have enough data to allow critical analysis, signal identification and regulatory decision-making, and secondly the actual scientific review, discussed in more detail below. Applicants should be made clearly aware of the RA’s expectations at both stages.

CommunicationsGood communication is critical and has many advantages for RAs, applicants and the public. It can improve the efficiency of the development and review processes and thus ultimately speed up patient access to good quality medical products.

Communications can take many active forms, from providing information on RAs’ websites to engaging with the international community on RA projects. The guidelines outline best practices for communication and their benefits at various levels:• within RAs, for effective coordination of

organizational units carrying out different pre- and postmarketing functions (for example pharmacovigilance, inspection and others);

• between RAs, enabling peer collaboration and cooperation, whereby interagency communications can also facilitate greater regulatory convergence;

• with applicants, to provide insight into the RA’s current thinking and expectations, enabling a mutual better understanding and therefore better quality applications;

• with external experts (for example from academic institutions, industry associations, patient organizations and

medical or scientific organizations) to make use of valuable expertise while ensuring confidentiality and absence of conflict of interest; and

• with the public, to foster awareness, understanding of and confidence in the RA, and to obtain input on proposed regulations and/or specific applications.

ReviewpersonnelThe quality, timeliness and success of medical product reviews are dependent on a sufficient number of competent reviewers. The guideline outlines the expertise, competencies and training required to deal with the various aspects of managing and conducting reviews.

Reviewers may be RA staff, external experts or both. Reviewers should be free of actual or perceived conflicts of interests, meaning that the review decision or recommendation is not likely to be influenced by personal, family, financial or professional motives, including those of employers when an external expert is also a consultant to the regulated industry. Review staff should follow sound ethical practices.

Reviewers should keep their scientific expertise up to date. The guidelines propose various approaches for professional development of review staff, making use of opportunities both within and outside the RA.

Critical thinking and good judgementCritical thinking is important for reviewers to make decisions that are reproducible and clearly understood by others. Reviewers should have the ability to critically appraise the information presented in an application and not just accept it as presented. This skill can be strengthened by learning from

11

WHO Drug Information Vol. 29, No. 1, 2015 Norms and standards

senior reviewers and through discussion among reviewers and external experts on application-specific issues.

Good judgement is required for reviewers to come to balanced decisions. This involves focusing on the important issues in the application and adopting those regulatory approaches that will maximize public health benefits while minimizing adverse, unintended consequences.

Regulatory decision-making should be based on the best current science, in the context of each country’s public health needs and its medical care system. The scientific rationale for decision-making, including all information used and any dissenting, evidence-based views, should be documented to ensure the integrity of the review process. Decision-making by an RA should be independent of influences beyond public health.

Review strategy For each specific application, a review strategy – i.e. an approach or plan of action – should be defined and followed by the reviewer or review team to ensure a sound review process. The strategy employed may be shaped by:• the public health priority of the medical

product submitted for review;• other RAs’ action on the product, taking

into account any product differences (for example formulation or final container presentation) and any differences in the proposed indications or conditions of use in the local population;

• specific intrinsic and extrinsic factors that are clinically relevant to the population served by the RA; and

• major scientific questions on product safety, efficacy or quality (examples: identification of possible cases of organ toxicity in a patient population with a

high background incidence of the same organ disease, use of a new end point for regulatory approval that may not be a direct measure of clinical benefit, or use of conditions for stability testing that are not appropriate for the RA’s regional climate). Early identification of complex or precedent-setting issues or areas of high uncertainty in the application can lead to faster and more efficient resolution, based on an early review of the most relevant available data.

Conducting the reviewThe way in which a review is conducted will depend on available resources. While a multidisciplinary team will provide broader expertise, in some cases an application may be assigned to a single reviewer, seeking input from external experts and/or considering the information and decisions of other RAs as needed.

The review should be evidence-based, taking into account national laws and regulations, regional and international guidelines and, where applicable, monographs and standards. The reviewer should determine the information necessary to approve the product, and consider what further studies (if any) can be left for the post-approval stage without compromising safety.

The model adopted for review may allow for questions to be asked during the review to supplement or clarify the information supplied, until the reviewer is satisfied that enough data have been provided for a conclusion to be reached. In other models, the review is completed on the basis of the information submitted, a list of questions is then sent to the applicant with a time-limit for response, and one further round of assessment of the responses takes place before a decision is made.

Norms and standards WHO Drug Information Vol. 29, No. 1, 2015

12

The following internal processes may help ensure an efficient, consistent and effective review process:• periodic meetings to allow consideration

of the views of different reviewers;• peer review, in the context of a

co-rapporteur, or a team meeting;• an internal panel review;• an external panel review; and• the involvement of senior management.

QuantifyingrisksandbenefitsThe review strategy should enable the reviewer or review team to understand and describe the benefit–risk profile of the medical product, given its indication and context of use. Benefits and risks can be quantified or qualitatively characterized, and the levels of certainty surrounding the benefits and risks should be stated. The review should address generalizability of the data, the clinical significance of the findings and what (if any) additional information may be needed to clarify benefits and risks.

The acceptability of benefits and risks will depend on public health priorities, available alternative therapies, the size and certainty of the treatment effect versus that of the adverse reactions, and possible risk mitigation or benefit enhancement measures (for example responder analyses to identify a population more likely to experience benefits). The benefit–risk profile may vary depending on intrinsic and extrinsic factors that may differ among countries and regions. Moreover, judgement may vary within and among RAs. Evidence-based and public health-focused decision-making principles may serve to mitigate some of the variation.

ReviewreportThe findings and conclusions of the review must be described in a well-documented

review report, and the final decision should be conveyed to the applicant. If an RA decides not to grant authorization, a statement of reasons should be provided which details the documents, information and regulatory requirements taken into account in reaching the decision. An appeal mechanism should be provided giving applicants an opportunity to present their case to an independent arbiter.

Some RAs may offer to hold a post-action discussion with the applicant to help improve the quality of future applications.

Lastly the RA may also implement mechanisms for public communication of review outcomes and related information, increasing the transparency of its regulatory actions. æ

Metoclopramide:notforchildrenunder one year of ageC a n a d a – The marketing authorization holder, in consultation with Health Canada, has warned that neurological adverse events can occur in children receiving metoclopramide within the daily recommended dosage of 0.5 mg/kg. Metoclopramide is now contraindicated in children less than one year of age in Canada, as a Health Canada review has shown that they are at greater risk of abnormal involuntary movements (extrapyramidal symptoms). In children over one year metoclopramide should only be used if the anticipated benefits clearly outweigh the potential risks.

Domperidone:furtherrestrictionsU n i t e d K i n g d o m – Further to a recommendation by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to restrict the use of domperidone to the management of nausea and vomiting due to adverse effects on the heart (see WHO Drug Information Vol. 28, No. 2), domperidone-containing medicines have been restricted in the United Kingdom for supply on prescription only with effect from 4 September 2014. (1)N e w Z e a l a n d – A Medsafe review has concluded that domperidone-containing medicines have a small increased risk of adverse heart effects, which may be higher in patients over 60 years or at total daily doses of more than 30 mg. The

manufacturer has decided to reduce the maximum recommended dose from 80 mg to 40 mg daily. (2)

C a n a d a – Health professionals have been informed of additional safety information about some cardiac risks associated with domperidone. The medicine is now contraindicated in Canada in patients with prolonged of cardiac conduction intervals, significant electrolyte disturbances, cardiac disease or liver impairment, and those receiving QT-prolonging drugs or potent CYP3A4 inhibitors. Domperidone should be used at the lowest effective dose up to a maximum recommended daily dose of 30 mg and for the shortest possible duration.

Nitrofurantoine: revised contraindication in renal impairmentU n i t e d K i n g d o m – The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has recommended to lower the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) below which nitrofurantoin is contraindicated. Its use should now be allowed in patients with an eGFR of 45 ml/min/1.73m2 or more (previously: 60 ml/min/1.73m2). A short course (3 to 7 days) may be used with caution in certain patients with an eGFR of 30–44 ml/

min/1.73m2 to treat lower urinary tract infection with suspected or proven multidrug-resistant pathogens.

The efficacy of nitrofurantoin in treating and preventing urinary tract infections depends on its renal secretion into the urinary tract. The revised recommendations consider the fact that lower urinary tract pathogens are increasingly resistant to standard therapy (trimethoprim and amoxicillin), and that the widespread use of alternative broad-spectrum antibiotics (cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones) is associated with the risk of Clostridium difficile colitis.

Oraldiclofenac:prescription-onlyin United KingdomU n i t e d K i n g d o m – Diclofenac 12.5mg and 25mg tablets, formerly available over the counter, have been re-classified as a prescription-only medicines in the United Kingdom with effect from 15 January 2015.

A 2013 Europe-wide review had found that systemic diclofenac is associated with a small increased risk of arterial thromboembolic events, similar to that of COX-2 inhibitors. In the United Kingdom the Commission on Human Medicines (CHM) has reconsidered available evidence and has concluded that the risk of these side effects cannot be ruled out even when the medicine is taken for a short time or at a lower dose. The Commission therefore advised that patients should have a medical review before taking oral diclofenac to make sure it is suitable for them.

Hydroxyzine: new restrictionsE u r o p e a n U n i o n – The EMA’s Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) has completed a review of medicines containing the antihistamine hydroxyzine. These are available in most EU countries for various indications such as treatment of anxiety disorders and sleep disorders, relief of itching caused by urticaria, and as premedication before surgery.

The PRAC considered that hydroxyzine is associated with a small but definite risk of QT interval prolongation and torsade de pointes, which can lead to abnormal heart rhythms and cardiac arrest.

To minimize the risk the Committee has recommended a number of restrictions. Use is not recommended in the elderly. Duration and dosage should be reduced to minimum effective levels. The maximum daily dose should be no more than 100 mg

15

Chlorhexidine: chemical burns in prematureinfantsU n i t e d K i n g d o m – The MHRA has warned health professionals that alcohol-based and aqueous chlorhexidine solutions used for skin antisepsis prior to invasive procedures can cause chemical burns in neonates. This risk appears to be higher in preterm infants, especially those born before 32 weeks of gestation, and within the first two weeks of life.

Health professionals should remove any soaked materials before proceeding with the intervention. They should not use excessive quantities of chlorhexidine and should not allow the solution to pool in skin folds or under the patient or to drip on any material in direct contact with the patient. Before applying occlusive dressings, care must be taken to remove any excess chlorhexidine.

Testosterone:cautionaboutuseinhealthy menU n i t e d S t a t e s o f A m e r i c a – The U.S. FDA has cautioned about using testosterone products to treat low testosterone levels due to aging. The Agency requires labelling changes to clarify the approved indications of testosterone and to inform health professionals and patients of possible increased risks of heart attack and stroke associated with the use of these products.

Prescription testosterone products are approved in the U.S. only to treat low testosterone levels caused by certain medical conditions. The FDA has become aware that testosterone is being used extensively in attempts to relieve symptoms in men who have low testosterone levels for no apparent reason other than aging. The Agency cautions that the benefit and safety of these medications have not been established in this patient group – even if a man’s symptoms seem related to low testosterone – and that some studies in aging men treated with testosterone have reported an increased risk of heart attack, stroke or death. (1)

Warnings about the possible cardiac risks associated with testosterone have also been communicated recently by the EMA and New Zealand’s Medsafe (2).

Donepezil:rhabdomyolysisandneurolepticmalignantsyndromeC a n a d a – Health Canada has communicated new warnings for donepezil, used in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. This medicine is associated with a risk of two rare but potentially serious conditions: rhabdomyolysis, a rare condition involving the breakdown of muscle tissue, and neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), a very rare life-threatening disorder characterized by a chemical imbalance that affects the nervous, muscular and cardiovascular systems.

Before prescribing donepezil health professionals should assess patients for risk factors for rhabdomyolysis such as: muscular disorders, uncontrolled hypothyroidism, liver or kidney damage, and concomitant use of other medicines that can cause rhabdomyolysis such as statins, antipsychotics, and certain types of antidepressants. Donepezil therapy should be stopped if blood tests show high levels of creatine phosphokinase (CPK), and/or if NMS and/or rhabdomyolysis is diagnosed.

Nitric oxide cylinders: faulty valves ;

E u r o p e a n U n i o n – The manufacturer, in cooperation with EMA and national regulatory authorities, has informed health professionals in EU Member States that a defect might cause the valves in some nitric oxide (INOmax®) cylinders to close while in use and before the cylinder is emptied. This abruptly stops gas delivery earlier than expected. Life-threatening rebound effects can occur if the cylinder is not changed immediately.

The defect applies to 400 ppm and 800 ppm cylinders of both the 2 L and 10 L pack sizes. To minimize the adverse reactions health professionals should always have a full spare cylinder loaded onto the delivery device, always use devices with pressure sensor monitors and gas monitor alarms, and when switching cylinders purge the regulator of the second cylinder before connecting it to the device to prevent excessive NO2 formation. For all patient transfers, even short transfers, back-up cylinders should be kept available.

Manufacturing quality issues

GVK Biosciences: EMA recommendssuspensionsE u r o p e a n U n i o n – The EMA’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) has recommended to suspend some 700 pharmaceutical forms and strengths of medicines authorized in EU Member States based primarily on clinical studies conducted at GVK Biosciences in Hyderabad, India.

An inspection by the French medicines agency ANSM had raised concerns about prolonged and systematic non-compliance with good clinical practice at GVK’s Hyderabad site. This does not mean that the medicines concerned are necessarily unsafe for patients, but that reliable data are needed to prove their bioequivalence.

The CHMP has identified those medicines for which insufficient clinical data are available from other sites, and has recommended their suspension unless a national authority considers that a medicine is of critical importance to meet patients’ needs in the specific EU Member State. In that case, the marketing authorization holder is given 12 months to submit additional data. (1)

Some marketing authorisation holders have requested a re-examination. (2)

S w i t z e r l a n d – The Swiss Agency for Therapeutic Products (Swissmedic) has identified three products that are authorized for export from Switzerland on the basis of clinical trials by GVK Biosciences in Hyderabad (India). Swissmedic will now review these authorizations in detail. (3)

Access to treatment

AdaptivelicensingpathwaysA recent publication takes a look at the environmental changes that may make adaptive licensing pathways the approach of the future.

The concept of adaptive licensing foresees an early approval of a medicine for a restricted patient population, based on small initial clinical studies. The initial marketing authorization is then progressively adapted to make the medicine accessible to broader patient populations, based on data gathered from its use and from additional studies.

Key drivers that could make adaptive pathways the preferred approach in future include: growing patient demand for timely access to promising therapies in particular where there are unmet medical needs; identification of subgroups of patients who are likely to respond to certain medicines better than others; rising payer influence with calls for a more targeted use of medicines to increase their therapeutic value; and pressure on industry and investors to make drug development sustainable by targeting smaller, better defined patient populations to bring medicines forward at a lower initial cost.

AppraisalofexpensivemedicinesAn editorial in the Bulletin of the World Health Organization presents the case for a global forum to discuss objectivity and equity in access to high-priced drugs.

Increasingly, patients are asking for early access to new drugs, for example to treat cancer. Often these drugs are very expensive. Price-setting is largely a function of the market, and the prices of some recently introduced drugs – for example sofosbuvir – have been questioned.

The authors argue that it is time for a global forum for the development of methods to evaluate available data for early market entry, determine an appropriate initial price, optimize the collection of data from clinical practice, enable independent trials and manage the exit of products that, in practice, are found to be insufficiently effective.

Medicines Patent Pool signs licensingagreementsforpaediatricantiretroviralsG e n e v a – The Medicines Patent Pool (MPP) has signed two new licensing agreements for HIV paediatric formulations, enabling pharmaceutical companies to develop, manufacture and sell low-cost product versions in countries with high disease burdens.

An agreement has been signed with AbbVie for lopinavir and ritonavir, covering 102 countries of which more than 65 are classified as middle-income nations. Moreover, provisions in the agreement permit manufacture and distribution in countries where AbbVie does not hold patents, such as in India where the company has withdrawn its patent applications for both lopinavir and ritonavir. (1)

An agreement has also been signed with MSD, known as Merck in the United States and Canada. The agreement is for paediatric formulations of raltegravir and covers 92 low- and middle-income countries. Raltegravir fills an important gap in the care of children who fail on their first-line HIV regimens. (2)

The licenses will support the work of the recently launched Paediatric HIV Treatment Initiative (PHTI) to develop better adapted medicines for children living with the virus.

The MPP cooperates with the WHO Prequalification of Medicines Programme to ensure that medicines made with MPP licences meet international quality and safety standards and are acceptable for UN procurement.

Anti-TBdrugdonationagreedG e n e v a – The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Johnson & Johnson affiliate Janssen Therapeutics have signed a memorandum of understanding to provide 30 000 treatment courses of the newly developed medicine bedaquiline worth US$ 30 million for free through USAID’s programmes. The medicine will be distributed to nearly 100 eligible low- and middle-income countries over four years. Eligibility criteria will be developed over the coming months.

Bedaquiline is the first new anti-tuberculosis drug developed in four decades. It is effective against strains of tuberculosis that are resistant to two or more antibiotics.

The Executive Secretary of the Stop TB Partnership, Dr Ditiu, noted that the community should use this opportunity wisely to save lives, and that the deal sets a precedent for collaboration between pharmaceutical companies and international organizations to tackle drug-resistant tuberculosis.

New anti-tuberculosis medicine starts clinical testingN e w Yo r k – The Global Alliance for TB Drug Development (TB Alliance) has announced the start of the first human trial of a new tuberculosis drug candidate, a next-generation nitroimidazole designated TBA-354. It is the first new TB drug candidate to begin a Phase I clinical trial since 2009.

TBA-354 was identified in studies conducted by TB Alliance in collaboration

with the University of Auckland and University of Illinois-Chicago. In preclinical studies, TBA-354 demonstrated more potent anti-bactericidal and sterilizing activity than pretomanid, another nitroimidazole drug that is currently being tested as a component of other novel regimens in multiple clinical trials.

The TB Alliance is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to finding faster-acting and affordable drug regimens to fight tuberculosis through innovative science with support from partners around the globe.

Ebola: an unforgiving virusG e n e v a – One year after the first Ebola cases emerged in Guinea, WHO has released a series of 14 papers that take an in-depth look at different aspects of the epidemic (1).

VaccinesAs the epidemic begins to ebb, efforts to develop, test, and approve Ebola vaccines are followed through as they will have a significant impact on the further evolution. Two vaccines are at an advanced stage of developmen; large volumes of vaccine doses could become available from early 2015 although deployment and further evaluation in the aftermath of the outbreak will be demanding (2). The first Phase III trial was launched in Guinea in March 2015 (3). A third vaccine candidate is in Phase I trials and a number of others are under development (4).

TreatmentsConvalescent blood therapies and medicines have been further evaluated.

35

WHO Drug Information Vol. 29, No. 1, 2015 Publications and events

Two medicines approved for other uses – favipiravir and brincidofovir – warrant further investigation in clinical trials in affected countries (2). The EMA has reviewed seven medicine candidates to treat Ebola, and has found that available evidence is not sufficient to draw con-clusions on their safety and efficacy (5).

DiagnosticsWHO has established an emergency quality assessment mechanism for in vitro diagnostics (IVDs) for Ebola Virus Disease. The mechanism aims to identify products that are acceptable for procurement by UN organizations and other partners while further data are being developed. In November 2014 WHO accepted the first Ebola in vitro diagnostic product under this mechanism; the first rapid test followed in February 2015. Other products are under assessment.

WHO is working with the Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics (FIND), Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), manufacturers and regulators to guide the development of new tests. (6)

The way forwardFour main lessons have been learned from this largest and longest Ebola outbreak in history: Firstly, resilient health systems must be built in all countries to absorb the shocks of future epidemics and climate changes. Secondly, vigilance and preparedness make a huge difference. Thirdly, a host of control measures must be coordinated to fight disease outbreaks, and lastly, community engagement is essential for an effective response. (7)

At a special session held in January 2015 the WHO Executive Board unanimously adopted a comprehensive resolution on next steps to end the Ebola outbreak and on what is needed in the

longer term for the world to respond to health emergencies under WHO’s leadership. (8)

Tuberculosis:furthertogoG e n e v a – Improved data show that there are almost half a million more tuberculosis cases worldwide than previously estimated. According to the WHO Global Tuberculosis Report 2014 (1) nine million people developed tuberculosis in 2013, and 1.5 million died. Encouragingly, incidence and mortality rates are still falling, and an estimated 37 million lives have been saved through effective diagnosis and treatment since 2000.

Nevertheless a staggering number of lives continue to be lost to this curable disease. Around three million tuberculosis cases are still being missed by health systems each year because they are either not diagnosed or not reported.

The multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) crisis continues, with severe epidemics in some regions and low treatment success rates in many settings around the world. Extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB), which is even more expensive and difficult to treat than MDR-TB, has now been reported in 100 countries. The report includes a supplement that marks 20 years of anti-TB drug-resistance surveillance and outlines the MDR-TB response and priority actions.

The authors of a comment in The Lancet (2) have called on all governments and donors to increase their funding for urgent, swift, and visionary action to reach the

the target defined in the WHO Global TB strategy, which is to eliminate tuberculosis as a public threat by 2035.

Malaria: fragile gainsL o n d o n – The World Malaria Report 2014, launched in the United Kingdom Houses of Parliament in December 2014, shows some encouraging results. The number of people dying from malaria has fallen dramatically since 2000, and malaria cases are also steadily declining. Between 2000 and 2013, the malaria mortality rate decreased by 47% worldwide and by 54% in the WHO African Region, where about 90% of malaria deaths occur.

While biological and technical challenges remain, a strong pipeline of innovative new products has the potential to transform malaria control and elimination. However, despite a threefold increase since 2005, funding to combat malaria is still only around half of the US$ 5.1 billion needed to achieve global targets. (1)

Adequate resourcing is particularly important to contain the parasite resistance to antimalarials that now affects five Asian countries. A recent study found that resistant strains have spread throughout Myanmar and have reached the border with India. If resistant malaria spreads to Africa, millions of lives could be at risk. (2)

HIV: fast track targetsG e n e v a / L o s A n g e l e s – A UNAIDS flagship report launched during an event at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in November 2014 shows how the world can now build on past achievements to end the AIDS epidemic as a global health threat.

By the end of 2013, 35 million people were living with HIV worldwide. New HIV infections in 2013 were estimated at 2.1 million, which was 38% lower than in 2001. The number of AIDS-related deaths also continues to decline, with 1.5 million people dying of AIDS-related causes in 2013, down 35% from the peak in 2005.

There is a global consensus to aim for 90% of people living with HIV knowing their HIV status, 90% of people who know their status receiving treatment and 90% of people on HIV treatment having a suppressed viral load thus reducing the risk of transmission. Other targets include reducing the annual number of new HIV infections by more than 75%, to 500 000 in 2020, and achieving zero discrimination. Investments will be critical in achieving these targets. Particular efforts are needed in the 30 countries that together account for 89% of new HIV infections worldwide, requiring significant commitments from both national and international sources.

Neglectedtropicaldiseases:domestic investments needed;

G e n e v a – WHO has released its report Investing to overcome the impact of neglected tropical diseases. The

Organization urges affected countries to scale up their investment in tackling 17 neglected tropical diseases in order to improve the health and well-being of more than 1.5 billion people. This investment would represent as little as 0.1% of current domestic expenditure on health in affected low- and middle-income countries for the period 2015-2030.

Neglected tropical diseases cause blindness, disfigurement, permanent disability and death. While good progress has been made towards eliminating some of them, others are gaining ground because of rapid and unplanned urbanization, population movement and environmental change. Dengue is one of them: it is now present in more than 150 countries. The report outlines an investment case and essential package of interventions for each of the 17 neglected tropical diseases targeted by WHO.

NewphaseofWHO’sexternalquality control laboratory scheme

The important role of QC laboratoriesQualityofmedicinesisamajorpublichealth challenge, particularly in light of the cross-border health-related issues and the international dimensions of trade.

Within the wide range of quality assurance measures that are needed to help ensure that quality medicines reach the patient, quality control has traditionally been one of the key elements. Pharmaceutical quality control laboratories play a major role in protecting patients from harm.

Quality control (QC) testing is complex.Errorsarenotonlycostlybutmayjeopardizepatientsafety. Patients may receive ineffective or even harmful medicines if true quality deficiencies are not identified. Conversely, if non-conforming results are falsely interpreted as quality failures, expensive medicines may be returned or destroyed, potentially leaving patients without life-saving treatment until the products are replaced at sometimes enormous additional costs.

Given these high stakes, trust in a QC laboratory’s capabilities is essential for all stakeholders who request its services.

New phase of EQAASWHOispleasedtoannouncePhase6of its External Quality Assurance Assessment Scheme (EQAAS) at preferentialfeesfarbelowcostforparticipantsfromlower-andmiddle-incomecountries.In order to enhance the efficiency and save costs, two studies will be carried out for each shipment.

The Sixty-seventh World Health Assembly,

Having considered the report on regulatory system strengthening; 2

Welcoming the efforts of the Director-General, and recognizing the pivotal role that WHO plays in supporting countries in strengthening their regulatory systems of medical products for human use,3 and in promoting equitable access to quality, safe, efficacious and affordable medical products;

Recalling the Constitution of the World Health Organization, which affirms that the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being without distinction of race, religion, political belief, economic or social condition;

Recalling also United Nations General Assembly resolution 67/81 on global health and foreign policy, which, inter alia, recognized the importance of universal coverage in national health systems, especially through primary health care and social protection mechanisms, in the provision of access to health services for all, in particular for the poorest segments of the population;

Recalling further resolutions WHA45.17, WHA47.17, WHA52.19, WHA54.11, WHA59.24, WHA63.12 and WHA65.19, all of which encompass aspects of the need to promote the quality, safety, efficacy and affordability of medicines, including blood products;

Reaffirming resolution WHA65.19 on substandard/spurious/falsely-labelled/falsified/counterfeit medical products, which establishes a new Member State mechanism for international collaboration, from a public health perspective, excluding trade and intellectual property considerations, to prevent and control substandard/spurious/falsely-labelled/falsified/counterfeit medical products and to promote access to affordable, safe and quality medical products;

Recognizing that effective regulatory systems are an essential component of health system strengthening and contribute to better public health outcomes, that regulators are an essential part of the health workforce, and that inefficient regulatory systems themselves can be a barrier to access to safe, effective and quality medical products;

Recognizing also that effective regulatory systems are necessary for implementing universal health coverage, responding to the dual burden of infectious and noncommunicable diseases, and achieving Millennium Development Goal 4 (Reduce child mortality), Goal 5 (Improve maternal health) and Goal 6 (Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases);

Aware that health systems need to promote access to essential medical products and that, in order to ensure universal access to health care, rational use of medicines and the sustainability of health systems, urgent action is needed by the international community, Member States and relevant actors in health systems;

Very concerned by the impact on patients of medical products of compromised quality, safety and efficacy, in terms of poisoning, inadequate or no treatment, contributions to drug resistance, the related economic burden, and erosion of public trust in the health system;

;

The Sixty-seventh World Health Assembly,

Having considered the report on regulatory system strengthening;3

Recalling the Constitution of the World Health Organization, which affirms that the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being without distinction of race, religion, political belief, economic or social condition;

Noting with particular concern that for millions of people, the right to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health, including access to medicines, remains a distant goal; that especially for children and those living in poverty, the likelihood of achieving this goal is becoming increasingly remote; that millions of people are driven below the poverty line each year because of catastrophic out-of-pocket payments for health care; and that excessive out-of-pocket payments can discourage the impoverished from seeking or continuing care;

Recalling resolution WHA55.14 on ensuring accessibility of essential medicines, which recognizes the responsibility of Member States to support solid scientific evidence, excluding any biased information or external pressures that may be detrimental to public health;

Further recalling that in resolution WHA55.14 the Health Assembly urged Member States, inter alia, to reaffirm their commitment to increasing access to medicines, and to translate such commitment into specific regulation within countries, especially enactment of national drug policies and establishment of lists of essential medicines based on evidence and with reference to WHO’s Model List, and into actions designed to promote policy for, access to, and quality and rational use of, medicines within national health systems;

Considering that one of the objectives of pharmaceutical regulation is the assurance of the quality, safety and efficacy of pharmaceutical products through the regulatory processes of authorization, vigilance and monitoring;

Considering also that national pharmaceutical regulation should contribute to the performance and sustainability of health systems and the general welfare of society;

Considering further that an update of the norms and standards applicable to medicines is required in the light of advances made in biotechnology, and the new generation of medicines introduced as a result, in order to ensure the entry into the market of medicines that are affordable, safe, efficacious, of quality and accessible in a timely and adequate fashion;

Recognizing that the use of such medicines has a positive impact on morbidity and mortality rates and that, while there are multiple barriers to access, the high cost of such medicines affects the sustainability of health systems and could in many cases affect access to them;

Noting the importance of, and using as appropriate, WHO’s Expert Committee on Biological Standardization’s guidelines on evaluation of similar biotherapeutic products (2009), and recognizing the need to update them, particularly in terms of technological advances and characterization, in order to promote more efficient regulatory frameworks from a public health

Maintain the column temperature at 35°C.

Prepare the following solutions using a mixture of 31 volumes of acetonitrile R and 69 volumes of water R as solvent. For solution (1) dissolve 50 mg of the test substance in 10 mL and sonicate for about 10 minutes. Ensure that the temperature of the sonication bath is below room temperature to avoid degradation of misoprostol. For solution (2) dilute a suitable volume of solution (1) to obtain a concentration equivalent to 10 μg of misoprostol per mL. For solution (3) heat 5 mL of solution (1) in a water bath at 75°C for 1 hour.

Operate with a flow rate of 1.5 mL per minute. As a detector use an ultraviolet spectrophotometer set at a wavelength of about 200 nm. Store the samples at 4°C during analysis using a cooled autosampler.

Inject 20 µL of solution (3). The test is not valid unless the peak-to-valley ratio (Hp/Hv) is at least 5.0, where Hp is the height above the extrapolated baseline of the peak due to impurity A (with a relative retention of about 0.95 with reference to misoprostol (retention time about 21 minutes)) and Hv is the height above the extrapolated baseline at the lowest point of the curve separating the peak due to impurity A from the peak due to misoprostol. Inject alternately 20 μL each of solutions (1) and (2).

In the chromatogram obtained with solution (1) the sum of the areas of peaks eluting with a relative retention between 0.80 and 0.98 with reference to misoprostol is not greater than 7.5 times the area of the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with solution (2) (1.5%). The area of any other impurity peak is not greater than the area of the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with solution (2) (0.2%). The sum of the areas of all peaks, other than the principal peak, is not greater than 10 times the area of the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with solution (2) (2.0%). Disregard any peak with an area less than 0.25 times the area of the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with solution (2) (0.05%).

DiastereoisomersCarry out the test as described under 1.14.4 High performance liquid chromatography using a stainless steel column (15 cm × 2.1 mm) packed with silica gel for chromatography R (3.5 μm).2 As the mobile phase use a mixture of 4 volumes of 2-propanol R, 96 volumes of heptane R and 0.1 volume of trifluoroacetic acid R.

As the test solution use 1.0 mg of the test substance per mL of a mixture of 4 volumes of 2-propanol R and 96 volumes of heptane R.

Maintain the column temperature at 25°C.

Operate with a flow rate of 0.5 mL per minute. As a detector use an ultraviolet spectrophotometer set at a wavelength of about 205 nm. Store the samples at 4°C during analysis using a cooled autosampler.

Inject 10 µL of the test solution.

The chromatogram shows two principal peaks due to misoprostol at retention times of about 14 and 16 minutes. The test is not valid unless the resolution between these two peaks is at least 2.0.

Measure the areas of the two peaks corresponding to misoprostol. The first peak of misoprostol is 45% –55% of the sum of the areas of the two peaks due to misoprostol.
