In today's pharmaceutical landscape, data integrity has emerged as a critical aspect of regulatory inspections, with far-reaching consequences for both manufacturers and regulatory agencies. Maintaining data integrity is not just a regulatory expectation; it is vital for ensuring product quality, patient safety, and the overall reputation of pharmaceutical organizations.
In this transformative 2-day course, we will equip you with the knowledge and skills to navigate the complex world of data integrity within the pharmaceutical industry. Our agenda is carefully curated to address the key areas of concern and provide you with practical insights and regulatory guidance.
Day 1 of the Data Integrity Excellence in Pharma Masterclass will delve into the historical background of data integrity, its definitions, and its critical role in ensuring patient safety and product efficacy. We will explore the evolution of GxP regulations, the impact of data integrity on regulatory enforcement, and the significance of early data integrity cases. Regulatory expectations, including ALCOA and ALCOA+ principles, static and dynamic records, and essential elements of data governance, will be thoroughly examined. We will also address data integrity risks in sample analysis and production, investigating data integrity problems, and the importance of metadata, audit trails, and audit trail review.
On Day 2, we will focus on managing computerized data systems, including compliance with regulatory guidelines such as 21 CFR Part 11, EU Annex 11, and GAMP 5. You will gain insights into computerized system validation, software testing, and conducting data integrity audits. We will discuss client audits, regulatory inspections, and effective response strategies for non-conformance observations.
The course will equip you with the knowledge and tools to effectively manage client audits and regulatory inspections, including evaluating quality risk, mitigating data integrity risks, and responding to non-conformance observations.
