Why

Objective – To understand Options for Describing Limits of Class 2 Solvents

Page 3: Residual Solvent Limit Calculation

Calculation of concentration limits in ppm for Residual Solvent

Concentration (ppm) = ----------------1000 X PDE

Dose

PDE =Permitted Daily Exposure, given in terms of mg/day.

Dose is given in g/day.

The concentration were calculated using equation by assuming a

product mass of 10 g administered daily.

Calculation of concentration limits in ppm for Residual Solvent

PDE = 4.1 mg per day, Dose = 10 g

Acetonitrile Limit (ppm) = ---------------- = --------------- = 410 ppm1000 X PDE

Dose

1000 X 4.1

Example - Acetonitrile Limit Calculation

PDE = 4.1 mg per day, Dose = 20 g

Acetonitrile Limit (ppm) = ---------------- = --------------- = 205 ppm1000 X PDE

Dose

1000 X 4.1

20

PDE = 4.1 mg per day, Dose = 5 g

Acetonitrile Limit (ppm) = ---------------- = --------------- = 820 ppm1000 X PDE

Dose

1000 X 4.1

Options for Describing Limits of Class 2 Solvents

Option 1

Option 2

Page 6: Residual Solvent Limit Calculation

Option 1

The concentration limits in ppm stated in ICH/USP/Guidelines can be used. These limits are considered acceptable for all substances, excipients or products.

Example 1 - Acetonitrile Limit Calculation

Component Amount in

formulation (g) Acetonitrile

Content (ppm) Daily exposure

(mg) Acetonitrile Limit

(4.1 mg/day)

Drug Substance 0.6 200 0.12 Pass as per option 1

Excipient 1 1.0 400 0.40 Pass as per option 1

Excipient 2 5.0 100 0.50 Pass as per option 1

Drug Product 6.6 155 1.02 Pass as per option 1

Component Amount in

formulation (g) Acetonitrile

Content (ppm) Daily exposure

(mg) Acetonitrile Limit

(4.1 mg/day)

Drug Substance 0.3 200 0.06 Pass as per option 1

Excipient 1 0.9 400 0.36 Pass as per option 1

Excipient 2 3.8 100 0.38 Pass as per option 1

Drug Product 5.0 160 0.80 Pass as per option 1

Component Amount in

formulation (g) Acetonitrile

Content (ppm) Daily exposure

(mg) Acetonitrile Limit

(4.1 mg/day)

Drug Substance 0.6 200 0.12 Pass as per option 1

Excipient 1 1.8 400 0.72 Pass as per option 1

Excipient 2 7.6 100 0.76 Pass as per option 1

Drug Product 10.0 160 1.60 Pass as per option 1

Option 1Example 2 - Acetonitrile Limit Calculation

Example 3 - Acetonitrile Limit Calculation

Page 8: Residual Solvent Limit Calculation

If all excipients and drug substances in a formulation meet the limits given in Option 1, then these components may be used in any proportion. No further calculation is necessary provided the daily dose does not exceed 10 g.

Products that are administered in doses greater than 10 g per day should be considered under Option 2.

Therefore this option may be applied if the daily dose is not known or fixed.

Option 1

Page 9: Residual Solvent Limit Calculation

Option 2

Option 2 may be applied by adding the amounts of a residual solvent present in each of the components of the drug product. The sum of the amounts of solvent per day should be less than that given by the PDE.

Example 4 - Acetonitrile Limit Calculation

Component Amount in

formulation (g) Acetonitrile

Content (ppm) Daily exposure

(mg) Acetonitrile Limit

(4.1 mg/day)

Drug Substance 0.3 800 0.24 As per option 1=?

Excipient 1 0.9 400 0.36 Pass as per option 1

Excipient 2 3.8 800 3.04 As per option 1=?

Drug Product 5.0 728 3.64 Pass as per option 2

Page 10: Residual Solvent Limit Calculation

Component Amount in

formulation (g) Acetonitrile

Content (ppm) Daily exposure

(mg) Acetonitrile Limit

(4.1 mg/day)

Drug Substance 0.3 800 0.24 As per option 1 or 2 =?

Excipient 1 0.9 2000 1.80 As per option 1 or 2 =?

Excipient 2 3.8 800 3.04 As per option 1 or 2 =?

Drug Product 5.0 1016 5.08 As per option 1 or 2 =?

Option 2Example 5 - Acetonitrile Limit Calculation

Page 11: Residual Solvent Limit Calculation

Option 2

In this example, the product meets neither the Option 1 nor the Option 2 limit according to this summation. The manufacturer could test the drug product to determine if the formulation process reduced the level of Acetonitrile.

If all of these steps fail to reduce the level of residual solvent, in exceptional cases the manufacturer could provide a summary of efforts made to reduce the solvent level to meet the guideline value, and provide a risk benefit analysis to support allowing the product to be utilized with residual solvent at a higher level.

If the level of Acetonitrile was not reduced during formulation to the allowed limit, then the manufacturer of the drug product should take other steps to reduce the amount of Acetonitrile in the drug product.
