Introduction

ICH Q10 describes a comprehensive model for an effective pharmaceutical quality system that is based on International Standards Organisation (ISO 9001) quality concepts, includes applicable Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations and complements ICH Q8 "Pharmaceutical Development" and ICH Q9 "Quality Risk Management" and ICH Q11 "Development and manufacture of drug substances".

ICH Q10 is a model for a pharmaceutical quality system that can be implemented throughout the different stages of a product lifecycle and much of the content of ICH Q10 is applicable to manufacturing sites is currently specified by regional GMP requirements.

ICH Q10 supports an effective pharmaceutical quality system to enhance the quality and availability of medicines around the world in the interest of public health. Implementation of ICH Q10 throughout the product lifecycle should facilitate innovation and continual improvement and strengthen the link between pharmaceutical development and manufacturing activities.

Applicability of ISO to Drug and Biotech manufacturers

The ISO 9001:2008 Standard provides an excellent framework to develop a Quality System fully compliant with the PIC/S requirements as regulated by the TGA in Australia.

Whilst an ISO 9001 Quality System is not a specific requirement of the USA's Food and Drug Administration for drug manufacturers it is recommended as it which assists in compliance to the Code of Federal Regulations; in particular the 21 CFR 210 and 211.
