    Study Notes

    Cleaning Validation Lifecycle - Stage 1

    • The first stage of the cleaning validation lifecycle involves characterizing the product and determining the worst-case soiling material.
    • This stage aims to identify key factors affecting cleaning and establish a robust cleaning process.
    • Ishikawa analysis is used to identify potential parameters influencing the cleaning process.
    • Definitive screening design helps to identify critical factors affecting the hardest-to-clean product.
    • Design of Experiments (DoE) is utilized to optimize cleaning process parameters for the hardest-to-clean product.
    • Product Characterization Assessment involves evaluating various aspects of the product, including its chemical composition, toxicity, solubility, and cleanability.
    • TACT (Time, Action, Concentration/Chemistry, Temperature) represents critical process parameters influencing cleaning effectiveness.
    • Active cleaning limits help define the acceptable level of contamination based on factors like batch size, potency, contact area, and toxicity.
    • The worst-case soiling material accounts for residues like active ingredients, decomposition products, microbial contamination, endotoxins, sanitizing agents, lubricants, environmental dust, and residual rinse water.
    • Designing the cleaning process considers the equipment being cleaned, the types of soils to be removed, cleaning methods, agents, mechanisms, parameters, and residue limits.
    • Soil types include actives, excipients, process materials, bioburden, and endotoxins.
    • Freshly deposited, dried, baked-on, and compacted soils are considered during cleanability evaluation.
    • Cleaning efficiency factors include cleaning solution temperature, cleaning agent concentration, solution contact time, and external energy.
    • Cleaning methods range from fixed CIP and portable CIP to parts washers, ultrasonic cleaning, and manual techniques (soak, brush, wipe, spray).
    • Residue limits represent the acceptable level of remaining residues after cleaning.
    • Residue limits are determined considering what residues need to be removed and how clean is clean.
    • Analytical methods used to measure residues can influence the cleaning process.
    • Residue-specific assays are unique to specific analytes, more expensive, and require validation for cleaning applications.
    • Residue non-specific assays are less expensive, have broader applications, and provide high precision but have lower specificity.
    • Rinse water testing provides a relatively easy and indirect measure of cleanliness using product-specific or non-specific assays.
    • Surface testing directly measures cleanliness through visual inspection and swabbing, and is more challenging to perform.
    • Sampling and testing methods include solvent rinse, water rinse, visual inspection, swabbing, and contact plates for microbiological analysis.
    • Visual detection can detect many compounds down to low levels.
