Dear Mr. Yu:

尊敬的余先生：

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inspected your drug manufacturing facility, Bingbing Pharmaceutical (Hubei) Co. Ltd., FEI 3014538973, at No. 698 Bingbing Road, Economic Development Zone, Shiyan, Hubei, from May 7 to 10, 2019.

This warning letter summarizes significant violations of current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) regulations for finished pharmaceuticals. See 21 CFR, parts 210 and 211.

…翻譯…

美國食品藥品監(jiān)督管理局（FDA）于2019年5月7日至10日檢查了湖北兵兵藥業(yè)（集團(tuán)）有限公司。 本警告函匯總了成品藥CGMP法規(guī)的重大違規(guī)。詳見美國聯(lián)邦法規(guī)第21卷，第210和211章。

Because your methods, facilities, or controls for manufacturing, processing, packing, or holding do not conform to CGMP, your drug products are adulterated within the meaning of section 501(a)(2)(B) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act), 21 U.S.C. 351(a)(2)(B).

…翻譯…

因為你們的方法、設(shè)施、生產(chǎn)工藝、包裝或者儲存的方式不符合CGMP法規(guī)，你們的藥品根據(jù)《聯(lián)邦食品、藥品和化妝品法》（FD&C）第501(a)(2)(B)章節(jié)，《美國法典》第21卷第351(a)(2)(B)節(jié)被認(rèn)定為違規(guī)。

We reviewed your May 31, 2019, response to our Form FDA 483 in detail and acknowledge receipt of your subsequent correspondence.

…翻譯…

我們詳細(xì)審查了你們于2019年5月31日對FDA 483表格的回復(fù)，并確認(rèn)收到你們之后的回復(fù)。

During our inspection, our investigator observed specific violations including, but not limited to, the following.

…翻譯…

在檢查期間，我們的檢查員發(fā)現(xiàn)的具體違規(guī)包括但不限于如下。

1. Your firm failed to maintain written production, control, or distribution records specifically associated with a batch of a drug product for at least one year after the expiration date of the batch (21 CFR 211.180(a)).

…翻譯…

你們公司未能在一批藥品有效期后至少一年內(nèi)保持與該批藥品相關(guān)的書面的生產(chǎn)、控制或分銷記錄（《美國聯(lián)邦法規(guī)》第21卷第211.180（a）條）。

You manufactured drugs at your Wuhan facility at Building (b)(4), No. 5, Kangda Street, Longyang Avenue, Hanyang District, Wuhan, and then transferred drug production to your Hubei facility and closed the Wuhan facility. Your firm failed to maintain manufacturing records, raw material and finished product testing records, retain samples, stability samples, and other CGMP records for your over-the-counter (OTC) (b)(4) drug products manufactured at your Wuhan facility. During the inspection at the Hubei facility, you stated that you lost CGMP manufacturing documentation and drug product samples during the transfer of your manufacturing facility from Wuhan to Hubei in May 2018.

…翻譯…

你們在武漢市漢陽區(qū)龍陽大道康達(dá)街5號樓的武漢工廠生產(chǎn)藥品，然后將藥品生產(chǎn)轉(zhuǎn)移到湖北工廠并關(guān)閉了武漢工廠。但是未能為武漢工廠生產(chǎn)的非處方藥（OTC）保留生產(chǎn)記錄、原材料和成品測試記錄、樣品、穩(wěn)定性樣品和其他CGMP記錄。在湖北工廠檢查期間，你方聲明，你方在2018年5月從武漢轉(zhuǎn)移到湖北期間丟失了CGMP生產(chǎn)文件和藥品樣本。

In your response, you stated that you initiated an investigation to assess the scope of impacted product, will attempt to collect samples from the market to evaluate and take “all mandatory and necessary measures,” and will conduct a quality system evaluation using a third-party consultant. Your response is inadequate because you failed to appropriately address the impact of missing records and samples on drug products already on the market. Maintaining all manufacturing and testing records, as well as representative product samples, is critical to establish that your products meet their required quality attributes.

…翻譯…

在你們的回復(fù)中聲明，你們發(fā)起了一項調(diào)查，以評估受影響產(chǎn)品的范圍，將嘗試從市場收集樣品進(jìn)行評估并采取“所有強(qiáng)制性和必要的措施”，并將使用第三方顧問進(jìn)行質(zhì)量體系評估。你們的回復(fù)是不充分的，因為沒有適當(dāng)?shù)亟鉀Q丟失記錄和樣品對已經(jīng)上市的藥品的影響。維護(hù)所有的生產(chǎn)和測試記錄，以及有代表性的產(chǎn)品樣品，對于確定產(chǎn)品符合所要求的質(zhì)量屬性是至關(guān)重要的。

In response to this letter, provide:

…翻譯…

針對本函，請?zhí)峁?/p>

· A complete, independent assessment of documentation systems used throughout your manufacturing and laboratory operations to determine where documentation practices are insufficient. Include a detailed corrective action and preventive action (CAPA) plan that comprehensively remediates your firm’s documentation practices to ensure you retain attributable, legible, complete, original, accurate, contemporaneous records throughout your operation.

…翻譯…

對整個生產(chǎn)和實驗室操作過程中使用的文件系統(tǒng)進(jìn)行完整、獨立的評估，以確定記錄規(guī)范的不足之處。包括詳細(xì)的糾正措施和預(yù)防措施（CAPA）計劃，全面糾正公司的文記錄規(guī)范，以確保公司在整個經(jīng)營過程中保留可歸屬的、清晰的、完整的、原始的、準(zhǔn)確的、同期的記錄。

· A detailed risk assessment of drug products on the market without any manufacturing documentation and without retains or stability samples to support investigations and expiration dating. Specify actions, with timelines, that you will take in response to the risk assessment, such as customer notifications and initiating recalls.

2. Your firm failed to have, for each batch of drug product, appropriate laboratory determination of satisfactory conformance to final specifications for the drug product, including the identity and strength of each active ingredient, prior to release (21 CFR 211.165(a))

…翻譯…

你們未能對每批藥品進(jìn)行適當(dāng)?shù)膶嶒炇覝y定，以確定其是否符合藥品的最終規(guī)格（包括每種活性成分的特性和強(qiáng)度）。

Your firm released OTC drug products to the United States market without testing the identity and strength of each active ingredient. For example, your firm failed to test for the active ingredients, (b)(4), in your (b)(4)products. Testing is essential to ensuring that the drug products you manufacture meet established specifications for the required chemical attributes.

…翻譯…

你們公司向美國市場投放的非處方藥產(chǎn)品，沒有測試每種活性成分的特性和強(qiáng)度例如，沒有檢測產(chǎn)品中的活性成分。測試對于確保您生產(chǎn)的藥品符合所需化學(xué)特性的規(guī)范至關(guān)重要。

We acknowledge your commitment to discontinue the manufacture and distribution of (b)(4) products until analytical methods for (b)(4) active ingredients have been established and validated or verified. However, your response is inadequate. You failed to provide details for establishing that your OTC drug products in distribution meet their specifications.

…翻譯…

我們收到了你方承諾在活性成分分析方法建立、驗證或驗證之前停止生產(chǎn)和銷售產(chǎn)品。然而，你們的回復(fù)是不充分的，你們沒有提供詳細(xì)資料證明你的非處方藥產(chǎn)品符合規(guī)格。

In response to this letter, provide a list of chemical and microbial specifications, including test methods, used to analyze each lot of your drug products before a lot disposition decision. The list should include:

…翻譯…

針對本函，你們需要提供一份化學(xué)和微生物規(guī)格清單，包括測試方法，用來分析每一批藥品，然后再做一個批量處置的決定。清單應(yīng)該包括：

An action plan and timelines for conducting full chemical and microbiological testing of retain samples to determine the quality of all batches of drug product distributed to the United States within expiry as of the date of this letter.

…翻譯…

一份行動計劃和時間表，用于對保留樣品進(jìn)行全面的化學(xué)和微生物測試，以確定自本函日期起有效期內(nèi)在美國銷售的所有批次藥品的質(zhì)量。

A summary of all results obtained from testing retain samples from each batch. If such testing reveals substandard quality drug products, take rapid corrective actions, such as notifying customers and product recalls.

…翻譯…

從測試中獲得的所有結(jié)果的匯總，保留每個批次的樣品。如果檢測發(fā)現(xiàn)藥品質(zhì)量不合格，應(yīng)迅速采取措施，如通知顧客和產(chǎn)品召回。

3. Your firm’s quality control unit failed to exercise its responsibility to ensure drug products manufactured are in compliance with CGMP, and meet established specifications for identity, strength, quality, and purity (21 CFR 211.22).

…翻譯…

你們公司的質(zhì)量控制部門未能履行其職責(zé)，以確保所生產(chǎn)的藥品符合CGMP的要求，符合規(guī)定的特性、強(qiáng)度、質(zhì)量和純度規(guī)范。

During the inspection, our investigator observed that your quality unit (QU) did not provide adequate oversight for the manufacture of your OTC (b)(4). For example, your QU failed to ensure:

…翻譯…

在檢查過程中，我們的調(diào)查員發(fā)現(xiàn)你們公司的質(zhì)量部門沒有對公司的OTC的生產(chǎn)提供足夠的監(jiān)督。例如，他們未能確保：

Full testing of drug products and review of their results are performed prior to batch release.

Contract laboratory used for identity testing is qualified following your written procedures.

Cleaning validation of shared (b)(4) tanks include justifications for the worst-case sampling locations following your cleaning validation procedure.

Written procedures for sampling and testing of the (b)(4) system are followed.

Procedures to review electronic data generated from GC, HPLC, IR, and TOC systems are written and followed.

Controlled records, including logs, are maintained to track receipt of all components used to manufacture drug products.

Every OOS result is appropriately investigated and each investigation is extended to all affected batches, as applicable.

…翻譯…

In your response, you admitted that due to cash flow problems you “were unable to ensure all products were completely tested and ensure conformance with all pre-determined specification prior to be shipped out”. You also submitted numerous CAPA to address each example of your quality unit failures cited above.

…翻譯…

在你們的回復(fù)中，你們承認(rèn)由于資金問題，你們“無法確保所有產(chǎn)品在出廠前都經(jīng)過了完整的測試，并確保符合所有預(yù)先確定的規(guī)格”還提交了許多CAPA，以解決上面提到的每個質(zhì)量問題。

Because you failed to include supporting documentation, your response is inadequate and cannot be fully evaluated. You also failed to conduct a comprehensive review of your quality unit to identify deficiencies. You did not provide evidence that you have implemented procedures that ensure adequate control over your drug manufacturing processes. In addition, you failed to include a plan to address the quality of your drugs that were manufactured without appropriate quality oversight.

…翻譯…

因為你們沒有包含輔助文件，所以你們的回復(fù)不充分，無法進(jìn)行全面評估。也沒有對質(zhì)量部門進(jìn)行全面的審查，以找出不足之處。沒有提供證據(jù)證明已經(jīng)實施了確保對藥品生產(chǎn)過程進(jìn)行充分控制的程序。此外，也沒有一個計劃，以解決你的藥品是在沒有適當(dāng)?shù)馁|(zhì)量監(jiān)督下生產(chǎn)的。

In response to this letter, provide:

…翻譯…

針對本函，請?zhí)峁?/p>

· A comprehensive assessment and remediation plan to ensure your QU is given the authority and resources to effectively function. The assessment should include, but not be limited to:

4. Your firm failed to maintain an adequate written record of each complaint (21 CFR 211.198(b)).

…翻譯…

你們公司沒有對每一項投訴保留充分的書面記錄。

You firm failed to maintain a complete and accurate record of your complaint investigations. You opened investigations B-18002 and B-19001 in response to complaints of poor (b)(4) for batches manufactured in Wuhan. In these investigations you stated that you evaluated reserve samples and found no deficiencies. However, you had previously stated that all reserve samples were lost for batches manufactured at your Wuhan site and therefore reserve samples were not available for evaluation.

…翻譯…

你們公司未能保留針對武漢生產(chǎn)的批次的不良投訴的調(diào)查的完整和準(zhǔn)確記錄，你們展開的調(diào)查B-18002和B-19001，在這些調(diào)查中，表示你們評估了保留樣品，沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)任何缺陷。但是，你們之前已經(jīng)聲明，武漢工廠生產(chǎn)的批次的所有保留樣品都丟失，因此無法對保留樣品進(jìn)行評估。

In your response, you stated that testing was performed on reserve samples manufactured in your Hubei facility. Your response is inadequate because testing a batch that is different from the complaint batch does not provide you with batch specific information needed to identify potential quality defects in the complaint batch.

…翻譯…

在你們的回復(fù)中，聲明測試是在湖北工廠生產(chǎn)的保留樣品上進(jìn)行的。你們的回復(fù)不充分，因為測試與投訴批次是不同的批次，并不能提供識別投訴批次中潛在質(zhì)量缺陷和所需的批次特定信息。

In response to this letter, provide:

…翻譯…

針對本函，請?zhí)峁?/p>
