三、WHO GMP中的描述
Quality management in the drug industry 医药行业的质量管理
In the drug industry at large, quality management is usually defined as the aspect of management function that determines and implements the “quality policy”,i.e. the overall intention and direction of an organization regarding quality, as formally expressed and authorized by top management. The basic elements of quality management are:
在大的医药行业中，质量管理常常被定义为管理职能中规定并执行“质量政策”的那方面职能。比如组织质量相关的总体意图和方向，由最高管理层正式表达和授权。质量管理的基本要素有：
— an appropriate infrastructure or “quality system”, encompassing the organizational structure, procedures, processes and resources;
一个适当的基础架构或“质量体系”，包含组织架构、程序、流程和资源；
— systematic actions necessary to ensure adequate confidence that a product
(or service) will satisfy given requirements for quality. The totality of these
actions is termed “quality assurance”.
确保一个产品（或服务）有足够信心会满足质量要求的不要的系统化的行动。全部这些行动被称之为“质量保证”。
Within an organization, quality assurance serves as a management tool. In
contractual situations, quality assurance also serves to generate confidence in
the supplier. The concepts of quality assurance, GMP and quality control are
interrelated aspects of quality management. They are described here in order to emphasize their relationship and their fundamental importance to the production and control of pharmaceutical products.
在一个组织内，质量保证是一种管理工具。在委托情况下，质量保证也用于产生对供应商的信心。质量保证、GMP和质量控制的概念是质量管理的相关要素。它们在这里描述是为了强调它们的关系和它们对于药品生产和控制的根本的重要性。
1. Quality assurance 质量保证
1.1 Principle. 原则
“Quality assurance” is a wide-ranging concept covering all matters that individually or collectively influence the quality of a product. It is the totality of the arrangements made with the object of ensuring that pharmaceutical products are of the quality required for their intended use. Quality assurance therefore incorporates GMP and other factors, including those outside the scope of this guide such as product design and development.
“质量保证”是一个涵盖所有个体或集体影响产品质量的因素很宽泛的概念。它是做出的确保药品质量符合其预定用途的目标的所有安排的总和。所以质量保证整合了GMP和其他因素，包括那些不在本指南范围比如产品设计和开发内的那些因素。
1.2 The system of quality assurance appropriate to the manufacture of pharmaceutical products should ensure that:
适用于药品生产的质量保证体系应该确保：
(a) pharmaceutical products are designed and developed in a way that takes
account of the requirements of GMP and other associated codes such as
those of good laboratory practice (GLP) 1 and good clinical practice (GCP);
药品在一定程度上考虑GMP和其他相关法规比如GLP和GCP的要求进行设计和开发；
(b) production and control operations are clearly specified in a written form
and GMP requirements are adopted;
用书面的形式明确规定生产和控制操作并采用GMP要求；
(c) managerial responsibilities are clearly specified in job descriptions;
在岗位描述中明确规定管理职责；
(d) arrangements are made for the manufacture, supply and use of the correct
starting and packaging materials;
为正确的起始物料和包装材料的生产、供应和使用做出一些安排；
(e) all necessary controls on starting materials, intermediate products, and
bulk products and other in-process controls, calibrations, and validations
are carried out;
实施所有对起始物料、中间产品和最终产品的必要的控制和其他中间过程控制、校验和验证；
(f) the finished product is correctly processed and checked, according to the
defined procedures;
按照规定的程序正确地加工和检查最终产品；
(g) pharmaceutical products are not sold or supplied before the authorized
persons (see also sections 9.11 and 9.12) have certified that each production batch has been produced and controlled in accordance with the requirements of the marketing authorization and any other regulations relevant to the production, control and release of pharmaceutical products;
在被授权的人员确认每批产品已经按照上市许可和其他与药品的生产、控制和放行相关的法规生产和控制前药品不能销售或供应；
(h) satisfactory arrangements exist to ensure, as far as possible, that the pharmaceutical products are stored by the manufacturer, distributed, and subsequently handled so that quality is maintained throughout their shelf-life;
存在尽可能确保药品由生产企业储存、销售和后续处理的满意的安排以确保质量在它们整个货架期都得到保持；
(i) there is a procedure for self-inspection and/or quality audit that regularly
appraises the effectiveness and applicability of the quality assurance
system;
有一个定期评价质量保证体系的质量和适用性的自检和/或质量审计程序；
(j) deviations are reported, investigated and recorded;
偏差被报告、调查和记录；
(k) there is a system for approving changes that may have an impact on
product quality;
有批准可能对产品质量有影响的变更；
(l) regular evaluations of the quality of pharmaceutical products should be
conducted with the objective of verifying the consistency of the process
and ensuring its continuous improvement.
应该执行对药品质量的定期评价，目标是确认工艺的一致性并确保其持续改进。
1.3 The manufacturer must assume responsibility for the quality of the pharmaceutical products to ensure that they are fit for their intended use, comply with the requirements of the marketing authorization and do not place patients at risk due to inadequate safety, quality or efficacy. The attainment of this quality objective is the responsibility of senior management and requires the participation and commitment of staff in many different departments and at all levels within the company, the company’s suppliers, and the distributors. To achieve the quality objective reliably there must be a comprehensively designed and correctly implemented system of quality assurance incorporating GMP and quality control. It should be fully documented and its effectiveness monitored. All parts of the quality assurance system should be adequately staffed with competent personnel, and should have suitable and sufficient premises, equipment, and facilities.
生产企业必须承担药品质量的职责以确保它们适用于其既定的用途，符合上市许可的要求并且没有因为安全性、质量和功效不足对患者产生风险。达到这个质量目标是高层管理者的职责需要公司内不同部门和所有层级的员工、公司的供应商和经销商的参与和承诺。为了可靠地达到质量目标必须有一个全面设计和正确实施的质量保证结合GMP和质量控制的体系。这个体系应该完全文件化并监控其有效性。质量保证体系的所有部分都要配备足够的有资质的人员并且应该合适和足够的厂房、设备和设施。
2. Good manufacturing practices for pharmaceutical products (GMP)
药品的GMP
2.1 Good manufacturing practice is that part of quality assurance which ensures that products are consistently produced and controlled to the quality standards appropriate to their intended use and as required by the marketing authorization. GMP are aimed primarily at diminishing the risks inherent in any
pharmaceutical production. Such risks are essentially of two types: cross contamination (in particular of unexpected contaminants) and mix-ups
(confusion) caused by, for example, false labels being put on containers. Under GMP:
GMP是质量保证的一部分，确保产品可以被持续地生产和控制以符合适用其预期用途和满足上市许可的质量标准。GMP的主要目标是减少药品生产的固有风险。这些风险基本有两个类型：交叉污染（特别是非预期的污染）和混乱（混淆）例如由贴在容器上的错误标签引起的。在GMP下：
(a) all manufacturing processes are clearly defined, systematically reviewed in
the light of experience, and shown to be capable of consistently manufacturing pharmaceutical products of the required quality that comply with their specifications;
所有生产工艺都要明确规定、根据经验系统审核并证明其能够有能力持续一致地生产要求符合它们标准的质量的药品；

and instructions have in fact been taken and that the quantity and quality
of the product are as expected; any significant deviations are fully recorded
and investigated;
在生产中做记录（手工和/或通过记录仪）以显示所有由规定的程序和规程要求的所有步骤都已经在事实上被执行，产品的数量和质量跟期望的一样；任何重大偏差都被完整记录并调查；
(g) records covering manufacture and distribution, which enable the complete
history of a batch to be traced, are retained in a comprehensible and accessible form;
