Chromatography resins used for purifying biopharmaceuticals are generally dedicated to a single product. In good manufacturing practice (GMP) facilities that manufacture a limited amount of any particular product, this practice can result in the resin being used for a fraction of its useful life. A methodology for extending resin reuse to multiple products is described. With this methodology, resin and column performance, product carryover, and cleaning effectiveness are continually monitored to ensure that product quality is not affected by multiproduct resin reuse (MRR). is evaluated in terms of (a) system suitability parameters, such as peak-shape and transition, and height equivalent theoretical plate (HETP) data; (b) key operating parameters, such as flow rate, inlet pressure, and pressure drop across the column; and (c) process performance parameters, such as impurity profiles, product quality, and yield. Historical data are used to establish process capability limits (PCLs) for these parameters. Operation within the PCLs provides assurance that column integrity and binding capacity of the resin are not affected by MRR. defined as the carryover of the previously processed product (A) into a dose of the subsequently processed product (B) (CO), should be acceptable from a predictive patient safety standpoint. A methodology for determining CO from first principles and setting acceptance limits for cleaning validation is described. is evaluated by performing a blank elution run after inter-campaign cleaning and prior to product changeover. The acceptance limits for product carryover (CO) are more stringent for MRR than for single-product resin reuse. Thus, the inter-campaign cleaning process should be robust enough to consistently meet the more stringent acceptance limits for MRR. Additionally, the analytical methods should be sensitive enough to adequately quantify the concentration of the previously processed product (A) and its degradants in the eluent.General considerations for designing small-scale chromatographic studies for process development are also described. These studies typically include process-cycling runs with multiple products followed by viral clearance studies with a panel of model viruses. Small-scale studies can be used to optimize cleaning parameters, predict resin performance and product quality, and estimate the number of multiproduct purification cycles that can be run without affecting product quality. The proposed methodology is intended to be broadly applicable; however, it is acknowledged that alternative approaches may be more appropriate for specific scenarios.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
