Operational Qualification Protocol for CCIT System in Ophthalmics

Objective: To validate the CCIT System for ensuring container closure integrity of sterile eye drops and eye ointments.

Scope: This protocol applies to the Operational Qualification of the CCIT System used in the QC/Production area for ophthalmic products.

Responsibilities:

  • Validation Team: Prepare and execute the OQ protocol.
  • Quality Assurance: Review and approve the OQ protocol and results.
  • Production Team: Provide necessary equipment and support during testing.

Prerequisites:

  • Completion of Installation Qualification (IQ).
  • Training of personnel on the CCIT System.
  • Availability of all necessary materials and equipment.

Equipment Description:

The CCIT System is designed for the assessment of container closure integrity through vacuum decay, helium, and high vacuum leak detection methods. It ensures the integrity of containers used for sterile ophthalmic products.

Test ID Procedure Acceptance Criteria Evidence
OQ-001 Conduct leak rate sensitivity audit trail. Leak rate must not exceed limits specified in URS Annex11. Audit trail report.
OQ-002 Verify system calibration. Calibration must be within specified ranges. Calibration certificate.
OQ-003 Perform system functionality test. System must operate without errors. Test run report.

Detailed Test Cases:
