Objective:
This protocol outlines the Operational Qualification (OQ) for the Contained Transfer Port (RTP-like) system to ensure it meets the specified performance criteria and operational requirements.
Scope:
This OQ protocol applies to the Contained Transfer Port used in the production and containment of solid dosage forms, impacting product quality directly.
Responsibilities:
- Validation Team: Develop and execute the OQ protocol.
- Quality Assurance: Review and approve the protocol and results.
- Production Team: Provide access and support during testing.
Prerequisites:
- Installation Qualification (IQ) must be completed and approved.
- All personnel involved must be trained on the equipment and procedures.
Equipment Description:
The Contained Transfer Port is a closed transfer interface designed to maintain seal integrity during the transfer of materials in the production of solid dosage forms. It features docking interlocks to ensure safety and compliance.
| Test ID | Procedure | Acceptance Criteria | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| OQ-01 | Verify seal integrity during docking. | No leaks detected. | Leak test report. |
| OQ-02 | Check docking interlocks functionality. | All interlocks functional. | Interlock test report. |
Detailed Test Cases:
Test Case OQ-01: Verify Seal Integrity During Docking
Objective: Ensure that the seal remains intact during the docking process.
Procedure: Perform a leak test by applying pressure to the system during docking.
Acceptance Criteria: No leaks detected.
Evidence: Documented leak test results.
Test Case OQ-02: Check Docking Interlocks Functionality
Objective: Confirm that all interlocks engage and disengage as designed.
Procedure: Test each interlock by attempting to engage the dock without proper alignment.
Acceptance Criteria: All interlocks functional; system should not allow docking.
Evidence: Documented interlock test results.
Deviations:
Any deviations from the acceptance criteria must be documented and investigated. A root cause analysis should be conducted, and corrective actions should be implemented.
