This FDA has been issued a Warning Letter to the Chinese manufacturer Lumis Global Pharmaceuticals on 2 March 2017 is based on FDA inspections in September 2016.
Specifically, the certificates of analysis (certificates of analysis, COA) were criticised. The issued certificates did not contain all relevant information on the quality that would have been necessary for the customer.
CGMP Deviations
1. Failure to transfer all quality or regulatory information received from the API manufacturer to your customers.
2. Failure to control the API repackaging, relabeling, and holding operations in order to avoid mix-ups and loss of API identity.
3. Failure of your quality unit to exercise its responsibility to ensure the API relabeled at your facility are in compliance with CGMP.
The FDA Warning Letter states:
"You omitted the name and address of the original API manufacturers on the certificates of analysis (COA) you issued to your customers, and did not include copies of the original batch certificate.
For multiple API, you generated COA by copying and pasting analytical results from the original API manufacturers, replacing the manufacturers' information with your letterhead, then issuing these COA to your customers. You omitted critical information, including the original manufacturers' names and addresses and the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of laboratories that performed the testing.
Customers and regulators rely on COA for information about the quality and sourcing of drugs and their components. Omitting information from COA compromises supply-chain accountability and traceability, and may put consumers at risk."
