Introduction

After more than 15 years the EU has released a new final version of Annex 11. It has been in effect as a regulation since July 2011 but only recently EMA started to enforce the Annex. Together with the updated EU Chapter 4 on documentation it is the EU equivalent to FDA's Part 11. It also addresses the regulatory needs of modern IT equipment and when implemented right, also has business benefits through reduced failure rates. The document is a good framework for validation and use of computer systems and handling electronic records in different regulated environments. And since Annex 11 has been adopted by PIC/S it will have a very high impact on more than 40 countries, including USA and Canada, all EU members and all ASEAN member countries. On the other hand the Annex leaves a lot of room for interpretation that raises lots of questions.

Key Questions related to the contents of the new Annex are:

What is the status of this Annex: guidance or regulation?
What are the or 'new' requirements?
Are there new roles and responsibilities to be defined?
Does validation require a specific lifecycle model?
How does it compare with FDA's new interpretation for Part 11?
The Annex requires to base decisions on justified risk assessment. How should this be done?
Is electronic audit trail always required?
How to design data systems for data integrity?
What are the recommendations of the updated documentation chapter 4 related to electronic raw data and hybrid systems, e.g., do we have to keep electronic raw data in addition to paper printouts?
Are e-signatures mentioned and what are the requirements?
What does it mean: it has been adopted by PIC/S
What is similarity/difference to GAMP 5

How does the this audio seminar help:

Answers will be presented by Dr. Ludwig Huber in a new interactive audio seminar. During the seminar, the speaker will present strategies and give practical recommendations. After the seminar, an extensive list of reference material like SOPs, templates and examples will help immediate and cost effective implementation.

Annex 11 addresses all computer and data management requirements, including validation.
Most of them are also required by Part 11 and the related guidance document, but also through FDA inspection and enforcement practices. The seminar will go through requirements and give recommendations on how to implement them from the view of FDA and European inspectors.
