WHO-GMP Standards for Oncology Drug Manufacturing

WHO establishes stringent parameters for manufacturing oncology medicines.

The anti-cancer drugs are highly toxic, potent medicines.

They are developed in controlled environments with safety parameters.

Facility design/containment systems – 

Dedicated facilities- 

These are separate blocks or rooms for manufacturing toxic drugs.

Dedicated blocks for multi-step processes like granulation, blending, and tableting.

  • Segregated material flow
  • Restricted access barrier system
  • Air-lock systems between multi-chamber rooms.
  • Air-tight architecture, sealed floors and roof

Air conditioning systems (HVAC) – 

It is used for clean room standardization and environmental isolation.

  • Maintaining pressure variants in toxic zones.
  • HEPA filters for air filtration.
  • Unidirectional airflow
  • Temperature and humidity control

 Personnel Safety – 

The anticancer drugs are highly toxic and irreversibly damage living tissue.

The manufacturers must ensure high safety measures for the workers.

Cytotoxic drug handling training must be provided.

  • Use of protective gear /garments
  • Air borne drug /particulate matter monitoring.
  • Decontamination facilities like dedicated shower or eye wash stations.

Validation process- 

It ensures that each activity and process is under permissible limits.

  • Equipment /instrument validation
  • Operational validation
  • Design validation
  • Installation validation
  • Performance validation
  • Cleaning validation

Waste product management – 

The residue of the oncology drugs is highly toxic.

WHO recommends safe disposal of toxic components.

  • Separate in/out bags.
  • Chemical treating systems
  • Segregation for biological, hazardous, or general waste
  • Fumigation exhausts to neutralize toxic vapors.

Why is a stringent regulatory framework required for oncology drug manufacturing?

The manufacturing process of oncology drugs demands high precision and sterility.

These are cytotoxic drugs.

These are lethal and directly kill viable cells.

Requirement for precision- 

They have narrow safety margins.

Large doses damage the organs.

A lowered dose may lead to treatment failure.

Safety of personnel- 

Spilling or touching the drug component may damage human cells.

It can cause serious complications.

Dedicated flow lines- 

This prevents cross-contamination.

A trace of the cytotoxic drug clinging to the pipes may get incorporated into other medicines through the same pipeline.

The Air flow systems- 

Any vapor or fumes of the toxic product in the air may lead to hazardous results when inhaled.

The particulate matter in the air may contaminate other general products.

Cholesterol Treatment and Drugs – A Complete Guide

Understanding Cholesterol 

Cholesterol is a waxy or fatty fluid in the body.

It is widely utilized to make vitamins and hormones.

  • Forms the outer cell wall layer
  • Forms hormones like estrogen and testosterone
  • Aids digestion
  • Protects nerve fibers

The main types of cholesterol- 

  • HDL – These are high-density lipoproteins.

It is also called good cholesterol.

It is the clearance of extra cholesterol from the body.

The excess cholesterol is carried in the blood to the liver.

The higher levels indicate the body is clearing lipids.

  • LDL: It is also called bad cholesterol.

These are low-density lipoproteins.

This indicates the blood is unable to carry extra cholesterol.

The lipids build up in the arteries.

It increases the risk of heart disease.

  • Triglycerides – These are the fat cells in the body.

These store extra energy when the body is unable to burn calories.

The extra calories are stored in the form of triglycerides.

The normal cholesterol ranges- 

  • Total cholesterol – Less than 200mg/dl
  • LDL – Less than 100mg /dl
  • HDL- It must be 60mg/dl or higher
  • Triglycerides – It must be less than 150mg/dl

What symptoms must one look for in high cholesterol?

It does not show any physical signs.

The rare symptoms include-

  • Yellow patches around the eyes
  • Fatty bumps or growths on the skin
  • Cholesterol deposition around the iris in the eye.

In the long term, it leads to –

  • Chest pain
  • Shortness of breath
  • Leg pain

Why is HDL good cholesterol? 

HDLs are protective cholesterol.

It eliminates the extra cholesterol from the body.

It carries it to the liver for breakdown.

It is protective in nature.

It prevents blockages in the arteries or heart.

What is the negative effect of cholesterol on the heart? 

Cholesterol harms the body in several ways.
