National Institute of Biologicals
It is a pleasure for me to present the Annual Report and Audited Statement of Accounts of National Institute of Biologicals (NIB) for the year 2013-14. The achievements of NIB are due to shared dedication of scientists to core values of quality of biological and bio-therapeutic products used in diagnosis and treatment of various diseases.
NIB has been performing Quality Evaluation of biological and bio-therapeutic products including Albumin, Normal and Specific Immunoglobulin, Coagulation Factor VIII & IX, Insulin and its analogues, Erythropoietin, Filgrastim, Interferon, Streptokinase, Follicle Stimulating Hormone, Glucose Test Strip, Immunodiagnostic Kits (HIV-Ab, HCV-Ab, HBsAg, and Syphilis) and Blood Grouping Reagents etc. in its various State-of-the-art Laboratories and Animal House by following various Pharmacopoeial conformance and requirements of manufacturers’ specifications. In addition, standardisation and validation studies of many viral and bacterial vaccines, Allergen, NAT as well as Rituximab are going on.
The Institute has a proper Quality Management System as per ISO 17025 which is evident from the achievements of accreditations from the NABL, Department of Science & Technology, Govt. of India on 36 chemical and 34 biological tests conducted by the different laboratories. Steps have also been initiated to declare the Institute as Central Drugs Laboratory (CDL) for 12 additional biologicals and bio-therapeutic products tested by three laboratories. Draft notification in this regard has been issued by the Ministry.
NIB during this period has performed Quality Evaluation of 1812 batches of 120 different types of various biologicals and bio-therapeutic products which is much more than tested so far. With regard to renewal of contract of additional manpower, the Institute after the approval of the ministry has renewed the contract of 129 staff on contract basis. Recruitment Rules (RR) of the Scientist have been revised and submitted to the Ministry for approval. A separate proposal has also been submitted to the Ministry for creation of 43 regular posts.
The ties between NIB, CDSCO and IPC have been strengthened by having close interaction and meetings regarding Quality Evaluation of Biological and newer Bio-therapeutic drugs, preparation of Sera Panel,
reviewing and up-gradation of existing Monographs and development newer Monographs for inclusion in newer edition of Indian Pharmacopoeia (IP). 27 Monographs in this regard have been published in IP 2014.
Successful participation of Scientists in different scientific meetings, External Quality Assessment Scheme (EQAS), NRL, Australia; European Directorate of Quality Medicines (EDQM) France, CMC, Vellore and regular supply of National Reference Standard of Insulin as well as Sera Panel of HIV-Ab, HCV-Ab, HBsAg to the indigenous manufacturers are some of the important achievements. Scientists have also successfully participated with NIBSC, UK in collaborative studies conducted on 1st IS for biosynthetic human insulin and 1st IS for human pegylated G-CSF.
A Centralised Haemovigilance Programme was launched across the country during December, 2012 with an objective to track Adverse Reactions / Events and Incidence associated with Blood Transfusion and Blood product Administration (Haemovigilance) and to help identify trends, recommend best practices and interventions required to improve patient care and safety. In order to collect and collate the data pertaining to Haemovigilance coming from medical institutions all over the country, a software “Haemo-Vigil” has been developed by IT Division of the Institute. The NIB has organised 15 CMEs across the country besides publishing three Haemovigilance News Letters. It also aims at becoming a member of International Haemovigilance network.
NIB is making sincere efforts to live up to its mandate. It strives to assist the Government in its endeavour to provide quality biological and biotherapeutic products to all patients. I hope that with its committed scientific and technical manpower and collaborative work, NIB will continue to provide safe, potent and efficacious biologicals and biotherapeutic drugs for promoting and protecting public health.

3. Aim and scope:
Human plasma is a source of important medicinal products which are obtained by a combination of large-scale processing steps known as “fractionation”. It is important that these products have an appropriate quality and safety profile. Plasma contains several therapeutically important proteins, currently more than 25 of them are commercially available to treat life-threatening diseases.
Plasma has limited utility in its raw form for various coagulopathies, plasma exchange, etc., but is one such important blood component which can be further processed to make many more lifesaving proteins of immense clinical significance. Such proteins are known as Plasma Derived Proteins (PDP). Example of PDP include Albumin, coagulant proteins such as Coagulation Factor VIII & Factor IX, immunoglobulins such as Normal Immunoglobulin for Intravenous use (IVIg), Hyperimmune sera e.g. Hepatitis B Immunoglobulin (HBIg), Tetanus Ig etc. Plasma forms the
raw material for the manufacture of Plasma Derived Proteins (PDP). Currently plasma derived proteins are manufactured within the country in limited quantity by existing Plasma Fractionation Centers. These centers fractionate the unused plasma recovered from whole blood at various licensed blood component separation units of the country. Significant quantity is obtained through import from other countries.
Plasma-derived medicines produced today are safe, efficacious and available in large quantities. The cost of therapy remains the main barrier for access to these drugs in the emerging countries. The use of recovered plasma which is currently destroyed by many blood centers could alleviate some of these barriers in some countries.
The market for blood plasma has shown continuous growth in the past years growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 10% over the past decade, and is projected to expand steadily in the years to come.
Key factors contributing to growth within the market include the increase in bleeding disorders and related diseases which require an increased usage of blood plasma products. Ageing population is on the constant rise worldwide and the aged people are prone to develop diseases requiring more demand of blood derivatives like Immunoglobulin.
Furthermore, economic growth is also responsible for higher utilization of blood plasma derivatives. New proteins are being discovered in blood plasma, which are being put to use for treatment of various diseases.
New improved treatments are being developed to address the unmet needs related to blood disorders, autoimmune

diseases and liver function impairment such as IVIG, albumin, clotting factors amongst others. These treatments are all derived from human blood plasma.
Despite, several factors suggesting future growth of the market, the high prices of blood plasma products continues to be a significant challenge. Furthermore, even in the wake of improving economies and rising GDP’s, income disparities keep the use of plasma derived products beyond the reach of numerous patients.
The leading players of the blood plasma market include: Baxter, Grifols, CSL, and Octapharma, among others, competing mainly on the basis of product pricing and performance, supply of the products, and continuous offering of new and innovative plasma derivatives.
India is a major importer of plasma derived medicines such as Human albumin, immunoglobulins, coagulation factors etc. A few Indian companies are importing bulk products and processing them indigenously and some are manufacturing such products using plasma available in the country. Since these are products derived from human plasma, consideration should be given to the following factors:
Microbial contamination may occur and
may lead to the accumulation of Pyrogens;
Viruses and other adventitious agents may be introduced by reagents during manufacture (e.g., enzymes from tissue extracts or monoclonal antibodies used for affinity chromatography);
The methods of manufacture may introduce process related impurities such as proteins, solvents, detergents, and antibodies or other ligands from chromatography;
Methods of manufacture may modify the product resulting in adverse consequences for recipients, for example by the formation of product related impurities, such as neo-antigens, or by compromising the biological activity of the active component, e.g. by activation of coagulation factors leading to enhanced thrombogenicity. This is particularly of concern for steps introduced to inactivate or remove viral contamination which may affect the quality or yield of products.
4. scientific services undertaken during 2013 –2014

3. Aim and scope:
Recognition of the importance of standardization of diagnostic and therapeutic extracts has steadily gained ground over the past decades. Optimal safety of immunotherapy was originally the main driving force behind the efforts to improve standardization.
The number of patients suffering from allergy and asthma is increasing rapidly in both the urban and rural regions of India. According to World Allergy Organization 20-30% of people in India are suffering from one or more allergic diseases and about 25 percent of population, including children, suffers with respiratory allergy. Because the prevalence of allergy has increased to such an extent, allergy must be regarded as a major healthcare problem. For identification of offending allergens in these patients, various diagnostic tests are performed which is followed by administration of immunotherapy with the causative allergens. Both, the diagnostic efficiency as well as therapeutic efficacy of these procedures depends on the bio-potency of these allergen extracts.
Presently, in India, patients are diagnosed and treated with crude, aqueous allergen
extracts, which have not been properly characterized or standardized, because procedures and reagents are not available for their quality control. Moreover, there is no monograph available on Allergens except European Pharmacopoeia which may not be applicable in Indian context. Therefore, there is an urgent need to undertake a systematic and comprehensive work to develop techniques, prepare reference reagents and generate parameters for their quality control.
Considering the above facts and in view of the mandate of National Institute of Biologicals (NIB), work on allergens is undertaken to i) identify, isolate, purify and characterize major and minor allergens of clinically important indigenous allergen extracts, ii) prepare their database(s), and iii) develop methods and reagents for their quality control. This will enable us to lay down quantitative limits for their quality control. The preparation of in-house reference allergen extracts along with allergen standardization shall also help in ensuring uniform bio-potency in allergen extracts marketed by various manufacturers in India. This will facilitate availability of allergen extracts of appropriate bio-potency for better patient care in our country i.e. the diagnosis and immunotherapy of allergy patients. To begin with two clinically important allergens, namely cockroach (P. americana) and Moth, were selected in a consultative meeting of experts held at NIB.
4. scientific services undertaken, including name and no. of quality control tests performed for each biological product as per the pharmacopoeia.
There is no monograph available in Indian Pharmacopoeia on allergens.
Project entitled “Development of Techniques and Reagents for Quality Control of Clinically Important Indigenous Allergen Extracts” was
91
National Institute of Biologicals
undertaken for standardization of Allergen extracts in India. The proposed work was undertaken in collaboration with Metro Hospital Noida. The ethical clearance has been obtained from fourth IHEC meeting held on Mar 25th, 2014.
Standardization of tests like Protein estimation, Carbohydrate estimation, SDS-PAGE, ELISA &Western Blotting etc. is being done as per published literature.
5. immunochemical Tests with Allergen Extracts:
5.1 Preparation of cockroach Extracts: A total of six Cockroach Whole body extracts
(E1, E3,E5,E7,E8,E9) were prepared using ammonium bicarbonate precipitation, defatting with diethyl ether, extraction in NH4HCO3, dialysis (Mol. cut off 3.5kD), filtration and lyophilization. The freeze dried extracts were further used for performing various immunochemical assays.
5.2 Protein Estimation in the extract of Periplaneta americana (Cockroach): Protein content in all of six extracts were determined using standardized Modified Lowry method with BSA as standard. Figure 1 below represents standard curve for determination of protein content in extract E3& E5.
figure 1: The figure shows the standard curve generated by using different concentrations
of BsA as standard showing linear relationship between concentration and absorbance. concentration of extract sample was determined from the standard curve.
5.3 Estimation of carbohydrate content in the extract of Periplaneta american (cockroach):
The anthrone reaction is the basis of a rapid and convenient method for the determination of carbohydrates, either free
or present in polysaccharides. Carbohydrates are first hydrolysed into simple sugars using sulphuric acid. In hot acidic medium glucose is dehydrated to hydroxymethyl furfural. This compound forms with anthrone a green coloured product with an absorption maximum at 630 nm.
92
Annual Report 2013-2014
Anthrone method for estimation of carbohydrate content was standardized and validated. A total of 41 experiments were performed for estimation of carbohydrate
content and repeated five times to validate the results for each extract (n=6). The glucose was used as standard at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50µg/ml concentrations.
figure 1: The figure shows the standard curve generated by using different concentrations of glucose as standard showing linear relationship between concentration and absorbance. concentration of extract sample was determined from the standard curve.
5.4 sDs PAgE analysis of allergen extract: The allergen extracts of Periplaneta americana were subjected to Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate Poly Acrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) to study their protein profile and determine molecular weights. (Figure 3). SDS-PAGE was run with different percentages of resolving acrylamide gel viz. 7.5, 10, 12, 15 % and best
resolution was obtained with 10% resolving gel. SDS-PAGE was performed with different protein contents /well (10 µg, 20µg, 30 µg, 40 µg, & 60 µg,) to determine optimal concentration of protein for obtaining best resolution. A protein content of 40ug/well was found to give optimal band resolution in the gel.

5.5 ELisA for determination of specific igE in sera samples: Indirect ELISA tests (n=28) were per-formed to determine specific IgE for Cockroach allergens in sera of 54 normal healthy volunteers and 10 Cockroach Skin Prick Test (SPT) positive patients. The major findings of ELISA tests are summarised below:
l Experiments performed: n= 28
l Cockroach Extracts used: E1 and E5
l Optimal Ag coating conc. 1µg/100 µl/well
(in ten experiments)
l Screening of Normal healthy volunteers NHV 25, 27, 51 found reactive
(NHV): 1 to 54
l Screening of Cockroach SPT positive: CP 5,6, &7 found non- reactive
cP 1 to 10
5.6. Western Blotting:
Western Blotting (also called Immunoblotting) is a technique used for analysis of individual proteins in a protein mixture. Standardization of western blotting was undertaken to identify major allergen/s and minor allergens in the cockroach
extract/s. Major allergens are defined on the basis of frequency of recognition by serum IgE antibodies; that is, a frequency of greater than 50% justifies a designation as a major allergen. Due to limited patient sera, commercial sera with cockroach specific IgE were procured from Plasma International lab, USA for preliminary standardization.
94
Annual Report 2013-2014
The key findings of Western Blot are summarized below:• Number of Experiments n=6• ExtractTested: E1,E3,E5,E7,E8• SPT+veSampleTested: CP2,CP5,CP10(n=3)• CommercialseraTested: CS1,CS2,CS3(n=3)• Seradilutionstried: 1:3,1:5,1:10,1:20• Optimizedseradilution: Samples-1:3;CS1-1:10• CurrentStatus: Standardized

3. Aim and scope of the Laboratory:
Monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) are routinely used in biochemistry, molecular biology and medical research but the greatest achievement has been their use as therapeutic agents for the treatment of human diseases like cancer, leukaemia, asthma, arthritis, psoriasis, Crohn’s disease and transplant rejection etc. Research is going on to cure more diseases including rare diseases of the many parts of the globe by Mabs. These are generated by recombinant DNA (rDNA) technology, hybridomas technology, B lymphocyte immortalisation or other technologies (e.g. phage display technology, genetically engineered animals).
Over the two decades manufacturers using advance state of art facility to improve the engineering technologies, for ensuring safety, purity, potency and efficacy of the therapeutic antibodies. These developments, produced highly purified, safe and efficacious therapeutic monoclonal antibodies for the patient with lesser side effects.
The use of monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) for cancer therapy has achieved considerable
success in recent years and is now one of the most successful and important strategies for treating patients with haematological malignancies and solid tumours. Therefore, monoclonal antibodies have finally come of the age as most successful therapeutic molecules and generating a market value of US $44.6 billion in 2011 and global Mab market is expected to rise at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.3 to nearly US $58 billion in 2016 (bcc Research).
India is a major importer of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies such as Trastuzumab, Panitumumab, Ranibizumab, Eculizumab, Certolizumab, Golimumab, Canakinumab, Catumaxomab, Ustekinumab, Tocilizumab, Ofatumumab, Denosumab, Belimumab, Ipililumab, Brentuximab and Pertuzumab, etc. A few Indian biopharmaceutical industries have developed biosimilar and started marketing of these antibodies for patient care, i.e. M/s Biocon Ltd, Banglore, M/s Dr. Reddy Lab, Hyderabad, M/s Intas Biopharmaceuticals ltd, Ahmedabad. Some companies Mab’s are in pipeline, i.e., Reliance life science, Mumbai, Avesthagen, Bangalore, Bharat Serum and Vaccines Ltd, Mumbai, Serum Institute of India, Pune, Zydus Biologics Centre, Ahmedabad, Lupin Biotech Research, Pune, Natco pharma – Hyderabad and Mabpharm – Goa.
In view of the above fact National Institute of Biologicals has set up the Therapeutic Monoclonal Antibody Laboratory for Quality Control Testing of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies.
4. scientific services undertaken:
Total nineteen types of Therapeutic Monoclonal Antibodies are approved by the Drugs Controller General (I) for marketing

National Institute of Biologicals
in India. Table -1. Out of these, laboratory has received Rituximab and Trastuzumab as a service sample from the manufacturers through O/o DCG(I) for standardization of quality control testing. Laboratory has received three service samples of Rituximab of different firms and one of Trastuzumab from M/s Roche. The laboratory has started the testing for the same with coordination with the other laboratory. As no monographs are available in any of the pharmacopoeia for doing the quality control testing, therefore testing is carried out of the Reditux (Rituximab) and Herceptin (Trastuzumab) as per specifications validated and approved by the DCG(I) during the marketing authorization in their respective CTD III module of therapeutic antibody.

5. Estimation of Potency of Anti-D immunoglobulin using fAcs (Assay under standardization): Dr. sanjay Mendirattta
Assessment of the level of anti-D is important for monitoring alloimmunized Rh D-negative antenatal patients and immunized volunteers, and for ensuring the potency of therapeutic products. Anti-D-specific immunoglobulin preparations are routinely used for the prophylaxis of Rh(D) immunization of Rh-negative women after delivery. The clinical use of anti-D immunoglobulin for prevention
of haemolytic disease of the newborn necessitates estimation of its potency. Flow cytometry (FACS) has found many applications in immunohaematology with the simplest technique being equivalent to a direct antiglobulin test, e.g. to detect an antibody bound to red blood cells in vivo Van der Meulen et al. (1980) described the use of flow cytometry for measuring the relative amounts of anti- D present on red cells. The technique is based on binding of immunoglobulin to D-positive cells, with subsequent use of a secondary fluorescence-labelled anti-human immunoglobulin G (IgG) fragment and read-out by FACS. Each sample of anti-D immunoglobulin is assayed against the International Reference Preparation, calibrated in international units (IU), which allows a specification to be given in IU/ml. Thus flow-cytometric method which indicates that FACS is suitable for estimation of potency.
figure 1a & 1b: fAcs based display of density plot for standardizing assay for potency estimation of Anti-D immunoglobulin (Assay under standardization):
The cell population was gated according to their forward- and side-scatter characteristics, but the small extent of debris was excluded. The median fluorescence intensity (MFI) was measured for all events and analyzed in each sample, whereas a marker was set in the negative control. We observed a decreasing shift in signal of positive response as we moved from higher concentration to lower concentration.

3. Aim and scope:
Nucleic acid based testing (NAT) laboratory has been established for performance evaluation of molecular diagnostic test kits intended to be used for viral load monitoring for disease prognosis and blood donor screening for transfusion-transmitted viruses such as Hepatitis-B virus (HBV), Hepatitis-C virus (HCV) and Human Immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Molecular diagnostics improve patient care by providing clinically actionable information. The diagnostics are valued
based on how well the information provided improves clinical decisions. A molecular test narrows window period with very high sensitivity and accuracy. The serological tests generally show false positive results due to presence of antibodies generated during previous infections, but molecular test detects nucleic acid present inside the viruses. Therefore, there is no chance of false positive results when the viruses have been cleared. Government of Delhi has passed a bill to make molecular testing mandatory in all its blood banks.
4. scientific services undertaken:
The lab has developed plasma panels for performance evaluation of quantitative molecular diagnostic test kits intended to be used for viral load monitoring for HBV, HCV and HIV-1. Each NAT positive plasma panel represents a dynamic range of viral load i.e. viral load in each panel varies from few copies to billion copies. During the year 2013-14, the laboratory has evaluated 49 batches of molecular diagnostic test kits.

iNDEPENDENT AUDiTOR’s REPORT
Report on the financial statements
We have audited the attached financial statements of National Institute of Biologicals (“NIB”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2014 and the Income & Expenditure Account along with the Receipts & Payment Account for the year ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management’s Responsibility for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position and financial performance of NIB in accordance with accounting princi-ples generally accepted in India. This responsibility includes the design, implementation and mainte-nance of internal control relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We con-ducted our audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing issued by the ICAI. Those standards re-quire that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of materials misstatements.
An Audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatements of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error in making those risk assessments, the auditor considers the internal control relevant to the NIB’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effective-ness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of account-ing principles used and reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements
