Method Validation – General ConceptsMethod Validation – General ConceptsDifferent regulations relating to GLP, GMP,
GCP (OECD, EU)Normative or Regulatory documents (ISO
17025, ICH, EMEA, FDA, dir. 2002/657/EG) both suggest that analytical procedures both suggest that analytical procedures have to comply to certain acceptance criteria.have to comply to certain acceptance criteria.
This request imposes that these procedures are to be validated.- Some documents define the validation criteria- No proposals on experimental approaches !!- Limited to general concepts !!

Introduction - DefinitionIntroduction - DefinitionMethod Validation: is the confirmation by examination
and the provision of objective evidence that the particular requirements for a specific intended use are fulfilled. EN ISO/IEC 17025 § 5.4.5.1
Methods need to be validated or revalidated:
before introduction into routine application whenever conditions change for which the method has
been validated (e.g. Instrument with different characteristics)
whenever the method is modified and modifications are outside original scope of the method.

Objectives of an analytical procedureObjectives of an analytical procedureAble to quantify as accurately as possible
each unknown quantity to be determined.After analysis: the difference between
returned result xreturned result x and the unknown “true “true value µvalue µTT”” be small or < acceptance limit acceptance limit λλ:
-- < x - µ < x - µTT < < λ λ x - x - µµT T < < λ (eq.1)λ (eq.1) λλ : depends on objective of analytical
procedure e.g. 1-2 % on bulk, 5 % on pharmaceuticals, 15 % for biological samples previously defined
6
Objectives of an analytical procedureObjectives of an analytical procedureAnalytical procedures characterized by (cfr. def.): “true bias” MM = systematic error (unknown) “true precision” σ²σ²MM = random error measured by a
standard deviation or variance (unknown)Estimates of biasbias and precisionprecision obtained by
experiments during the validationReliability of these estimates depends on adequacy
of experiments on known samples (Valid. Stds), experimental design, number of experiments
These estimates an intermediary but obligatory step to evaluate if procedure is likely or not to quantify with sufficient accuracy the unknown quantities; not objectives per se

Objectives of an analytical procedureObjectives of an analytical procedure FigureFigure: 4 different (hypothetical) methods giving the
distribution of 95% of the measures Each method has a true bias M , a true precision σ²M , a
common acceptance limit λ (= 15% bioanalytical procedure):
Procedure 3Procedure 3: negligible bias (0%); unsatisfactory precision (20% CV); too many measures beyond +/- 15% of the true value; does not fulfill objective
Procedure 4Procedure 4: bias (7%); precision (12%); important proportion outside acceptance limits; does not fulfill objective; but both < 15%: required by Washington Conf.
Procedures 1 and 2Procedures 1 and 2: fulfill (valid): at least 95% of results inside acceptance limits
9
Objectives of an analytical procedureObjectives of an analytical procedure Procedure 1Procedure 1: presents a bias (+ 7%), but is very precise
(3% CV) Procedure 2Procedure 2: presents a negligible bias (+ 1%), but is
less precise (8% CV)
FIRST CONCLUSION: Differences between these two procedures don’t matter since results are never too far from true values of the sample to quantify.
Quality of results is far more important than the intrinsic characteristic properties of procedure in terms of bias or precision.
10
Objectives of an analytical procedureObjectives of an analytical procedure To develop a procedure without bias and error
considerable cost; not acceptable strategy Analyst has to take minimal risks, compatible with the
analytical objectives (within reasonable time!!) Set up acceptable maximum proportion of measurements
that might be outside acceptance limits (acceptance limits (±±):): e.g. 5%5% or 20 %20 % of measurements outside (±) as
maximum riskrisk. inside triangles (next fig.) space of acceptable
procedures characterized by “true bias” “true bias” MM and a “true “true precision” precision” ²²MM
Acceptable procedures: 95, 80, 66% of measurements within ± 15% limits (recommendations Washington Conference) proportion depends on objectives!!!proportion depends on objectives!!!

Objectives of an analytical procedureObjectives of an analytical procedureFURTHER CONCLUSION: Procedure qualified as acceptable if:
it “guarantees” that the difference between every sample measurement (x)(x) and its “true value” (µ(µTT)) is inside the predefined acceptance limits (±
In equation: P(P(x - x - µµT T < < ) ) eq. eq. 2)2) = proportion of measurements inside acceptance limits = acceptance limit, fixed a priori according objectives of the method

15
Objective of the validationObjective of the validationWhat ?
to give to the laboratories as well to the regulatory bodies “guarantees” that every single measurement performed in routine is close enough to the unknown “true value” of the sample: x - x - µµT T < acceptable limit < acceptable limit
Objective of validation: not simply to obtain estimates of bias and precision; it is to evaluate these guarantees and risks
These estimates of bias and precision are required to evaluate risks
16
Objective of the validationObjective of the validationWith respect to this objective, 2 basic notions2 basic notions
should be considered:
““close enough”close enough” (eq. 1) meaning that routine measure will be less than the acceptance limit λ from its unknown “true value”
““guaranteed”,guaranteed”, (eq. 2) meaning that it is very likely that analysis result will be close enough to the true unknown value.
17
Objective of the validationObjective of the validation
decision tools are needed giving “guarantees” that future measurements are reasonably inside acceptance limits
18
Decision rulesDecision rulesCurrent position with respect to the decision rules
used in the phase of validation most of them based on use of the null hypothesis:
H0 : bias = 0 H0 : relative bias = 0 % H0 : recovery = 100 %
- Bias = x - µBias = x - µTT
- Relative bias = 100 (x - µRelative bias = 100 (x - µTT)/µ)/µTT
- Recovery = 100 x/µRecovery = 100 x/µTT A procedure wrongly declared adequate when the
95% C.I. of the average biasaverage bias includes 0 Test inadequate in validation context of analytical Test inadequate in validation context of analytical

Decision rulesDecision rulesAccording to the decision rule based on use of
acceptance limits triangle in fig. with acceptible valid procedures
Triangle in fig.Triangle in fig. corresponds to procedures with measurement proportion inside acceptance limits (±λ) ≥≥ a prioria priori chosen proportionchosen proportion (e.g. 80%) as given by equation: P(P(x - x - µµT T < < ) ) (eq. 2) (eq. 2)
more sensible decision rule: procedures with good precisiongood precision acceptedbad precisionbad precision rejected
Biased procedure small variance: acceptable !!Procedure with higher variance needs small bias
23
Decision rules: Accuracy profileDecision rules: Accuracy profile easy and visual decision rule:easy and visual decision rule: use of the accuracy profileaccuracy profile
within the acceptance limits (± ) Accuracy profileAccuracy profile constructed from the β-expectation
intervals on the expected measurements:- allows to decide on capability of analytical procedure to give results inside ± - describes dosage intervaldosage interval (range) in which the procedure is able to quantify with known accuracy and a fixed riskfixed risk at the end of the validation
e.g. risk of 5%risk of 5% “guarantee” that 95/100 future measurements will be included in acceptance limitsincluded in acceptance limits, fixed according requirements (1-2 % on bulk, 5 % on pharmaceut., 15 % in bioanalysis)
24
Decision rulesDecision rules Accuracy profileAccuracy profile by concentration level (C1, C2,
...) obtained by computing β-expectation tolerance interval allows evaluating the proportion of expected measurements inside acceptance limitsacceptance limits
This intervalThis interval is obtained from available validated estimates of the bias and precision of the procedure (by concentration level)
This intervalThis interval of measurements expected within level (= proportion of measurements inside ) has -expectation confidence limits
25
Decision rulesDecision rules If for each concentration level jconcentration level j β-expectation
tolerance interval are included within acceptance limits method accepted!
Tolerance interval calculation:Tolerance interval calculation:- what matters is: the guarantee of the results, expected in the future by the same analytical procedure in routine
- estimation of µj, ²B,j, ²W,j at every conc. j are used to estimate the expected proportion of observations within the predifined acceptance limits [-i.e.:
