Summary
19、of Guide4.1 This guide describes a data format that can be adoptedby Suppliers and Customers to transfer raw material data in astandardized and scalable way.4.2 This guide also describes critical data content thatshould be included and offers recommendations for optionalbut informative data paramete
20、rs that Suppliers and Customersmay want to adopt for mutual benefit.5. Significance and Use5.1 Application of the approach described within this guideis intended to achieve a biopharma industry-wide standardformat that will be available for electronic data transferbetween Supplier and Customer for m
21、onitoring and studyingvariability.5.2 This guide supports and facilitates fast data transfer,thereby avoiding data recapture, human interaction, and tran-scription errors; and thus enables a more streamlined businessprocess.5.3 If the eData structure does not conform to the XSDdefined by this guide
22、then it is not guaranteed to be inter-operable. Feedback or change requests should be directed toASTM Headquarters, to the attention of the Committee E55Staff Manager.5.4 Digital Signature can be adopted and used as part of theeData transfer. XML and XSD are provided in two formats:with and without
23、digital signature configuration. User canfollow either format for implmenation to ensure conformingwith the ASTM eData XSD structure.6. Key Concepts6.1 This guide applies the following key concepts:6.1.1 Risk management approach,6.1.2 Use of Supplier documentation, and6.1.3 Data transfer methods.6.2
24、 Risk Management Approach:6.2.1 The scope and extent of quality risk management fordata transfer activities and documentation are based on the riskto product quality and patient safety. Variation in raw materialsis a concern and in order to understand the variability, the firststep is to have an eff
25、icient way of obtaining the data. Having astandardized eData format for both the Suppliers and Custom-ers is the first step in achieving this goal.6.2.2 Having a standard way to generate and consume datawill avoid multiple formats that one Supplier has to generate tosuit various Customer requirement
26、s. In addition, using eDatastandard format as a template, the Suppliers data sourcesystem built will allow simpler compilation of data on anongoing basis. This will reduce cost and resources for imple-menting eData transfer between Supplier and Customers.6.2.3 Following the format described in this
27、guide, changemanagement can be provided in a dependable mechanism fortracking and prompt implementation of technically soundimprovements.6.3 Use of Supplier Documentation:6.3.1 Supplier documentation should be used provided thatthe regulated company has assessed the Supplier, and hasevidence that th
28、e Supplier has: an acceptable supplier qualitysystem, technical capability, and demonstrated application ofgood engineering practice (GEP) such that information ob-tained from the supplier will be accurate. Details on Supplierdocumentation can be found in Guides E2500 and E3051.6.4 Data Transfer Met
29、hods:6.4.1 It is critical that the data transferred from Supplier toCustomer are intact during the transfer. Since computer sys-tems and networks are vulnerable to data loss and unauthorizedmanipulation, it is important that the Customer has somemeans of verifying the integrity of the data. Supplier
30、s andCustomers should agree on methods to ensure that the trans-ferred data is not modified accidentally or intentionally. Thisguide describes an optional digital signature (including check-sum) capability to ensure the integrity of the transferred data.Data encryption is not addressed in the scope
31、of this guide.Additional means such as Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP)or Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) may be employed toprovide additional security for the transfer of eData documentsvia internet.6.5 Detect Data Transfer ErrorIf digital signature is notimplemented, in order to ensure data
32、 integrity and to detecterror that may have been introduced during transmission andstorage, it is recommended that Checksum should be imple-mented to the data files transferred between Suppliers and theend users.6.6 Utilizing XSD Schema to Generate XMLThird-partysolutions on the market can be used t
33、o generate XML based onthe XSD schema provided in this guide.E3077 17126.7 Suppliers may reasonably request that Customers keepinformation confidential to avoid disclosure of sensitive infor-mation to other parties. If necessary, critical information can beblinded using linear filters whereby the ac
34、tual name of aparameter can be blinded and the actual measurement valuesare subjected to a linear transform so that Supplier proprietaryinformation is concealed while still allowing Customers tocorrelate variability to process performance. Any data that iscoded needs to be consistently coded over ti
35、me to ensure thatthe tracking objectives are met. If coding changes, suchchanges need to be captured in a traceable form.7. Data Transfer Content7.1 Table 1 describes the data transfer content and theirbasic layout. The table is divided into Required fields and somesuggested Optional fields. To the
36、right of each field is a briefexplanation of the meaning of the content. Details of the exactcontent will be determined by the Supplier and end user. Thistable is a reference guide; a formal specification of the dataformat is provided as an XML Schema Definition (XSD) file.8. Keywords8.1 eData trans
