ICH E6(R3) - Good Clinical Practice 3.10: Run a proportionate, risk-based quality management system with quality by design, identifying, evaluating, controlling (including pre-specified acceptable ranges such as quality tolerance limits), communicating, reviewing and reporting risks to critical to quality factors

What does 3.10 require?

The sponsor should manage quality throughout the trial with efficient protocols, tools and procedures, taking a proportionate, risk-based approach that designs quality in and identifies critical to quality factors, and describe the approach in the clinical trial report. It should identify risks with a meaningful impact on those factors before and during the trial across processes and systems (design, selection, consent, randomisation, blinding, product administration, data handling, providers); evaluate them by likelihood, detectability and impact on participant protection and result reliability; control them in proportion (for example through protocol design, monitoring plans, agreements and training) and, where relevant, set pre-specified acceptable ranges such as trial-level quality tolerance limits, evaluating exceedances for systemic issues; document and communicate risks and mitigations to those affected; review controls periodically for continued effectiveness; and summarise important quality issues, including exceeded ranges, and remedial actions in the clinical trial report.
