In recent years, regulatory agencies have placed an increased emphasis on pharmaceutical process understanding through adoption of quality-by-design (QbD) principles by launching a series of initiatives to encourage the pharmaceutical industry to adopt QbD in the manufacturing process. A key component of this transformation is the evolution of validation concepts to a life cycle risk-based approach driven by analytical quality by design (AQbD) principles. Different pharmacopoeias have been developing compendial approaches to support the implementation of analytical procedure life cycle (APLC) risk-based approach. Additionally, the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) released in March 2022 two draft guidelines for public consultation which outline QbD principles: ICH Q14 (procedure development) (1), and the ICH Q2(R2) (procedure validation) (2). In a series of two articles, the authors will provide an overview of the validation concept principles evolution with a focus on compendial perspectives (Part I) and draw a parallel between ICH Q14 and Q2(R2) and United States Pharmacopeia (USP) General Chapter <1220> and the ISO/IEC 17025:2017 (Part II).
