  10. Changes to USP Heparin Sodium Monograph

  11. Prior Efforts to Revise • WHO – 1998 working group develops chromogenic anti-factor IIa potency test • 2004 Stimuli article in Pharmacopeial Forum (PF) 30(5) on the qualification of chromogenic test – proposes replacement of sheep plasma assay • 2006 Advisory Panel is formed • 2007 revision proposal in PF 33(2) to replace the sheep plasma clotting potency test with chromogenic anti-factor IIa potency test

  12. Comparison of Monograph Requirements

  13. Issues and Summary • Current USP View:An up to date public monograph in USP with careful attention to GMPs, including careful in-process testing, could have prevented access to commercially contaminated heparin drug substances in the US market • Many other USP monographs are either missing or out of date • The FDA-USP partnership created in law more than 100 years ago needs to be strengthened • No mechanism for ensuring that USP receives information it needs to create and update monographs • This will need involvement from all stakeholders
