Fluad Quad

1. The Fluad Quad European Union (EU)-Risk Management Plan (RMP) (version 1.0, dated 9 January 2019, data lock point 31 October 2018), with Australian Specific Annex (version 1.0, dated 17 January 2019), included with submission PM-2019-00120-1-2, and any subsequent revisions, as agreed with the TGA will be implemented in Australia.
   An obligatory component of risk management plans is routine pharmacovigilance. Routine pharmacovigilance includes the submission of periodic safety update reports (PSURs). Unless agreed separately between the supplier who is the recipient of the approval and the TGA, the first report must be submitted to TGA no later than 15 calendar months after the date of the approval letter. The subsequent reports must be submitted no less frequently than annually from the date of the first submitted report until the period covered by such reports is not less than three years from the date of the approval letter. The annual submission may be made up of two PSURs each covering six months. If the sponsor wishes, the six monthly reports may be submitted separately as they become available.
   The reports are to at least meet the requirements for PSURs as described in the European Medicines Agency’s Guideline on good pharmacovigilance practices (GVP) Module VII periodic safety update report (Rev 1), Part VII.B Structures and processes. Note that submission of a PSUR does not constitute an application to vary the registration. Each report must have been prepared within ninety calendar days of the data lock point for that report.
2. Batch Release Testing and Compliance with the Certified Product Details It is a condition of registration that all independent batches of Fluad Quad imported into Australia are not released for sale until samples and the manufacturer’s release data have been assessed and the sponsor has received notification acknowledging release from the Laboratories Branch, TGA.
   For each independent batch of the product imported into Australia, the sponsor must supply the following:
   1. A completed Request for Release Form, available from vaccines@health.gov.au.
   2. Complete summary protocols for manufacture and QC, including all steps in production.
   3. At least 20 (twenty) doses of the first consignment of each batch of Fluad Quad with the Australian approved labels, PI and packaging
   4. At least 10 (ten) doses of any further consignment of each batch of Fluad Quad with the Australian approved labels, PI and packaging
   5. Certificate of Release from a regulatory agency acting for the country of origin such as an OMCL (if available).
   6. Any reagents, reference material and standards required to undertake testing, as requested by Laboratories Branch, TGA.

Distribution of each shipment of each batch of vaccine is conditional upon fulfilment of these conditions and receipt of a letter from the Laboratories Branch acknowledging release.
