Pharmacy Narrative:

Ms. Harwood performed an on-site review of the control pharmacy located at Susquehanna Cancer Center with Joseph LeCrone, Pharm.D. The INDs
are being stored appropriately in the control pharmacy, and the control pharmacy has adequate security measures in place. There are ten members of
the control pharmacy staff who have access to the INDs. Ms. Pitts and Ms. Harwood reviewed the drug accountability record forms (DARFs) along
with the transaction forms (orders, receipts, returns, and/or transfers) for the control pharmacy for three of the INDs associated with the review of the
patient case records. There are no satellite pharmacies associated with this control pharmacy.

COMMENTS: Please provide a corrective and preventative action plan to ensure DARFs are completed accurately.

During the review of the control DARFs and transaction forms, all of the transactions recorded on the control DARFs coincided with the transaction
forms and the medical records.
However, the following noncompliance was noted:
C80702: The shelf inventory balance carried forward was not recorded on pages 2 or 3 of the DARF.
C80702: A single DARF for celecoxib/placebo capsules was maintained for two patients. The site discovered this non-compliance during
preparation for the audit and a CAPA dated 01/12/2017 was developed and has been appended to this report.
E1912: The shelf inventory balance carried forward was not recorded on pages 3 and 4 of the DARF.

Audit Procedures:

The ECOG-ACRIN Operation Center records were compared with the hospital records. The audit was conducted in accordance with CTMB Guidelines.

General Comments:

The auditors were very impressed with the quality of the documentation reviewed and the processes put in place at the site to ensure protocol
adherence.

Exit Interview Comments: Dr. Lawson, Ms. Pitts and Ms. Harwood conducted the exit interview with Dr. Robinson, and the staff noted on the first page of this audit report; Ms.
Narret attended by telephone. On behalf of the audit team, Ms. Pitts thanked Dr. Robinson and the staff for their hospitality, audit preparation,
assistance during the audit, and participation in ECOG-ACRIN.
Ms. Pitts indicated that the audit team will be recommending an Acceptable outcome for the regulatory review to the ECOG-ACRIN Audit Committee as
no deficiencies were noted in the review of the selected protocols and consent forms.
In the review of the pharmacy component, Ms. Pitts provided a summary of the noncompliance that was identified during the review of the DARFs and
pharmacy. Ms. Pitts indicated that the audit team will be recommending an Acceptable Needs Follow-up outcome for the pharmacy component to the
ECOG-ACRIN Audit Committee.
Dr. Lawson along with the other auditors reviewed the chart component and indicated that only lesser deficiencies were identified. An unannounced
case (S1207 Subject # 261646) was included in this audit and included a review of the informed consent and eligibility audit categories. The auditors
indicated that they found the source documentation to be very detailed. The charts were extremely well prepared and the CRAs were present to assist
the auditors with navigating the charts. In general, the site did an excellent job in obtaining the protocol-related parameters and ensuring that the
patients were treated according to the protocols. Ms. Pitts indicated that the audit team would be recommending an Acceptable outcome to the ECOGACRIN Audit Committee.
In preparation for the audit, the site identified the pharmacy non-compliance regarding the use of a DARF for the C80702 study; transactions for two
patients were reported on a single DARF when a separate DARF should have been used for each patient. Ms. Pitts acknowledged that the site provided
a copy of a corrective and preventative action (CAPA) plan in regard to this issue; that document is appended to this report. As an additional pharmacy
non-compliance was noted, when the audit report is finalized, ECOG-ACRIN will provide a copy of the report and request an amended or additional
CAPA plan. The CAPA plan must be submitted to ECOG-ACRIN within two weeks of receiving the final version of the audit report. The CAPA will need
to be reviewed and approved by the ECOG-ACRIN Audit Committee as well as the Clinical Trials Monitoring Branch.
