Almac Clinical Services is pleased to announce the completion of a successful inspection of its Audubon, Pennsylvania operations by the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).

The voluntary inspection, which was carried out on 15–16 September 2008, noted that the site was compliant with EU good manufacturing practices, with no critical or major failures noted.

Commenting on the inspection, Paul O’Connor (vice president, Quality) said: “We are delighted with the results of this inspection. Almac has always strived to ensure that our procedures and processes meet the high standards set by the various international regulatory bodies. We find this is of great reassurance to our clients, who often require clinical services on a multi-site basis.”

Paul added: “I wish to thank all of the staff involved for their efforts and dedication in providing a robust and transparent quality framework across all of the Almac Clinical Services sites.”

The MHRA is also inspecting Almac Clinical Services, Durham (NC) and Craigavon (UK) facilities.
