Dear Dan,

❝ Test and reference should show similar in vitro dissolution under physiologically relevant experimental pH conditions


Should? OK, it has to be done (Appendix I.i – Testing on product quality), but the similarity testing (I.ii) is only relevant if a biowaiver is intended.

❝ In the event that the results of comparative in vitro dissolution of the biobatches do not reflect bioequivalence as demonstrated in vivo the latter prevails.


Exactly.

❝ However, possible reasons for the discrepancy should be addressed and justified.


Addressed? Maybe – though I don’t see its necessity according to the GL. IMHO, reporting is suffi­cient.
Why justified? The dissolution media might not be biorelevant, or dissolution is simply not the driving force for absorption at all (BCS classes II and IV).

Most scientists today are devoid of ideas, full of fear, intent on
producing some paltry result so that they can add to the flood
of inane papers that now constitutes “scientific progress”
in many areas.    Paul Feyerabend
