The letter is not about the drug.
It's about the drug delivery device (i.e. the "pen"), and the failure of Pfizer/Meridian (the contract manufacturer of the device) to follow correct design and manufacturing practices.
They don't have a proper CAPA system in place, they don't have proper design control or procedures, the DHFs are missing up to date inputs, risk analysis isn't up to date, etc.
It's pretty damning, but it's not about the pharma aspect of this. Basically the manufacturer lacks a functional quality system, which is table stakes for this stuff.
