GxP is the umbrella for the good-practice quality regimes governing regulated life-science work: GLP (21 CFR Part 58) for nonclinical safety studies, GCP (ICH E6) for clinical trials, GMP (21 CFR 210/211 and EU Annex 1) for manufacturing, and GVP for pharmacovigilance. Each requires documented, validated, inspectable process. Software used in a GxP process is subject to computerised system validation, which is why regulated life-science vendors describe themselves as GxP-ready before they describe themselves as API-first.
