Opinions and letters of support on the qualification of novel methodologies for medicine development

Table of contents

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) publishes opinions on the qualification of innovative development methods and letters of support for novel methodologies that have been shown to be promising in the context of research and development into pharmaceuticals. 

The opinions are given by EMA's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) on the basis of recommendations by the Scientific Advice Working Party.

For more information and guidance on the qualification of novel methodologies, see Qualification of novel methodologies for medicine development .
