¿Qué es PRIME designation?

Priority Medicines scheme de EMA para therapies que addressan unmet medical need. Ofrece early rapporteur appointment, enhanced EMA interaction y accelerated assessment (150 vs 210 days). Requiere preliminary clinical evidence de transformative potential.

¿Qué es un Pediatric Investigation Plan (PIP)?

Plan required por EMA para todos los nuevos medicamentos que describe pediatric development. Debe ser submitted early in development. Pediatric Committee opina. Puede obtener waiver o deferral con justification.

¿Cuál es la diferencia entre Scientific Advice y Protocol Assistance?

Scientific Advice es disponible para cualquier desarrollo, es fee-based, y proporciona guidance general. Protocol Assistance es específico para orphan medicines, es gratuito, y enfoca en trial design para la orphan condition.

Qualified Person responsible for Pharmacovigilance. Rol required en EU que debe ser designado por el marketing authorization holder. Responsable del pharmacovigilance system y compliance con todas las PV obligations en EU.

Vía Regulatoria para Péptidos Terapéuticos: EMA
