Discussion

  • Prior to the meeting held on October 8, 2014, AHI had posed a question to CVM representatives regarding the determination by the CVM Conditional Approval Working Group that the CMC Technical Section will not be open for consideration as part of the conditional approval process. At the GCC meeting, CVM responded by affirming this position. Any drug product released in the market, whether approved or conditionally approved, must be manufactured with adequate controls and in compliance with cGMPs to help assure that it is safe for its intended use.
