Updating of the HMPC-Guideline on the use of the CTD Format in the Registration of Traditional Herbal Medicinal Products
Compared to herbal medicinal products (HMPs) there is a simplified registration procedure for traditional herbal medicinal products (THMP).
EMA's HMPC (Committee on Herbal Medicinal Products) published the draft of revision 2 on the use of the CTD format in the preparation of a registration application for traditional herbal medicinal products on 10 March 2015.
This guideline contains instructions on how to prepare a CTD for a registration application of traditional herbal medicinal products.
Now, there is a new annex 2 with a mock-up which shows by means of a concrete example where and to what extent information should be given on traditional herbal medicinal products in the dossier.
Appendix 1 is a best practice guide for module 3 on quality.
For further information please see the complete draft revision 2 of the "Guideline on the use of the CTD format in the preparation of a registration application for traditional herbal medicinal products" comprising more than 151 pages together with all annexes (!).
