The European Medicines Agency's key scientific panel, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), meets once a month and among other things adopts positive or negative opinions on marketing authorization applications (MAAs) filed through the centralized procedure for new molecular entities (NMEs), biosimilars and generic medicines. CHMP opinions are sent to the European Commission, which makes a final, legally binding decision, usually within 67 days.
