🚨 Regulatory Changes for Reference Medicinal Products (RMPs) from 1 January 2025 🚨   From 1 January 2025, only RMPs authorised for at least 8 years in the UK (or GB prior to 2025) will be valid for generic, hybrid, and biosimilar Marketing Authorisation Applications (MAAs).   🔑 Key Changes: Applications that cannot cite a valid UK-authorised RMP will need to be submitted under a different legal basis, such as a well-established use application or a full mixed dossier application. The use of international comparator products will be extended across the UK, requiring UK-sourced comparator products. If not sourced from the UK, applicants must provide evidence that an international alternative is representative of the UK RMP.   🔹 Category 1 Products: The MHRA will authorise new and innovative medicines via UK-wide authorisations, which can be cited as RMPs for generics, hybrids, and biosimilars. Converted EU authorisations and GB MAs will also be valid as UK-wide marketing authorisations.   🔹 Category 2 Products: Only UK-authorised products will be valid RMPs. European Reference Products (ERPs) will no longer be valid for UK-wide MAAs from 1 January 2025. For NI MAs submitted through MRP/DCP, ERPs can still be cited.   Prepare your applications for these regulatory shifts to ensure smooth submissions from 2025 onwards! #PharmaRegulations #RMP #BiosimilarMAA #GenericMAA #HybridMAA #MHRA #UKPharma #UKWideAuthorisations #ComparatorProducts #FMD #NIPharma #PharmaceuticalIndustry
