  • PRAC Recommendations on Signals Adopted at the 13-16 January 2020 PRAC En
    10 February 20201 EMA/PRAC/8637/2020 Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) PRAC recommendations on signals Adopted at the 13-16 January 2020 PRAC meeting This document provides an overview of the recommendations adopted by the Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) on the signals discussed during the meeting of 13-16 January 2020 (including the signal European Pharmacovigilance Issues Tracking Tool [EPITT]2 reference numbers). PRAC recommendations to provide supplementary information are directly actionable by the concerned marketing authorisation holders (MAHs). PRAC recommendations for regulatory action (e.g. amendment of the product information) are submitted to the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) for endorsement when the signal concerns Centrally Authorised Products (CAPs), and to the Co-ordination Group for Mutual Recognition and Decentralised Procedures – Human (CMDh) for information in the case of Nationally Authorised Products (NAPs). Thereafter, MAHs are expected to take action according to the PRAC recommendations. When appropriate, the PRAC may also recommend the conduct of additional analyses by the Agency or Member States. MAHs are reminded that in line with Article 16(3) of Regulation No (EU) 726/2004 and Article 23(3) of Directive 2001/83/EC, they shall ensure that their product information is kept up to date with the current scientific knowledge including the conclusions of the assessment and recommendations published on the European Medicines Agency (EMA) website (currently acting as the EU medicines webportal). For CAPs, at the time of publication, PRAC recommendations for update of product information have been agreed by the CHMP at their plenary meeting (27-30 January 2020) and corresponding variations will be assessed by the CHMP.
