Timeline
Key events during the development of the guidance:
| Date | Update |
|---|---|
| 18 August 2022 | Discontinued. The company have informed us that they are no longer seeking regulatory approval in this indication. Therefore the appraisal is suspended. |
| 21 June 2017 | This appraisal has now been suspended and the appraisal committee discussion that was due to take place has been cancelled. This is due to an update on the regulatory status as the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) adopted a negative opinion, “recommending the refusal of the marketing authorisation for the medicinal product anamorelin intended for the treatment of anorexia, cachexia or unintended weight loss in patients with non-small cell lung cancer”. |
