EMA Consults on Virtual Control Groups
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) is consulting on a new methodology involving virtual control groups in preclinical research. The approach aims to reduce the number of animals used in medicines development. The EMA's human medicines committee (CHMP) issued a draft qualification opinion on the methodology, seeking input from stakeholders. This initiative aligns with the EU's commitment to animal welfare and promotes innovative approaches in pharmaceutical research.
