The Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) is responsible for the scientific evaluation of the application dossier on the quality, efficacy and safety (including environmental safety) of the medicinal product as part of the centralized marketing authorization procedure for new medicinal products. The CHMP's scientific assessment report forms the basis for the European Commission's decision to grant or refuse a central marketing authorization for a medicinal product for human use.

The CHMP is composed of scientists from all member states of the European Economic Area (EEA). More information on the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use can be found on the website of the European Medicines Agency (EMA). An overview of all centrally authorised medicinal products can be found in the Union Register of medicinal products for human use of the European Commission.
