Le point sur le PCEM - numéro 8
Submission Status
The CDR Directorate has received two submissions:
- Combigan® (brimonidine tartrate 0.2%/timolol 0.5% ophthalmic solution, Allergan Canada Inc)
- Reyataz™ (atazanavir, Bristol-Myers Squibb Canada).
Submission Status Reports are available on the CCOHTA web site. These will be updated weekly. A Submission Status Report tracks the progress of a submission from receipt by the CDR Directorate through to the release of the final recommendation and reasons for recommendation by the Canadian Expert Drug Advisory Committee (CEDAC).
The Submission Status Report provides manufacturers, government representatives and public stakeholders with information about the progress of drug submissions through the CDR process. Data will be used to assist in the evaluation of the CDR process after one full year of operation.
