Selv om ansøgerens påstand om, at PK- bioækvivalensundersøgelsen viste ækvivalens uden spacer, blev underbygget, støttede CHMP ikke antagelsen om, at dataene med brug af spacer ville vise de samme tegn på ækvivalens, og mente derfor, at en PK- undersøgelse med spacer er påkrævet.
Although the claim of the Applicant that the PK bioequivalence study demonstrated equivalence without spacer was endorsed, the CHMP did not support the assumption that the data with the use of a spacer would provide the same evidence of equivalence and therefore considered that a PK study with a spacer is mandatory.
