With a view to their inclusion in the register of hybrid groups mentioned in the last paragraph of Article L. 5121-10, hybrid medicinal products are identified by a decision of the Director General of the Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé mentioning the corresponding reference medicinal product. This decision is notified to the holder of the marketing authorisation issued for this hybrid medicinal product.
Within one month, the Director General of the Agency will inform the holder of the marketing authorisation for the reference medicinal product of the granting of a marketing authorisation for a hybrid medicinal product. At the end of a period of thirty days following this notification, the Director General of the Agency will enter the hybrid medicinal product in the register of hybrid groups.
The only classes of medicinal product that may be entered in the register of hybrid groups are those included in the list established by the order provided for in the last paragraph of Article L. 5121-10. Classes of medicinal products removed from this list are removed from the corresponding groups in the register of hybrid groups on the same date.
A hybrid medicinal product whose marketing authorisation is withdrawn is deleted from the register of hybrid groups. When the marketing authorisation of a hybrid medicinal product is suspended, the registration of this medicinal product in the register of hybrid groups is suspended for the duration of the suspension of the marketing authorisation.
