      58

      Executive summary

      59

      This guideline is the 2nd revision of the CHMP Guideline formerly called ?Guideline on the requirements

      60

      for clinical documentation for orally inhaled products (OIP) including the requirements for

      61

      demonstration of therapeutic equivalence between two inhaled products for use in the treatment of

      62

      asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adults and for use in the treatment of

      63

      asthma in children and adolescents?.

    • It addresses the requirements for demonstration of therapeutic

      64

      equivalence (TE) between orally inhaled products containing the same active moiety(ies).

    • It is generally not recommended to aim at demonstrating TE using pharmacodynamic

      70

      or clinical endpoints as these are deemed insensitive.

    • This

      83

      guideline is directed particularly at the requirements for demonstrating TE between OIPs containing the

      84

      same active moiety(ies) and used in the management and treatment of patients with asthma and/or

      85

      COPD.

    • 86

      The guideline was first published as points to consider in 2004 and revised for the first time and

      87

      became guideline in 2009.

    • Since then, a number of Q&A documents have been published by Quality

      88

      Working Party (QWP) and former Pharmacokinetic Working Party (PKWP).

    • Scope

      93

      This document provides guidance on the requirements for demonstrating TE between OIPs, including

      94

      both, single active substance products and combination products.
