The Committee for Human Medicinal Products (CHMP), Committee for Veterinary Medicinal Products (CVMP) and Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products (COMP) are the major committees run by this agency to ensure the above objectives. Additional support comes from more than 90 Working Parties (e.g., on efficacy, safety, quality, biotechnology, pharmacovigilance, blood and plasma, etc.) as well as ad-hoc Expert Groups (on subjects like pediatric use, bioterrorism, oncology, anti-HIV drugs, etc.) and also approximately 2500 European experts from competent national authorities.
