art_81__para_3__text_1

The EU database shall support the recording and submission to the Medicinal Product Dictionary, contained in the Eudravigilance database, of all the data on medicinal products without a marketing authorisation in the Union and substances not authorised as part of a medicinal product in the Union, that are necessary for the maintenance of that dictionary. To this effect and also with the purpose of enabling the sponsor to cross-refer to prior applications, an EU medicinal product number shall be issued for every medicinal product without a marketing authorisation and an EU active substances code shall be issued for each new active substance not previously authorised as part of a medicinal product in the Union. This shall be done before or during the application for authorisation of the first clinical trial with that product or active substance submitted in accordance with this Regulation. Those numbers shall be mentioned in all subsequent applications for clinical trials and for substantial modifications.
