CHMP Does Not Recommend Cimzia for Crohn's Disease; UCB Plans Appeal UCB said today that the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) had failed to recommend the approval of Cimzia to treat Crohn's disease. UCB plans to use the appeal process to request a CHMP re-examination of the submission. The company said the panel raised a number of issues that it hoped to be able to address to facilitate a new decision by the middle of next year. (Reuters
