Seven years after the release of the European Union regulation on Orphan Medicinal Products there has been over 500 orphan designations leading to some 45 orphan drugs been approved for marketing in the EU.
Of course, it’s not as simple as that. And while it’s true that orphan drugs present a compelling opportunity for industry (and patients), it’s a much more complex picture, fraught with challenges and hurdles to overcome.
We’ve spoken to pharma/biotech companies like Celgene, GSK, Apogenix, Ablynx and Shire as well as regulatory agencies, and patient organizations. These people working on developing and delivering orphan drugs told us the global trends in this industry and how best to access this 36 million patient market.
They told us that they wanted a meeting that brought together drug developers, regulators and patient organisations to tackle the barriers that are holding back the orphan drug field. From gaining market authorisation and reimbursement to improving patient access to treatments.
The 3rd Annual Orphan Drug Summit will bring together all of these groups to explore the challenges that are holding your business back and provide you with the key to success in the orphan drug field.
Unlike other orphan drug meetings the World Orphan Drug summit is wholly focused on tackling those barriers that are holding back the orphan drug sector and boasts more patient organizations that any other meeting. We are bringing together the thought leaders in the field for in-depth exploration surrounding pricing, patient access, market exclusivity and clinical development. Therefore every presentation is 100% relevant to you and the work you are doing.
This meeting has been designed to provide cutting edge, exclusive insights for industry, patient advocacy groups, insurance companies, the venture capital community and academic leaders into how to grow business and drive orphan drug development forward. That means everyone involved in:
