Drug development is a multi-step process that involves a number of opportunities and requirements for interaction with regulatory authorities. Contact with regulators spans from the design and approval of clinical trials, use of scientific advice and other support programs during development, definition of potential orphan status and pediatric development, to specific aspects of advanced therapy products, different ways of gaining approval and postmarketing activities and commitments. Once a drug is approved, negotiations on reimbursement and pricing are necessary for effectively bringing it to market.
This workshop will address the various regulatory steps, explain the role of the European regulator not only as being a gatekeeper but also as an enabler supporting successful development, marketing authorization and market access. Both established approaches and specific new ones provided by the European regulatory network will be presented and discussed based on anonymized examples and discussion of practical cases and questions contributed by workshop attendees.
